Pardon My Stash

Listening to this pod is like sitting in on a fiber arts club (which is great since I dont have one) with close friends. There's discussion of current projects, personal events, fiber art-related preferences, new crafting knowledge, and general goofiness. I smile and laugh at the antics every time. This is not so much an education-focused pod (so skip if thats exclusively what you want) but I have learned terms and techniques to go investigate throughout the episodes. Also a comfortable (and comforting) listen if you are queer, neurodivergent, and/or fat - these folks are unabashedly themselves, acknowledge how these qualities affect their fiber crafting and personal lives, and teasing comes from an affectionate and accepting place. I love listening when I want to be crafting but can't, or while I'm actively knitting!

Edit of Edit lol: Please come back soon😭 Hey ya’ll!! First off, love listening to you guys, it makes me laugh, contemplate life, and most of all further addict me to my crafts (mainly crocheting) it hilarious because I almost never knit, so hearing you spit terms left and right gives me giggles since I have no idea what you’re talking about😂 Quick tip, I like to make quilts, amigurumi, pillows, etc., so I use stuffing a lot. I used to throw away lost frogged projects because they wouldn’t come out all the way, but now I save it for stuffing, it works great! I had two regular sized trash bags FILLED TO THE BRIM with scrap yarn and scrapped projects, so I turned it into a bean bag and wrapped a mattress cover over it and my other bean bag, thus my bean couch was created. Soooo yeah! Helpful trick I learned😜 Thanks again for recording your hilarious and relatable conversations, it’s really helped me get stuff done🤩

I’m a new listener but a long time (15 years) knitter, and this podcast feels like the knitting circle I’ve always wanted! I’ve been knitting since I was 11 years old but am on the younger side of the knitting community. I’m also really shy so it’s been a struggle to put myself out there to meet other crafters. This podcast feels like listening to a fun group of older knitting sisters while I work on my endless WIP list. Love y’all!!!

I’ve been knitting for years, and I’ve recently been longing for a group of knitting friends! This podcast has been such a blessing because the girls just gab, knit, and keep me company while I knit solo in my home. The conversations are always lively, hilarious, and encouraging! Hearing of their fails, successes, and hilarious mistakes while knitting makes me feel seen and even more willing to share my journey with others. They have inspired me to begin to teach others how to knit and to even knit a lace garment after one of them called lacework, “intentional holes”. Thank you ladies!
