The pattern for the blanket my awesome friends made for me is the Merrywood Throw by Laura Aylor.

The yarn my socks are made out of is HDYarns in the Circles colorway.

The winner of April Friend to FO is sabrab (post 25), and she wins a skein of Verdant Gryphon Eidos donated by the lovely dptemple!

episode 32: just a quickie update!

just a quick episode to say hi... and give you a super fast update about what's going on. follow me on instagram... i'm hellolovely. you can find the awesome yarn i was knitting with, hdyarns in the "circles" colorway, at https://www.etsy.com/shop/HDYarns. ps: i just noticed that my show has ads. i didn't start that. apparently blip has forced all shows to have "pre-roll" ads, whatever that is. i'm sorry for any inconvenience. :(

episode 31: remember me?

 

 

after a super long, unintended hiatus, i fill you in on the latest goings on!

no promises about a podcasting schedule, due to the "real life" things i have going on right now, but i promise to put out a show whenever i can, and will re-evaluate once things settle down.

Friend to FO March: winner is post #2 - samplerstitcher. PM me with your full name, address, and which version of cozies you'd like (red w/ flowers or purple w/ hearts), and I will mail them out plus a little bonus for being so patient, as soon as I unpack them. LOL! :)

FOs:
Pomme de Pin!

PdP KAL winners - Josie (the only FO!) and cpurl17 (the only person other than Josie to post a WIP!)

Next KAL: SOCKS! the group says APril/May, but I"m just going to extend it for the whole 2nd quarter, so April, May, and June!  Post your FO's in the KAL thread, and I will enter them into my own spreadsheet for prize drawings.  Self-striping yarns = a bonus entry, plus you can still post your FOs in the monthly Friend to FO thread! Socks must be started April 1 and finished/posted in the thread by June 30 (or whenever I wake up to close the thread July 1). Prizes will be drawn on the next podcast after.

Review:
Knit to Flatter by Amy Herzog!

CHeck out her Craftsy Class by the same name. If you visit her blog, I believe she is still offering a discount on the class, but it's well worth the full price based on the few lessons I've watched so far.
