Episode 89: Back to an hour

Saturday, January 12, 2012

This episode brings you a couple of finish objects, as well as the progress on two other WIPS. I talk briefly about the KAL/CAL/SALs currently going on as well as share my use of a few fitness/diet retaliated apps and forums. There is also a tutorial for hand painted yarn dyeing with kook-aid. Enjoy!
