In this episode, the girls do a deep-dive into knitting with handspun. Susie can't carry a tune in a bucket, and Danie is a show-stopper. Miscellaneous things mentioned include With Pointed Sticks' Killer Fall Collection, Danie's and PrairiePoppin's (of Imagined Landscapes) prairie-inspired collaboration, Danie's collaboration with The Rusted Stitch and Lucia of the Knitted Paradise video podcast, the Cables & Arans Harmony Guide, and Melissa Schaschwary's designs. Listen here. Finished Projects Susie finished the 4th Birthday Socks, and the Alight Cowl. Danie finished several earbud pouches based on Mary Keenan's Earbud Pouch pattern, but modified for her toe-up preferences. Current Projects Susie started her second Newborn Bonnet & Wrap Set, and finished the bonnet. She also made some progress on her Threshold and has past the sleeve-joining point, and started her Ripple Ribbed Socks. Danie has been crushing the cables in her Tour de Fleece handspun in a modified Elda Cardigan. Enhance the Stash Danie acquired an amazing and endlessly useful NeedleBook from 19 Stitches. Susie acquired a wrist ruler from LVLY that she saw on Black Mountain Yarn Shop's Instagram feed, a skein of Leading Men Fiber Arts Show Stopper in The Great Sweater Debate, and the most fabulous zippered sock-sized project bag and matching WIPminder from Suburban Stitcher. Knits on Screen Susie has been enjoying Slow TV's National Knitting Evening on Netflix, and you know there is some serious knits on screen on a show like that.
