Whether you are a beginner or an advanced knitter, the Fruity Knitting Podcast will open you up to a vast world of knitwear designers, knitting patterns, yarns, knitting techniques, sheep breeds, and other fiber animals! This episode features an interview with the Wollspinnerei Vetsch, a family-run woolen mill in the countryside of Switzerland! We also visit a German gingerbread bakery in North Bavaria. Andrea shows you how to knit and sew up a Christmas toy by Alan Dart, which Andrea made as a Christmas gift. Madeleine talks about the 3 Christmas balls she recently knitted, designed by Arne and Carlos. In Under Construction, Andrea discusses why she is reknitting her Barbroe Blouse by Knitting For Olive. In Bring & Brag, Madeleine shows off her "Gladden" sweater, a design by Kim Hargreaves, which is covered in lace and bobbles and has oversized sleeves. For a moment, Madeleine worried the sleeves turned out too large. Wondering what other people thought of oversized sleeves, she discovered that in 16th-century Venice, your sleeves were confiscated if they were too large!
