Down Cellar Studio Podcast

BostonJen has been recording from her cellar studio since 2012, and the name is literal -- she crafts and records from a cozy basement workspace that's become something of a character in the show itself. With a 4.8-star rating from 313 reviews, Down Cellar Studio is one of the most consistently well-received knitting podcasts around. The biweekly episodes cover a wide range of fiber arts territory: knitting and crochet projects (she's particularly fond of socks and sweaters), spinning, yarn acquisitions, and fiber festival reports. But Jen also folds in photography, book recommendations, and personal life updates in a way that feels natural rather than forced. What sets this show apart is the community Jen has built. She runs knit-alongs that give listeners shared projects to work on, and the show notes are detailed enough that you can follow along with exactly what she's making. Listeners describe her voice and style as welcoming and warm, the kind of podcast you put on during a long car ride or a quiet evening of knitting. She doesn't rush, and she doesn't try to be everything to everyone. The pace is deliberate and unhurried, matching the rhythm of the craft itself. If you're looking for a solo-hosted show with substance and a strong sense of place, Jen's cellar studio is a great spot to spend some time.
