Interview with Joan M-M and Lingerie Hardware Kits
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to let you know that our very own KLS member Adrienne has her interview posted with Joan McGowan-Michael as part of her latest Inspirational Wednesday podcast. It's great - check it out - and leave some positive feedback on iTunes or their show notes if you like the podcast. I don't know how she gets time to podcast with everything else she does, but she and her co-host Toya do it consistently, and do a great job of it at that!
I also was browsing around on Joan's web site and found hardware kits for some of the lingerie items, like adjustable straps and slides for the garters - but I really was impressed with the corset kit and the bra kit. Less than $10 each, these have everything you need as far as underpinnings for these more unique knitted garments. There is also a one-piece wonder kit for $14.50, still reasonable given the (seeming) complexity of this garment. I admit that I had wondered where I would get some of these "ingredients", and now I feel like I could tackle knitting these as I would have the components.





I listened to the podcast this afternoon while I dyed some yarn. Lovely job to both of you! It was so fun to hear Joan talk about her inspirations, favorite designs and how she became a knitwear designer. Listening to her talk about her time spent in the bridal industry reminded me of my own brief period doing alterations for bridal wear. Never again!
