Don’t be alarmed in this episode! Yes, that is still me avec le maquillage! There are a few tangents but mostly I include my current progress on knitting, stitching, quilting, card weaving and a little spinning. I have made a list below of items mentioned. I hope you are well and in good spirits!
Fondly, Sarah

You’re so kind, Merci! and yes you need some Foula Wool!
On this Canadian Thanksgiving, I am thankful to you for your video casts. You always make me strive higher on my knitting journey.
Thank Ann, such kind thoughts. I hope you’ve been enjoying the fall
Ann, that’s so kind! I appreciate you sharing here. Happy Knitting Adventures!~
Hi, Thanks for the podcast. It is something I always look forward to. I always love what you share. A real joy.
You’re welcome! Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
Your knitting and your miasma are gorgeous!!!! Thanks to you im going to read some Andrew McFarlane…… and the eye shadow looked awesome!!!! Thanks so much for your podcast.
Haha! Thank you for the comments on my eyeshadow! π
Ah, WORDS! I just bought a Scots Dictionary of Nature by Amanda Thompson.
I is divided into Land.Wood, weather, Birds, Water and walking. Amazing stuff.
re the Tog I have dyed it, spun it fine and used it for embroidery.
Great podcast, thank you. I have just finished the Selbu mitten course with Patricia Ann and it was Great…Learned SO much!
I’ll be checking that book out ASAP! I’m inspired by your work with the Tog. I hope I can stick it out and finish. Thank you for sharing your thoughts here.
Miss Sarah, I would love to hear about your Icelandics, see them and hear about your setup and shepherding practice. Thank you so much for sharing your work, with your ongoing discussion of connection to land, you have given words to things that have dwelt unexpressed in my heart, my hands and my life experience. Thank you.
Thank you for commenting here! I will be chatting more about my gals as I begin to prepare their fiber for the mill. Take Care!
I totally agree with your description of wear with the Foula Wool. I made the 2019 Shetland Wool Week hat with it, and my husband has worn it every day in winter with rain and snow walking the dog, and I love how it has worn and how warm it is (yes, I borrow it) and how well it works when the rain comes pouring down with wind…so warm. I loved this wool while knitting with it. The ancient history of this sheep is fascinating.
Dear Barbara, Foula is magical! Thanks for sharing your experience. Can’t wait to have some more in my stash!
