Episode 49 – Repeat Performance!

PlayPlay

This week, I am using the same yarns a couple of times!  All ravelry links should be able to be seen by non-Ravelry users and will include all information about the project.

Reminders: Mercedes KAL and Teal-Tember for Ovarian Cancer Awareness – I’m going to be wearing Essie in Naughty Nautical for the month.

FO’s: Exchange Bag and Scylla Socks (please forgive me – need to update my pictures)

WIPs: Girl Friday for KAL, Sockies, Black Mamba, Baby Brain Beanie.

Spinning – I discuss Falkland and my Gnomeacres Gnomeberry Falkland and the potential for socks!  I think it’s a go!

I sewed a bag, it was an almost fail.  Laugh with me, people.

No acquisitions!

Review – Embellish Knit.  If you have a lot of icord to make, it’s the awesome.

What’s up with me?  This rug.  It’s mint green.

Episode 48 – You Know How I Feel About Lace!

I’m in a no show notes sort of mood, so here’s a list, but no links.  Sorry!

Mercedes craft-along.

Featured FO by adamyoeckel on ravelry.

Wips: Girl Friday by Mercedes, Scylla Socks, and Exchange Bag.

Spinning: Gnomeacres.  Help?

Acquisitions: Gale’s Art and an Embellish Knit

Review: Interweave Knits Fall 2013.

I Just Discovered: Rose Beck.

There are birds in my backyard!

Also: the color was a little weird.  I guess the whole “time of day” thing does make a big difference; I was using the same setup that is usually the awesomesauce.
