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!"

My love affair with shawls continues, in this case with the Traveling Woman pattern. The yarn is the beautiful Wellington Sock Yarn from The Thylacine; A jeweled sock yarn made from superwash merino with 25% nylon, which gives it a lovely … Continue reading
Fit for a superhero…
As you may now from the podcast, I’ve been working on Stephen West’s Daybreak shawl: Which still needs blocking but is done in plenty of time for Christmas. But I thought it was the perfect pattern to adapt for a … Continue reading
Selfish Knitting
Overe here in Hoxton Towers, I am super cosy thanks to these woolly creatures: Yes, as mentioned last week, I have joined the masses and made myself an Ishbel in Malabrigo lace. This is the small version. I read on … Continue reading
