CH 207: Marlise by Anna Maltz and Knitvent KAL winners

  On today's episode, I have a gorgeous book to review, which features a whole new knitting technique! I also announce our winners from the 2017 Knitvent KAL and chat a little about some Curious Handmade developments, including what it's been like to plan the year so intently. Show Sponsors: Alongside an eclectic yarn range, which includes Hazel Knits, Icelandic Lopi & CoopKnits, we stock a carefully chosen selection of needles and notions. We’ve also recently launched ‘hand dyed by meadowyarn’, our very own in-house, hand-dyed yarn range. Working in our tiny dye studio, nestled in the Suffolk countryside, we are able to indulge our love of colour, producing complex tonal, kettle-dyed shades across a range of weights and bases. With regular updates our collections evolve and grow, inspired by the landscape and people around us. AYS is a wool boutique specializing in hand dyed yarns and luxury fibres from around the world. You’ll always find a well curated collection of yarns and colors on the shelves and a friendly knowledgeable staff on hand. Some of our favorite brands include Hedgehog Fibres, SweetGeorgia Yarn, Julie Asselin, Shibui Knits and The Fibre Co. You can find A Yarn Story on Walcot Street in Bath or online at www.ayarnstory.co.uk Announcements Membership to The Handmade Sock Society has reopened! I am so delighted to welcome sock knitters new and old to our mysterious sock fellowship. You can now join at the Early Bird Price for a short time. There's already lively conversation going on in our Ravelry thread, and from past experience I know that this is going to be an incredible group of passionate, friendly, community-minded knitters. I can't wait to get started!
