Yarns and Tales

Howdy y’all! Welcome to episode 70 of Yarns and Tales.  I jump right into the preemie hat variation that I mentioned in last week’s show.  After getting everyone caught up on the project, I go on to the ‘tale’ portion of the show — the creation of my cheese gravy for supper.  Curious about the […]

Well, howdy y’all! Welcome to episode 69 of Yarns and Tales!  Today, I’ll work on the first variation of the Teeny Tiny Tube Sock pattern from episode 67 and the posted pattern about it.  I’ll keep it simple and easy today with a Stockinette rendition. Remember, we want this to remain an everybody-can-do-this project as […]

Howdy y’all! Welcome to episode 68 of Yarns and Tales.  It’s all about those tiny heads this week as our project is an old preemie hat pattern I created from more than a decade ago (with a tweak here and there).  This very basic hat works as a preemie hat, doll hat, or a teaching […]

Well, howdy y’all!! Welcome to Yarns and Tales Episode 67.  This time around we cover a delicate matter — itty bitty feet.  Yes, those toes which belong to premature babies.  Tiny feet require tiny socks, but tiny socks can be quick and easy for all skill levels except for the unlearned (and pronounce that with […]

Well, howdy y’all! It’s episode 66 of YaT, and I finish up the Spring bonnet project we started a couple of shows back then share with y’all my recent “Christmas from Hell” tale (but it’s not what ya think!).  This is a fun show, so find ya a spot, get situated, and let’s get started!  […]

It’s episode 65 of Yarns and Tales, and I ran it a little backwards today by telling my tales before the bonnet.  Of course, this worked up an appetite because after the bonnet came the lasagna!  But the biggest curiosity was this question: How do you reignite your creativity after burnout?  Get settled.  It’s time […]

Howdy y’all! Welcome to episode 64 of Yarns and Tales.  Today, we are hookers, as in crochet.  I know what you were thinking (wink, wink).  Anyway, in this show, I chat about the project for this week and next week.  It’s a two-color Spring baby bonnet, and it’s another revLea ‘original’.  Yes, I’m making it […]

Well, howdy, y’all.  Welcome to episode 63 of YaT.  Today, I explain what Spring really is in the South, chat about not one but two projects, and close out the podcast with food thoughts and Silent Mouth Syndrome.  Curious?  Get yourself settled and have a listen!

Well, howdy y’all! It’s episode 62!  Red tape instead of red yarn is enough to make a yarnie scream and beg for yarn therapy! Oh, wait, I just didn’t scream. Join me as I finish up a WIP and justify future hours of yarn therapy as well as share with y’all some fabulous news.  Get […]

This week’s episode is a bit more energetic than last week’s, and by “a bit more” I mean a lot.  Episode 61 carries us from the almost-forgotten amigurumi mouse-like critter to a glove pattern to naming patterns to agelessness and to snobs of the fiber kind and the experience kind.  Get settled in, folks, and […]
