Since some of you have asked about my sock knitting, I thought I would share this. I shared this photo on Twitter and Instagram a few days ago and I encourage you to share your sock drawers too! I go through phases of sock knitting. Right now my sock drawer is full. That means I am knitting other things. But as these pairs get worn I will get to replace them! So... what does your sock drawer look like?

Episode 32 - Botanical Knits
In addition to our usual segments, we share our impressions of Botanical Knits by Alana Dakos. If you haven't checked out these lovely designs, please click on the link above and do so! We also announce the winners of the Self-indulgent KAL. Congrats to our winners and to everyone who made themselves something lovely to start the new year. Wear it with pride! I am still getting over a cold and coughing a bit. If my voice sounds like a frog, that is why!

***After recording I noticed that the Entangled Vines Cardigan does indeed have slight shaping for the hips, adding a few stitches in one increase row.

Episode 31 - Post STITCHES Chat
Happy March everyone! Gayle and I are happily reunited post-STITCHESWest bliss. We have a few stories to tell and some knitting to catch up on. We try to share a few STITCHES anecdotes and purchases along the way, getting a little tongue-tied when we talk about the kindness and friendship of knitters. It was the highlight of the expo for both of us.
Links for what we are knitting and wearing can be found below. Hopefully I have included everything. Please don't hesitate to leave a comment or join the discussion in our group at Ravelry. You are all welcome to join us!
