Thinking Through Making | Elevating the everyday object, creative spaces & living intentionallyEmma Robinson2024-02-16 | A conversation with Northern Irish ceramicist Laura Boyd
I knit the Cloud Sweater by PetiteKnit, the Stalk & Pip beret by Ailbiona, and chat about my new sample knit- The Galway Bay Shawl by TheWoolBarrow.
I also talk through all my recent knitting fails, knitting dreams and my works in progress. I cast on a new fun pair of colourwork socks, a project that made me loose my knitting mojo and the joys of german short rows in the Chestnut Sweater- a new cast on- by Petiteknit. I also show lots of my natural dyeing experiments including my eco-printed yarn- which I dyed with flowers I grew from seed in my dye garden, here in Northern Ireland.Knitting, baking & dyeing | two warm days after a summer of rainEmma Robinson2024-09-19 | PATREON *For exclusive twice monthly vlogs*: patreon.com/WoollyMammothFibreCompany
