This month’s show is Restylin’.
It all came about when I started shaking the dreams from my hair. Restylin' is about my transition in sewing and wardrobe style . It involves looking at patterns in a new-to-me way, and working my brain around ways I want clothes to fit me.
The Enchanted by Sewing Podcast is, an extension of my regular sewing blog - Me Encanta Coser, which, roughly translated means, Enchanted By Sewing
My blog is written in English. The name celebrates the historical and modern use of the beautiful Spanish Language in the San Francisco Bay Area of California, where I live.
This month I’m working on creating two tee shirts M6078 and V8323. The details are in these blog postings from MeEncantaCoser.blogspot.com

Hello! Your Aran sweater comments perked up my ears! I am a knitter who wants to learn to use her sewing machine, and I have been being inspired by your podcast. Aran sweaters are named after the Aran Islands off the coast of Ireland where they originated. They are made of undyed sheep's wool, hence the creamy color. Wool naturally is covered in a "greasy" substance called lanolin, which makes the yarn water-resistant. The women of the Islands would make the sweaters for their fisherman husbands; the lanolin helping them to keep dry from the spray of the ocean and the patterns of cables making the sweaters thicker, and therefore warmer. The legend goes that each man's sweater had a different pattern of cables so if he drowned and was washed ashore his body could be identified, but that appears to be untrue. Thanks for the podcast!
ReplyDeleteHey Emano, I can't believe I didn't respond to your interesting post! That was exactly the kind of thing I would like to know. Thank you so much for taking the time to come to the show notes :-)
DeleteNot a problem! I figured you were just busy and didn't check the blog often between your posts.
