#225: Destashing Online with Caroline from Destasher
Podcast: Check Your Thread: Sewing More SustainablyPublished On: Mon May 11 2026
Description: There are lots of online marketplaces out there through which you can sell or give away your unwanted crafting materials, but they all have their drawbacks. Destasher is a new UK -based platform JUST for sewists and yarn crafters wanting to buy, sell, giveaway or claim materials and supplies within the maker community. Its creator, Caroline, tells me what makes Destasher such a great option for those of us trying to make more sustainably and affordably. Support the podcast over on Patreon!
