What is Fiber Beat? ~~
Fiber Beat is not your regular knitting podcast. In fact, it covers a range of crafts using the fiber medium, such as spinning, weaving, felting, dyeing, shepherding, & crocheting. You can expect interviews with designers, authors, farmers, & businesses. WonderMike, editor-in-chief and intrepid reporter presents instructional video podcasts as well as product reviews. If you have a story, you'd like to share, give WonderMike a shout on Ravelry or leave a comment in the show notes!


Sponsoring Fiber Beat ~~
Fiber Beat is now accepting sponsorship. If you'd like to underwrite the show, please contact WonderMike who can give you rates and options.


Production Assistance ~~
Fiber Beat is a labor of journalistic love that requires considerable preparation, both before and after the actual interview. We use various audio/computer equipment to record, edit and publish each episode of the show. Your donations make this work possible. Thank you very much!!!

Fiber Beat Video Supplement #1: No Bar Increase & Moccasin Socks from WonderMike on Vimeo.

Fiber Beat 001 "Schoolhouse Socks!"

There's a million crafters in Fiber City and we've all got a yarn to spin.

Welcome new listeners and now, VIEWERS, to our first Video Supplement to Fiber Beat. We're very impressed (and quite nervous) by the amount of work that goes into a video production. Please be gentle with your critique, but, we do want to know what you think and what works and what doesn't work for you!

The following people, places and things were mentioned:


Don't forget about the very first Fiber Beat CONTEST

I have the pattern for the Moccasin Sock by Elizabeth Zimmermann PLUS two skeins of Québécoise in navy blue & forest green to give away. All you need to do is tell us what what you have learned from Schoolhouse Press?

To enter, please leave a comment on fiberbeat.com or on the Fiber Beat Ravelry forum. The winner will be randomly selected from all the entries. DEADLINE FOR ENTERING IS OCTOBER 30, 2009. I look forward to seeing what everyone has to say!


A MASSIVE thank you to everyone who downloaded and listened to the first episode of Fiber Beat. Now that you've had a chance to watch the Fiber Beat Video Supplement, let me know what you think and leave a review on iTunes!

We used snippets and variations of the following song in this episode:

  • "Fiber Beat Theme" performed by Anthony Bonet (Exclusive to Fiber Beat, 2009)

ETA: Several people have asked me about the spindles in the beginning shot (on the desk) and I'm listing them here:

My name is WonderMike and I'll see YOU on the Fiber Beat.
