In this episode, the girls talk about winter accessories. Danie busts many moves, and Susie got bit hard by a knitty bug.

Contest

The 2015 LegendPrairie contest is running! Post in the Ravelry thread and tell us about your favorite fibery FO of the year.

Events

We're going to the Knitting Pipeline Retreat February 26-27, 2015 in Washington, IL!

Finished Projects

Susie started and finished her Cousteau Hat using With Pointed Sticks Rollerball Worsted in Ice Queen. It is her new favorite hat and she is basically living it now that it's turned bitterly cold.

Danie finished her Fuzzy Hat, complete with fur trim and pom-pom. She also finished a pair of kid mittens, sheep sweaters, Bronco socks (with proven winning mojo!), some boot socks, and a Bluebird of Happiness.

Current Projects

Danie worked on a pair of husband socks, and on her Stained Glass Sock Yarn Blanket. She also started a pair of mittens out of her Fuzzy Hat leftovers, and has decided to make them fingerless mitts instead. She also started amazing self-striping socks using Kirbywirby Self-Striping Fingering in Circus Poodles.

Susie worked on the second of her Socks in the Name of Science and has just gotten to the heel flap, and the first sleeve of her Glenfiddich sweater. She also cast on her Infinito, and has pretty much knit on nothing else since.

Enhance the Stash

In addition to the skein of Rollerball Worsted she used for her hat, Susie also acquired a skein of Ballpoint Sock in All Is Bright from With Pointed Sticks.
