The Last Time I Saw You

This week I have six finished objects! And I've pulled two projects from the Basket of Shame. I'm making plans for Vlogmas 2021 and I'm looking forward to all of them! We also have a new addition to the farm. 

I also spend a little time talking about the loss of a sweet knitting friend.

Listen here.


This corner of my craft room is getting a makeover for Vlogmas 2021.

Pepper Jam and The Curling Mist Shawl

 This episode, I have finished a pair of vanilla socks and I'm almost finished with the Curling Mist Shawl.  I have plans to cast on the second shawl from the current season of Helen Stewart's Shawl Society, the Silver River Shawl.

The container garden is doing well.  I'm harvesting 100+ peppers a week!  Also, pepper jam is not fool proof.

Take Two

This week, it took two tries to record the episode.  I finished a couple of projects and I can share the test knit I was working on last month.  We spent some time at the lake and I went kayaking for the first time.  We also had a rough week on the farm.

Also, I'm pretty sure I said "microphone" when I meant "microscope".

The Basket of Shame

This week, I have lots of finished projects because it's been so long- so very, very long- since I released an episode. I finished my Tea with Jam and Bread pullover, several pairs of socks, three baby hats and several shawls, one of them made from the "world's ugliest color". 

There's also farm news.  We have two Pyr puppies, Buster and Keaton.  They are 7 months old and almost 70 pounds each. 

Listen here.

I Didn't Hate It

This week, I finished the Slider Gloves and enjoyed knitting them, like a lot.  Who knew knitting individual fingers could be so addictive? 

I also cast on the Luminary Socks by Curious Handmade. I didn't get much done but I'm looking forward to working on them.

There are new bags in the Bede Sisters Etsy shop and I'm a sponsor of the Splash Pad Party KAL with Down Cellar Studio.

Listen here.
