Ask Me Anything:

♥ I answered a question from Jennifer about my fabric stash where I showed many things, but I have an exceptionally large amount of Lizzy House fabrics it turns out.

♥ Christina wanted to know about what model sewing machine I have as well as my story of how I learned to spin. It’s pretty long and rambly, but you can have a peek in my sewing area during it.

Episode 119: Redundancy

Today is another lengthy show, kittens! I have a little knitting work to show you plus a couple of lovelies that came into my home, but most of today’s episode is answers to some AMA questions and a little shop chat. Thank you for spending some of your time with me today, and I hope to see you over in the Knot A Podcast Ravelry Group for Sock it to Summer 2015! Show notes can be found on the blog at SewKnitpicky.net

Show Notes: Episode 118

There aren’t really notes today, kittens, due to low content. I finished my handspun socks and started a little more spinning. I talked a bit about my plans for Tour de Fleece and some other plans for Lamby Toes. Today is a heavy chat episode. If you want to play along in Sock it to Summer, please be sure to join the Knot A Podcast Ravelry group. If you’re interested in mini-skein swaps, check out this FaceBook group.
