Let's Talk Lavender: Stories for Knitters, Stitchers and Creative Crafters

Come craft with me. I have a story to tell you.


Let’s Talk Lavender is a storytelling podcast for knitters, stitchers and creative crafters — a place for curious stories about ordinary objects, peculiar discoveries, people, nature, memory and the small things we might otherwise pass by.


The subject changes from week to week. You might find yourself thinking about a forgotten photograph, why birds sing, an eccentric neighbor, an old pair of scissors that lasted twenty years, a peculiar custom, a much-loved sweater, or some tiny mystery hidden in something completely ordinary.


Bring your knitting, stitching or whatever you’re making, and come along for the story.
