Book Club
  • Book Club Break - Pam & Greg both have a lot of unusual demands on their time right now. We will be back with the book club in episode 137. Next episode we will continue Section 2 of The Knitter's Book of Yarn: The Ultimate Guide to Choosing, Using, and Enjoying Yarn by Clara Parkes. We will begin a discussion of color. We try to host book club so you don't need the book to enjoy the discussions but this book is such a wealth of knowledge we highly recommend it!
Current/Upcoming Unraveling Events
