_______________________________________________________________
Show and Tell knitting podcast focuses on vintage (and vintage-inspired) hand knit garments, how to make them and how to accessorize them. Your host, Billie ("billietoy"), uses costume jewelry, hats, handbags, gloves and scarves to style each sweater.

Some episodes include guest knitters from around the world who will showcase their personal collections.

You'll meet new knitters with a passion for vintage 1940s style, while others will be retirees who have been knitting for decades. Each will share selections from their portfolio of retro garments, from cardigan sweaters to jumpers / pullovers to coats and jackets. You're likely to see patterns or yarns that will inspire you, particularly if you love vintage fashion.

Besides taking you through knitting projects, we'll have some laughs and go on some adventures together.
