Happy New Year everyone! I am back in the yarn room and this episode is jam packed with knitting, yarn, and info. First up: a new KAL that will bring together novice and expert sweater knitters. We’ll have a Rav thread and some Zoom meetings–plus, prizes! Then, I have some finished socks knit up from a sock blank; I’ll pop up a tutorial this week to accompany the socks and this episode. I also have some advice about finding yarn and fiber that’s local to you . . . and Spencer stops by to introduce my latest pattern in need of test knitters. All of the links for the show are below. I hope you’ll hang a while 🙂 ~Melissa

-2 F! I look like a sleeping bag with feet when I go for my daily walk. And, yes…I did have a snow day and I did catch up on your podcasts.
