Welcome to Knitters Gotta Eat!



Knitters Gotta Eat is a collaborative knitting/domestic arts video podcast. It all began because we love sharing our love of doing. We know that many of our viewers will share our enthusiasm for learning the arts of running a multifaceted household, cooking, baking, fermenting, keeping chickens, and gardening, as well as the fiber arts! Look for our first episode to be uploaded to You Tube later this week.

Please let us know in the comments what types of domestic arts interest you, and thank you for watching.
