Fiber Sprite Podcast Episode 005

11/6/2019

 
Here is the fourth episode of the Fiber Sprite Podcast! On this show, I'll talk about projects I've been working on and my visit to the Taos Wool Festival.

Knitting:

  • Sock blocker
  • 2BEwe (the yarn I'm using for my sweater)

Designing:

  • My initial sweater plans are here and here and also here
  • Fashionary journal. On the podcast, I complained about the size, but you can buy larger templates.
  • Head counts: fashion drawing versus reality
  • MyBodyModel
  • Using a schematic to create a pattern
  • Knitter's graph paper (this is great for working out stitch patterns, but when I'm designing to scale, I use regular old graph paper)
  • Knitting Without Tears
  • Elizabeth's Percentage System
  • The Opinionated Knitter
  • Sweater I'm wearing in the podcast, which is based on the Brooks Sweater in the Opinionated Knitter
  • Sally Melville's Knitting Pattern Essentials
  • Amy Herzog's Ultimate Sweater Book

Spinning:

  • The Woolly Lizard
    • Chain ply vs. Three Ply Yarn
  • Galaxy
  • Glacier Sunrise
  • Manx Loaghtan
  • Using the Spinner's Multitool to spin a consistent yarn

Weaving:

  • The seam I used is a French seam that I then flat felled. More on seam finishes here.
  • Jacket Band Yarns
    • Malabrigo Silkpaca (warp yarn)
    • Yampa Valley Fiberworks (weft yarn)
  • Gingerbread Cottage

Books:

  • Vanishing Fleece
  • Making a Life
