Reviews
Nice things listeners have said:
"How can you possibly beat an intelligent, articulate, witty Brit who talks about knitting and can play the ukuele?"
"I love this and I don't knit."
"I'm already a podcast junkie, but you've hit the spot with this one, it's fab to hear some thoroughly British broadcasting about knitting!"
"I have a sneaking suspicion that the podcaster known as Hoxton Handmade is really a collaboration between Stephen Fry writing the 'casts and Keeley Hawes narrating them."
"Great voice, good content, comfortable tone and pace, and overall good taste!"
"Infinitely listenable, clever and well-produced"
"My husband kept giving me funny looks because I was laughing so much!"
“Electric Sheep is a must-listen podcast from London-based knitter and guitarist, who also writes the Hoxton Handmade blog. She broadcasts her latest news and views of the day, looking at art, film, music, comedy and knitting (of course!)” Let's Knit! Magazine
"The best new knitting podcast and decidedly one of the very best of all time. I can't recommend it enough."
"Love-love-love these sheep!"

Episode 5: Fact & Fiction
This week we’re talking about fantasy knitting, when the project in your head isn’t quite the project in your hands.
Then, if your grasp of your finances is more fiction than fact, here are a few places to find some credit-crunch friendly yarn.
Plus some ideas of free ways to enjoy London and a village in Kent that’s been celebrating a fictional version of itself.
it’s so true – you know a piece must be amazing if, once you subtract suggested lifestyle from the photoshoot and are just left with the garment, it still looks tempting!
