On today’s Taking Back Friday vlog, I’m delighted to be talking with Grace O’Neillย โ a fellow fibre lover from Limerick, on the west coast of Ireland.
About five years ago, Grace starting making knitting vlogs and podcasts on YouTube as she traveled around the world, and in the past several years, she has had her hand in dyeing, spinning, knitting, and weaving. She actually knit her own wedding dress, which we are going to talk about today too.
Today’s conversation is super fun โ Grace is hilarious to chat with, so join me and let’s meet Grace!
Thank you so much to Grace for chatting with me, and, if you haven’t already, be sure to go and check out her YouTube channel!
