What we’re working on:

Rachel is working on Lambton Panes by Cowtown Knits to the exclusion of all the other four bazillion things she's cast on recently. She's also been spinning up a storm for the Tour de Fleece and checking out everyone else's awesome spinning on the Team Porpoise Fur thread.

Allison is working on Wavedeck by Kate Atherley in SweetGeorgia Superwash Worsted in Riptide. And is almost done with the Toddler Hoodie.

Halfway:

As it's July, we thought it would be worthwhile to take a step back and look at how the year has gone so far - the successful and not-so-successful undertakings that we've been up to. We talk about some revised goals, emerging trends in our own crafting lives and #3thingsforyarnlove.
