Leslie is knitting Parallel Module socks in Must Stash Kama Sutra.  She is also knitting Cypress out of Queensland Kathmandu Aran. She’s also knitting some unpatterned Turtlepurl Yarn mitts.

 

Laura is knitting a Caesious Curl by Hunter Hammersen.  She is knitting it out of 440 yards of a 2 ply handspun out of Unwind Yarn Company fiber (combo spin).  Next on the needles will be the Jord pattern by Chelsea Berkompas. I swatched it on size 11 needles out of Brooklyn Tweed Quarry and a pair of socks out of String Theory dyeworks for Marigold Jen.

Leslie has been spinning a patchwork kit on the Majacraft Rose at Laura’s house.

About Leslie

Leslie is obsessed with knitting, and when possible, perfection in her knitting. All stripey socks must match exactly and all lace must be blocked severely. She has major love for all of her viewers/readers and hopes to keep blogging and podcasting for years to come.
