Millcast Episode 191: Mill Blend Lite in Grey and White
11:11 designer Logan is co-hosting this week’s Millcast to share the story behind this year’s Knit Along pattern — from where the idea began to all the thoughtful details. Plus, check out our newest Mill Blend Lite — a truly one-of-a-kind yarn spun from carefully saved mill remnants. This time, we made two beautifully coordinating neutrals: a creamy white and a rich, heathered gray.
