F This Knit

We have news, Finished Objects, Works in Progress, Cast Ons, and Stash Enhancements for you. The topic for this month is love. We've all had a rough time these past few weeks and we just wanted to take some time to remind ourselves and each other about love. Self-love, friend-love, and love for our wonderful fiber community. Continue the discussion on our Forums.

Warning, the end of the episode really devolves in to a huge discussion of Animal Crossing New Horizons.
