April is flying by. I hadn't declared a theme for the month, but one has emerged all by itself: this is a month of Travel! I've been so spoiled recently with all of these amazing journeys, so I've tried to bring back a little of the magic to share with all of you.This week's episode is another recap of a wonderful knitting trip, this time to Georgia to spend time with old and new friends at Paula's amazing Knitting Pipeline Retreat. Show Sponsor: Meadow Yarn is an inviting online retailer selling yarn, needles and notions. It's a small, family business based in rural Suffolk in the UK. Meadow Yarn was born out of a passion for beautiful yarn and knitting accessories and aims to bring you a range of great products. Yarns stocked include madelinetosh, Eden Cottage Yarn, the Fibre Co and many more. Show Links: Last year's Georgia Pipeline Retreat episode. The gorgeous brown and green Curious Collective shawl with the better bobbles, knit by Irene, who is bluebirdnest on Ravelry. The amazing yarn shop we visited: East Sleep Knit The wonderful vendors at the retreat market, in case you'd like to snag some goodies for yourself: Prairie Bag Works MariaElenaBliss Bags Jan B Smiley Bags Seven Sisters Arts Snarky Llama Creations RainStorm Studios Gilding Lillies Our Hill Top Shawl KAL is going wonderfully! Thank you to everyone who has bought the pattern: it's incredible to see all the beautiful shawls popping up in the FO thread! The KAL will run until May 5th, so there's still time if you want to join us! Events: Tonight, the 15th of April I will be attending the launch party for my friend Baraba's book Stitching Up Paris We'll be having a knit night from 6pm to 9pm at L’ Oisivethé, 8 bis rue de la Butte aux Cailles, 75013, Paris, France.
