Ep 113 recorded  3/16/23 Marching On

Welcome back!  I just had a statistic pop up telling me that 2 days ago was my 6th podiversary.  Wow!

Knit For Food Knitathon

I’m back for a 3rd year – can you please donate $5? No one deserves to be hungry.

WIPs

Songe d’été – Ravelry Link (Summer Dreams) designed by Dreaming In Chocolate Designs, knit using Linea Pura Unico yarn by Lana Grossa (discontinued).

Davit designed for Berroco by Amy Palmer, knit using Silk Noir by Great Adirondack Yarn Co 

Summer Happiness Crochet Top designed by Concept Creative in Scheepjes Whirl in the color Sherbert Rainbow

Find Your Fade designed by Andrea Mowry, knit in Midori Bamboo from The Fiber Lady in a discontinued colorway, plus cotton/bamboo sportweight from Great Adirondack Yarn Co.  

Knitting Fail

Really, a crochet fail.  My brain has been a sieve and I kept screwing up the Summer Happiness top.  It’s a problem with me, not with the pattern.  

Spinning

More progress on my current spin, some beautiful green lightly-speckled cotton from Buchanan Fiber. Unfortunately, Buchanan Fiber closed a year or two ago which is sad because I love their cotton slivers.
