FO’s: Timey Wimey Albers Cowl, Berry Baby Hat, and a Shamrock for a necklace. (speaking of Shamrock – get your Green on for the craft-along and post a photo here by March 20!!)

Lecture on the Cotswold breed of sheep.

New Podcast!  Owl Knit With Ewe with Rachel.

A discussion of my goals…. I cut 3 minutes out of me going “um” and flipping through my show notes journal.  You’re welcome.

This week, plans get waylaid by Pax.  Stupid snow.

Announcements: The socks fit the hubs, and I am hosting a Green Craft-along to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.  Feel free to chat in the thread, and post a picture of you wearing your FO in the same thread by the morning of March 20 EST.   There will be a goody given away, and you’ll know what it is as soon as I figure it out!

Featured FO: Epic1313’s Wedding Connoisseur shawl (link may not be visible to those without a Ravelry username) for one of her bridesmaids, who is wearing said shawl today.  So sorry I couldn’t be there to see them. Please note the episode titile.

WIPs: Timey Wimey Albers Cowl, see deets on project page.  Also, my Zuzu’s Petals got started when snowed in at work (again, see episode title).  Deets also on the project page.

Spinning: KnittyandColor Merino/Silk top, Nebula colorway, spun up to be self-striping.  Will be fun to knit!

Acquisitions – Goodies from The Color Wheel and a Zoom Loom!  Please watch the episode for a code for 15% off your own Zoom Loom at the Woolery!
