112 Back from a Break

Ep 112 recorded  3/1/23 Back from a Break

Hey all, long time no talk.  I’d planned to take a few weeks off and it just… stretched.  The truth is I’d lost my mojo, not in podcasting but in knitting, and it’s really hard to run a knitting podcast when you’re hardly knitting.

Knitting Fail

Summer Dreams had a big setback while I was in Florida.  

Spinning
