Sticks & String Podcast
A podcast by an Australian bloke who knits
This week we have the first of the extended interviews; Ann Feitelson of Fair Isle knitting fame joins me for a chat about Fair Isle and other things to do with her knitting. Ann's book is listed below and is a wonderful overview of Fair Isle knitting and contains lots of patterns.
There are also steam trains in this week's show too.
