97 Time time time

Ep 97 recorded 11/5/21

Hello, life is a bit crazy.  With the kids in school full times this year I’ve been taking classes and time is a little short but I needed to record an episode for you folks.

Housekeeping

I will be starting up a few testknits soon, all for sleeveless tops.  If you’re interested please join my test knitter mailing list at http://www.windsweptknits.com/testknitters/ - if on this list you will only get emails related to test knitting, nothing else.  I’ll be having 3 or 4 test knits starting up in the next few months with yarn ranging from fingering to DK and I’d love to have you join.
