Ep568 – Far Side of Forty

Episode 568

Leslie is knitting a Windswept out of Sedum lace. She also dug out Camino Bubbles out of LMFA King Max colorway

Laura  is working on the Out of Winter shawl by TamyGore.  She is using size 6 needles and knitting it out of some Koomasee BFL that she spun. She finally started spinning the contrast color!  She also started a pair of Knit Spin Farm Targhee Sport Weight socks in Inspire your heart with art colorway on size 1 needles.  Laura also cast on a test knit for Tif Neilan using handspun and some Stranded Dyeworks on size 8 and 9 needles.  She also cast on the Recalibrate top using handspun and size 6 needles.  The handspun is a solid CVM fleece and the contrast is 8oz combo spin from wee chickadee.

Leslie finished a pair of KnitSpinFarm sport weight socks out of the Wooly Mammoth colorway.

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.
