I thought podcasts were good and interesting, but this one is real. It talks about real things, with real people, getting into the topics like money, health and time management that are often left out. I’m so glad I stumbled upon it, listening and finding myself a community of people through fibre.

I’ve heard Ani (the host) describe herself as a “low risk person just running a podcast and working a day job” but what this podcast contributes to the landscape of textiles is so so so much more! Ani is a gentle guide through varied perspectives, bringing compassion and interest to each. She is...Read full review »

I love Ani’s podcast and what she’s all about. As a maker, I often get discouraged as the making world has blown up on instagram etc., and I find it hard to remember why I’m even making. Ani’s instagram and podcast provide a warm and open, safe space where there’s no competition. She focuses on...Read full review »

I found Close Knit a couple of days ago and have been trying not to marathon my way through episodes because I want to savor it. This podcast feels like a warm hug.

I love hearing about all of the...Read full review »

This is just what I need in my life. Besides mum, I don't know anyone who is into fiber arts of any kind so it's a very solitary practice for me. I love listening to Close Knit while I craft as it's like crafting amongst friends, full of diverse conversation with interesting people...Read full review »

Ani finds interesting knitters, weavers, spinners and other finer artists to interview. As she is based in Australia, I've been introduced to many new artists I may not have otherwise found (although her interviews are not exclusively Australian.) I love that she asks questions about the...Read full review »

As a fiber artist myself, I feel like it's always inspiring to hear how others came to the craft and connect with the similarities and differences in our stories and mediums. Ani is an American based in Australia, so I'm finding we are getting a lot of views from both Oceania and North...Read full review »

This is by far the BEST fiber art podcast. Every episode has interviews with very interesting artist ms and is full of ideas, information, and inspiration. I look forward to every episode and hope there many more to come.

Ani has made a great podcast- these are incredibly authentic conversations; I feel like I’m hanging out with friends. The guests are eager to share their processes, journies, and inspirations- just as much as I’m keen on hearing them. As instagram becomes the place for fiber arts to be showcased,...Read full review »

Ani does a great job of finding and interviewing people with a strong passion for their craft. As I listen, I find myself looking up arts and crafts people from the 19th century to the present day, and I am wowed by them all. Being of the radio rather than the internet generation, I also love the...Read full review »
