Episode 124 - Knitting the colors of fall

In this episode, we wrap up the Yarniacs Colors of Fall 2016 Knit-a-long. Thanks to everyone who participated in the fun. Even if you didn't knit something from the fall palette, take a look at all the photos of the styled fall looks that everyone shared in the KAL Ravelry thread. It's really fun to see!

In this episode, everything has a bit of a fall twist--as we focus on colors and trends for the new season. Remember, you don't have to be a fashionista or a slave to fashion to work in a new color or a new accessory, or just figure out how to wear things in a different way. The goal? To feel good--good about yourself and about the lovely hand knits we've created! Wear those creations with pride!
