Very interesting interview (k, can i please develop some of their DNA and get some ab’s like that? smile please??) I love how designers are keeping just one step ahead of trends and looking back at revamping a few classics!

Another great interview. I don’t crochet but these patterns may change my mind on that.

Wow! Have been enjoying your podcasts for some time now but really enjoyed this one. Erika & Monika are just adorable and I have never been inspired to crochet…until now. The book looks awesome and I’m going to have to get it. Thanks for always doing such great interviews!

I have this podcast linked to my ipod. LOVE it! Mixing new styles with old within the world of crochet makes “Çrochet hip”. The book is going to be exciting to review! What joy it is to go into a book store and find the customers searching for crochet and craft books are made up of all ages! Granny was cool back then, and she still is!

Wow, these sisters are so inspiring. They are into so many different things and I love that they are still doing all these things. They haven’t felt a need to specialize and cut out their other interests….I love that, because I have trouble narrowing my interests down.

Thanks for another great show. I got into crocheting a few years back and was lucky enough to get to spend some time crocheting with my Oma before she passed away – she was an incredible crocheter – even at 83. So I love hearing about ways it is being kept alive and well. Every time I pick up a hook and yarn, I always think of my Oma and it brings a smile to my face. Keep up the great work. Cheers.

I really appreciate all the time you spend on the podcasts. They really make my drive to work! I get to work and I am so inspired. (Which is a good thing since I work with many little hands.)

I loved this interview! And, the designs are amazing- it is fantastic to see exciting crochet designs. I used to do a ton of crochet years ago… maybe someday I’ll find some photos and post them on my blog!

I love these sisters work. Haven’t made any of their designs yet, but it’s on my to-do list!

Funny I was just checking this book out online a couple of days ago to see if I might want it. After listening to your chat with Erica I know I want this book. I love that they being young ladies are here helping to keep crochet alive.

I just heard your podcast for the first time today and listened to the interview with Ms. Simmons. I tend to view crochet as difficult, since I taught myself how to crochet when I was about 18 – about 7 years after I learned to knit (back in the olden days).
It is so encouraging to see two beautiful, talented and very creative women making their living with their talents – and their work is just beautiful. Thank you!
Take care,

Wow – clearly all that talent and drive (and beauty!) had to be split between 2 people, it’s only right.

I loved the flow of this episode – Erika had me feeling very inspired and totally proud of the things we all create. I like her philosophy in general to just make creativity part of who you are and what you do all the time.

I started out with crochet and I’m constantly finding ways to use it to enhance, fix, and finish my knitting projects.

You’re a pro at these interviews Jennifer – keep them coming please!

To late for the drawing I am sure but I just wanted to say how inspiring this podcast is. I’ve been really motivated to get back to designing and already have two new ideas brewing! So thanks very much to you and to Erika!!

You two are equally beautiful and talented. It’s amazing to see how God works through you within your craft. I am just waiting to find out when you are going to do a line for kids!!!!

I love your work, but both your links send to a generic sales site
