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 has also knit on Cloud Cover by Heidi Kirrmaier out of handspun on size 4 needles. The handspun was a mashup spin from Hello Yarn in Rambouillet. She also cast on another pair of socks out of Nomadic Yarns sport weight. Laura also started a Coin Flip Hat by Shanalines Designs out of some Into the Whirled BFL in the Spring Sprang Sprung colorway. It is being knit on size 1 needles.
