Episode 31: The One Without The Knitting
Hello from a drizzly Cheshire Plain. In this episode I talk about all the other things I've been doing instead of knitting, play with a new toy and wax lyrical about squash.
We have a listeners' map! Please go on over to pop in a pin - I'd love to see where you all are!
Not on the Needles (!): Something that will potentially become a Kauni Wrap...
...some Tunisian crochet...
...some scrap spinning...
...and some Polymer buttons.
Review: Mayan Spinnner Kit, £15 plus p&p. including a hand-carded batt and instructions, from Crafts From The Dungeon.
Giveaway: To win a pretty Mayan Spinner just like mine, leave a comment here, on the show notes at the http://www.yarnsfromtheplain.blogspot.com/ site or over at the Ravelry group, finishing off this sentence: "I want to win a Mayan Spinner because..." Leave your comment by 24th November 2011.
Something I really like: Cooking with squashes! One favourite is a stuffed squash using a Schwartz Spices mix, another is a risotto I created this week, using roasted chunks of butternut squash and chorizo.
Links: Scandinavian Knitting Design; Fibre & Clay; Heike Gittins' blog and the Knitsisters website; Clayaround;
Music: Rondopolska by Barry Philips, from the album Tråd, available from Magnatune.

TTFN, Nic
