The first show of 2017!!  Kicking things off with a new spin, an old (ish) project, a review and plenty of enthusiasm! Thanks for joining me! Knitting | Brio Garter Hat by Stephen West Stopover Pullover by Mary Jane Mucklestone, and using techniques from Amy Herzog's first Craftsy class, Knit to Flatter (this is an affiliate link, and using it to purchase this Craftsy class helps support the podcast without any additional cost to you) Mason Jar Cozy 3 Ways by Melissa Kwan Review | We take a look at Hong Kong based KPC Yarn. With 4 base fiber offerings, each coming in at least 3 different yarn weights and 40 to 60 different colors, they are definitely worth a second look! Thank you to KPC Yarn for providing the yarn and swatches for review! Hand Spinning | Combo Spin with Into The Whirled Falkland in the il tramonto colorway and Spunky Eclectic Falkland in Nebula - both were club colorways from the spring of 2015. I walk you through my planning and fiber prep for this project.  I will be spinning it on using the smallest whorl on the regular flyer on my Lendrum spinning wheel. I also give an update on my Pigeonroof Studios Shetland singles I talked about on the last episode.
