Customer Reviews
Fantastic!
I always look forward to Weavecast, and I'm not a weaver! Yet. Syne puts together an organized, interesting and entertaining show. She has excellent guests, and she explains a lot of the mysterious (to me, anyway) handweaving terminology, so you don't even have to be a weaver to enjoy it. Her voice is lovely to listen to, also. She's like a weaving siren, pulling us all into yet another fiber obsession.
It's like having your own weaving mentor!
I love Weavecast!! I get downright giddy when I see there is a new download! I was so inspired by Syne that I now own two weaving looms. I have only been weaving for about a month. One day I will move on to the floor looms. I will forever be grateful that I found Weavecast! Great reviews, interviews. Check it out!
Enticing podcast
WeaveCast is a pleasure to listen to, whether you weave or not. Syne's literate and witty exploration of her art form entices the listener to consider running right out to buy a loom. Besides, her clear explanation of the process clarifies the sometimes mysterious steps involved in this ancient (and very contemporary) art form. Love it. From a knitter who spins, too.
