Episode 125 - Default knitting

Happy Fall everyone! Have you had a chance to wear something cozy and/or woolly yet? I am excited that I can throw a shawl around my neck or shoulders almost every day now. It may be a few weeks before true sweater weather hits but in the meantime, I am enjoying those shawls!

This week we are back to our regular format and segments. We hope you will enjoy!
