Episode 582

Leslie cast on a Shawl That Jazz out of Miss Babs Yowza in the SSK 2022 colorway.  She swatched for the Blume top (ravelry link) out of Camellia Flax Fingering in the Lichen colorway.  She’s also about to cast on for Sprinkled with Kindness (ravelry link) out of the ‘shadows’ colorway of Spotted Circus’ Superwash Sock and Alpaca/Suri silk blend.

Laura is knitting on Love Note by Tin Can Knits.  She is knitting it on size 8 needles and using Suri Alpaca Silk lace by Stranded in the Blue rinse colorway held with Neighborhood Fiber Co Studio Sock in the Fair Fight colorway. She has also started a test knit for Scrappy Stashbuster Shawl by Tif Neilan.  She is using size 7 needles and the following yarns: Plucky Knitter feet in Soda Fountain, Teeny Button Studio Twist Fingering in From Regions Beyond, Plucky Knitter Feet in Tiny Bubbles, Sheep Graffiti in Tranquility, Countess Ablaze in Adrenaline Rush, and Undercover Otter in There is Only Zuul. She is also knitting on some toe up socks using Nomadic in Gumdrop Buttons.

Leslie has spun some First Edition Fibres from Amanda in Australia.  She got ~220yds of a DK/Worsted 2 ply.

Leslie is re-reading The Fisherman, because she needed something for SSK that didn’t require concentration.  She’s listening to Theft of Swords (Riyira Revelations) by Michael J. Sullivan, read by Tim Gerard Reynolds.

Laura is still rereading the Alpha and Omega series by Patricia Briggs (m/f werewolf adult urban fantasy)

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.
