Making Conversation
Making Conversation is where creativity meets real talk. We’re all about celebrating the makers, fiber artists, and creatives who bring their unique stories to the table—no matter the medium. From knitting to crocheting to spinning, each episode dives into the passions, challenges, and journeys that drive their creative work.
We get to know the people behind the projects, exploring the funny, heartfelt, and inspiring moments you won’t find just scrolling through their social media. Along the way, we’ll chat about the things that matter—diversity, inclusion, and the power of community in the making world. Grab your WIP, tune in, and get ready for some good conversations with amazing people!
