CH 243: Frost at Midnight Cowl & KAL winners!

Today on the podcast I've got that end-of-the-year feeling. We still have another month to go, but I'm already in the mood to review this year's makes and projects and to start scheming about next year's ideas and plans. What happened with my Make Nine project? How about my word of the year? Are you feeling the same? I also have the last of the new Knitvent patterns to share with you and a crowd of KAL winners from The Shawl Society Season III and The Handmade Sock Society to announce! 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.
