Yarns at Yin Hoo

Since receiving my stenciled fabric from FiberTrek Sarah, I’ve been in a stitch trance. In this episode, I talk about starting my first Alabama Chanin-inspired garment.  There’s a bit of knitting, a recommendation for a tile-placement game, and poems by Nobel prize winner Louise Glück.

We went apple picking near Kerhonkson, NY.  Determined to remember what we picked, I asked Samuel to photograph apples with their markers.  The Cox Orange Pippin was new to me and a tremendous find, with sweet and tart in each bite and a very nice texture for eating out of hand.

It was an adventurous weekend, with crafting ups and downs, and a new pattern release.  Thank you so much for joining me. Pictured here is my first piece of shisha embroidery, thanks to the teaching of Shanaz Khan and her online course at Tatter!

Deep in the Forest, a cowl in fingering OR worsted weight yarn, will be released with tiered pricing.  This is your final chance to purchase the first design in my Women Who Run with the Wolves collection, Taking Back the River socks (RAVELRY LINK), at tiered pricing.  Thank you for your purchases and your support of the podcast.

In anticipation of the hungry ghost moon, here is Episode 255 for your listening enjoyment.  I talk about knitting projects, and some stitching.  I also share a poem and provide an overview of the CAN Retreat.
