This week (ep. 4) on the Close Knit Podcast, Ani chats to Emily Hundt from In the Folds. Em and I cover a lot of ground in this one - from her time in London, when she was exposed to incredible upcycled garments, to how she chooses materials and construction techniques. Everything that Em does is remarkably considered - and that has led to a beautiful aesthetic for her brand. She works primarily with reclaimed materials that works tirelessly to source. Check out closeknit.com.au/podcast/episode4 for show notes. Thanks for tuning in!
In Episode Three of the Close Knit Podcast, Ani chats to Laura Taylor of School of Hard Knots. Laura talks about her foray into crochet - and a little healthy competition with her twin sister to get her bum into gear when it came to learning more crochet skills. She formed School of Hard Knots whilst at Uni and began teaching crochet classes. Listen to our chat to hear about how Laura manages her business and her work life, and how she's grown School of Hard Knots over the past couple of years. Find all the show notes, including links to Laura’s work and other folks we mentioned in this podcast, at www.closeknit.com.au/podcast/episode3.
