gwlkLetterman sweaterI remember the episode . It was barely a garment, more a loose fishnet that could be thrown over a body with holes for head & arms. To say it was fabric is ridiculous.

TeddyQuestionsOne of the best craft podcastsI love listening to this podcast while I’m crafting. Anne always chooses such fascinating guests and conducts really insightful interviews. I’ve discovered some wonderful makers and learned more about the ones I already follow.

48TangledThreadsBrown Sheep CompanyI found this episode fascinating and informative, as I do all of your podcasts. It was especially interesting because I have used Brown Sheep wools in several projects and was delighted to hear from the people who produce it. Dealing with a small family business is a pleasure. I wish all of my shopping could be like that. I really miss going down town and buying from unique small businesses. On a personal note: I am currently undergoing chemo therapy and on my weekly chemo day I am unable to sleep. Your podcast has been a great way to relax until I finally get sleepy. I pop on my ear buds (so as not to disturb the husband), snuggle down, and learn oh so much about the crafts I love. Thank you.

JLBGGreat info!I learn so much each time I listen to Long Thread podcast. Dyes from mushrooms, spinning cordage from all kinds of fibers, animal fibers including alpaca and guanaco, plus so many different weaving traditions. Such a joy to listen each time. Thank you, Anne Merrow!

CPMinniFabulous!I love this podcast!! I find myself waiting for each episode and get very excited when a new one is released. This podcast covers so many different subjects within fiber arts and is well thought out. I also like how the interviewer is very conscious of cultures and how different cultures/people might like to share their skills and histories with the public. When I discovered it I went back and listened to every episode :)

eg portlandLove this podcastI have found many exciting textile artists, all types, by listening to this pod. I appreciate how in depth the interviews are and the overall spirit is inspirational. I usually pick up a neglected project during or after an episode and get busy while I listen. I hope this keeps going.

wanda prescottAbsolutely addictiveWhile some of the talks are so completely specialized and so much so that I don’t know what the craft looks like, there are many more podcasts that are like a thread that is pulled and a story evolves that becomes more and more fascinating with the telling. If you like hearing about diverse lives,cultures, and handcrafts, prepare to be enthralled. I especially recommend the Hawaiian quilt/ Levi Strauss episode

Junebird6Always Inspirational and InterestingI love listening to this podcast, with the fascinating fiber artists who are interviewed, and Anne Merrow, as a humble, informed, and humorous interviewer. Thank you for introducing me to so many topics, artists, and businesses.

hmmgbrdA Treasury of Wisdom and InspirationI look forward to each episode. The voices captured in this podcast weave together many decades and geographies of fiber-based ingenuity, creative play, independent thinking, innovation, and generously shared knowledge.

Indigo bagsCreativity and wellnessVery insightful on the role of creativity and creating by hand in wellness. Curious to know of any work on the wellness factor for people who do make by hand for a living - artisans the world over. Thanks for a great interview!

janepollakConversation with Melanie FalickWhat a pleasure to hear crafts spoken about at such an appreciative level! The conversation brought up so many interesting aspects of making and its value and regard in this country. I’d love to see this discussion broadened at a conference with roundtables. Thank you!

navajo churro 1Nikyle Begay Rainbow Fiber Co-opWonderful podcast, I have been out to Big Mountain many times. In 1986, a documentary by the name of Broken Rainbow was filmed winning a Grammy. This is an excellent film about the history of Hopi Partition Lands and the Navajo people who would affected by Federal Government policies.

Thread Along With MeAny D. McKnight Episode is FantasticMy mom weaved when I was a kid, but other than a few classes, I haven’t. Her excitement about weaving is so catching, it makes it sound doable! Wonderful episode!
-
canyonwren2One of the best fiber related podcastsAnne Merrow is highly skilled at interviewing her guests. I appreciate the unique lines of questioning and how she lets them talk without interjecting her own thoughts or experiences. I’ve learned about artists who’ve been around for decades running popular shops, teaching classes, writing books. Always a treat to listen and learn. Thank you for a great podcast.

Knitter PleaseSo much history.What a treat listening to your interview with Susan Druding. She has so much information on the early days of supplying materials to weavers & spinners in the 1970's. I love hearing about her experiences in the FSM. Those students were heros to me in the 1960's.
-
JoanInBoulderGreat interviews and nice varietyThanks to Anne Merrow and Long Thread Media for this wonderful podcast. I’m a weaver, but I also enjoy the podcasts about other fiber pursuits. Even though I’m not a spinner, I particularly enjoyed the recent interview with Susan Druding - what an interesting life! Living in Boulder, I also loved the interview with Judy Steinkoenig and Maggie Casey, owners of the former (and beloved) Shuttles, Spindles,

stellardesignI look forward to every episode!Thank you Long Thread Media for producing such an excellent podcast on all things fiber. I am inspired by every episode.

ajs283Great interviews but more introductions pleaseI have enjoyed many of the interviews in these podcasts. I wish there was a little more of an introduction/background information about the interviewees. I am a long time knitter and new-ish spinner, but the world of weaving mostly unknown to me. Since Longthread specializes in several different fiber arts, I would love just a little bit more information about the people/some brief explanation of the terminology used for those of us who aren't necessarily deeply familiar with every fiber art.

Duke's True LoveInteresting Every Time - High Quality ProductionIf you love fiber art, this is a wonderful and informative podcast. The production is high-quality and the topics are always very interesting. And in this time of isolation, hearing the voices of these incredible people who do what they do… Well… It means so much. Thank you to Long Thread Media. I look very forward to listening to everything available!!

KYinMAInformative and entertainingI found this podcast when I started subscribing to Piece Work magazine, and it’s become a favorite. A range of topics covers everything I’m curious in: how to run a yarn store, spinning tips, embroidery—if it’s fiber related, it’s here. I like the diversity of voices here, and how each conversation is unique. I’ve learned a lot about the cultural history of some fiber arts, as well as what draws people to learn how to spin/knit/weave/etc. It’s a well paced conversation as well, with good interviewers and excellent editing. I find it very relaxing to listen to while I knit.
