Episode 20: Holiday Crafting and Immediate Best Friends
Today, I talk with Amanda in the closet!
We talk about what projects we've been working on, crafting for the holidays and giving gifts, and the new show she is working on, Calendar Girls.
Here are the important links to check out:
Sockhead Slouch Hat by Kelly McClure. Last year, my mom and my sister picked out a skein of yarn each for me to make them one. They were supposed to get them last year, but... they had a Christmas present this year instead! My sister chose a beautiful superwash merino and Tencel blend in blues with a little bit of darker teal. It's Wonderland Mad Hatter Yarn, in an old colorway. It was so nice to work with, although the Tencel was different than what I normally use. It has this really subtle but beautiful sheen to it that I don't see with merino and nylon blends. My mom chose a skein from Yarn Experiments, with every gemstone color imaginable in it! It really suits her though, because she wears all kinds of colors year round. My mom is pretty small, so I ended up making hers a teen size, as opposed to the adult small that I made my sister. My sister-in-law and mother-in-law also got to pick out a skein each from my stash, and I started on a hat for each of them, as well. SIL chose a grey and white/speckled large stripe skein by Daydream Dyeworks, in the color Sunset Cloudbreak. I bought this yarn a few years ago during a trip to Sun Dragon in Brevard, but it looks like the owner isn't selling anymore. My MIL chose a skein from Three Irish Girls Yarn Inc. in the Kaleidoscope color. It's a cream base, with lots of bright green, yellow, pink, and blue scattered throughout. I've already finished my SIL's hat, and I'm totally jealous! It turned out gorgeous!
Be sure to check out Amanda's IG account, Beauty Truly Blent. She shows off her Ric Flair embroidery, as well as her Beard Bae series. She also takes custom orders! If you're local to WNC, be sure to look up Amanda and her shows!
Thanks for listening, and we will see you next time!

Episode 19: Amanda Talks About The Little Prince (6 months too late!)
Today I talk with Amanda about her time spent on the show The Little Prince, put on by the Montford Park Players in Asheville NC.
The girls and I went to see the show, and it was fantastic! Montford Park is an outdoor venue, which can both have a lot of setbacks, but also give a lot of creative freedom.
I'm sorry it took me so long to get this out, Amanda!
