Episode 90 - Mostly Spinning and Prizes
Saturday, January 19, 2012
Although I did do some knitting this week I don't show you any progress, because there really wasn't much on any one project. I do share my spinning progress on both the Alpaca and the Winding Wool Creek fiber. There are also prizes for the Mitten KAL, talk of Knit-topia 2014, and a tutorial on reading charts.
