No show notes, other than linking you to the designer for the KAL – Mercedes Tarasovich-Clark.

Have a great week!

Episode 43 – An Impossible Deadline?

PlayPlay

Close to 200 members in the group!

Next KAL announcement – the Mercedes KAL!  Anything by Mercedes Tarasovich-Clark, runs August 1 through September 30.  I’m making the Girl Friday.

FO:  EmbQueen’s Ball Sack.  To put your cake of yarn in so it stays all nice and cozy.  Quick leftover-stash-bust project!  Thanks for sharing!

WIPs: Still working on the To Infinity cowl (see previous show notes for links to Unique Sheep and pattern) and Koi Rama.  Can I finish the shawl by Saturday?  Stay tuned to find out!

Spinning: Fell off the Tour de Fleece mountain, but did manage to get 2 ounces of the Call Box by Daizieknits spun.  Now for plying.

Acquisitions: I ordered some Game of Thrones inspired yarn from Knit and Fiber Creation and received my TriDye yarn club installment from Fiber Charmer.

Episode 42 – More of the Same

PlayPlay

Aptly named, because today you’re seeing pretty much what you saw last week.

Except my one little FO – the Cosmos Doily from American Threads.  It’s a vintage pattern.

My WIPs are the same as last week – the Scylla Socks and the To Infinity and Beyond cowl.  See links from last week.

Spinning is also the same!  It’s Tour de Fleece, and I’m hitting the wheel hard but don’t have much to show for it.  See the links for last week for the Shetland Moorit and Daizieknits Call Box.

I was wearing my Pogona shawl out of Noro King with my shawl pin from Spindlecat Studio.

Still want to make that Girl Friday out of my Malabrigo Worsted.  It will get on the needles, probably after TdF.
