http://www.woolwork.net/ep129 Here I am feeling springlike, feeling great after my first covid jab! I've even finished some projects and started some sewing. There is also a giveaway this episode from Popcorn & Crocodiles, so come on in!
The first podcast of 2021 and a shorter one for good reasons. Settle in and have a break from the day with me. I am taking about recent WIPs and some patterns that caught my eye recently. Full shownotes at http://www.woolwork.net/ep128

Shownotes: www.woolwork.net/ep127 - I'm talking about all the 'I haven't done that for a while' things which caused me some anxiety & soul-searching. I tell you about awesome new book Perspectives. There is finally Zwarbtles wool exploration too.
Blimey, this is something resembling a podcast! The urge came upon me to record today, poor recording set up et al! Today I'm talking about drafts and notes and your suggestions of wool for the bedroom. Full notes are at https://wp.me/s303nu-ep126
Procrastinating while we move house - I have some thoughts on a lot of the things that have been happening lately in our knitting communities and beyond. More at the WoolWork Website https://wp.me/p303nu-4Bh
