Will this be the beginning of a more consistent show?! (Golly, I sure hope so...!) In this episode, I muse a bit about wanting to cultivate a more "visible" community, share a few resources from my blog that will hopefully be helpful to handmade folks (shoppers & sellers alike), and share a couple book recommendations...

Also, shout out to Reclectic Goods, my amazing crocheting friend! Please check her out at
