Notes

  • Thank-Yous
    • Kino (aka Mary) gave Greg a copy of Caius, her newest sweater pattern, which she thought he might enjoy knitting for Blueberry. Greg is hoping to cast on soon. We’re going to give a copy of the pattern!
  • Ravelry Goings-On
    • #TryPod — Encourage your friends to try a new-to-them podcast. We encourage you to recommend our podcast! Use the #TryPodABitLate hashtag when you talk about this on social media.
  • Giveaways
  • Projects
    • Joey continues to talk about not working on a scarf for his son.
    • Greg is working on his Halcyarn Socks (project page). First sock is complete, and he’s about 50% done with the foot of the second sock. He’s hoping to move this to FO by the next time we record. He loves the contrasting cuffs, toes, and heels in black, but he hates weaving in the ends with black yarn. Yarn is custom-dyed by Dr. Kelly from the Ewe University podcast.
    • Greg knitted a Knitted Travel Mug Kit, pattern by Knits4Comfort. He highly recommends the kit, which is available in Jenn’s etsy shop.
    • Greg knitted an In Threes (project page) by Kelly Herdrich for an upcoming baby shower. He loves this pattern, it makes a great baby gift. He knitted it in Twist Fiber Studio Haywood Worsted in the “Girl At The Rock Show” colorway.
