Episode 79: OwlPrintPanda - An Interview with Amanda B Collins

Glasgow-based knitwear designer and purveyor of super-cute stitch markers, Amanda B Collins, is our guest on the podcast today. Amanda has been designing for a few years, producing patterns for the UK knitting press, including Knit Now Magazine and Pom Pom Quarterly. She has also released her own designs in self published collections as well as a series of shawls inspired by Glasgow. Spoiler: 'Bru' is a favourite of mine. A doctor by day, she designs in the evenings, when she's not playing Wacky Races in her yellow Fiat 500. We discuss all manner of things, along with the usual questions you'd expect in the interview section. Be warned, there is some deviation down quite funny rabbit holes. Interview starts at 2:30. You can find Amanda on Twitter as @owlprintpanda and she blogs at www.owlprintpanda.blogspot.com Show notes are at www.shinybees.com Music for this episode is Adam and the Walter Boys with 'I Need a Drink'.
