Hello! Yes, yes…there is still a lot of fabric play going on around here. But, ho! ho! I have a finished sweater. In this episode I dabble in resist dyeing and indigo, finish up a quilt, tackle my scrap bin and chat about my finished items and new cast-ons. As always, thank you for tuning in and a special heartfelt thank you for those that contribute financially through Patreon. A quick note, I will be uploading to YouTube the evening of (7/30) as internet communications is slow. Thank you for your flexibility.

Hello friends! Don’t mind the sound…I was at my parents without my normal equipment. Ai! There is always something to pack. I’ve been south caring for my mum after surgery so this episode might reflect a bit more of my fringe self. Things are going a bit crazy at the studio with all the possibilities. Will I try to rein it in? I don’t think so. More to come, and if you’re a Patron..hold on to your hat! I will be uploading some bonus content which I hope includes my Mum! As always, a heartfelt thank you to those that invest financially. I hope you enjoy!

It was fun to gather a little maple sugaring footage for you all. This process starts with tapping so you’ll have to wait for the boiling stage! This is a process that Rob thoroughly enjoys every year. In this edition, I highlight some more geli printing techniques I learned from Robyn McClendon on her YouTube channel. I also talk about one of my favorite yarns, Foula. As always, many thanks for taking some time be here and for those that contribute financially, I am deeply grateful. I have added a bonus episode over on Patreon highlighting six of my favorite yarns…which I end up labeling my top 5 but, ahem, it’s six 😉
