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!"

Damson Dust
A humble, dusty shade of grey is brought to life in Yet Another Shawl. I’m starting to think I may have a problem… In my defense, I wear a scarf of some sort every day, so having several to choose … Continue reading
