Ep 81: Compost Bins and Combo Spins

Ep 81: Compost Bins and Combo Spins

Monogamous sweater knitting, a little yarn dyeing for the Two Ewes Shop, and some weaving homework for Marsha are all featured this episode. Click here for complete show notes with photos.

Marsha's projects

Marsha is now obsessed with knitting with her combo spin yarn. She is knitting Beeline by Heidi Kirrmaier. She has renamed the project Compost Spin after listener GloriaMcC from Michigan reported that she had been hearing this project as the Compost Bin project. Combo Spin... Compost Bin. Guess it's a good thing we have show notes so people can see what we're saying!

Kelly's projects

Kelly is back to working on the Handspun Cowichan sweater. She has the body done and is ready to work the sleeves and collar. Like Marsha, she has been focused only on this knitting project over the last two weeks.

Kelly has also been doing some dyeing. Right after Thanksgiving new colors were added to the shop and new items for spinners are coming in the upcoming week. The shopsmall2017 discount code is good for free shipping until December 10. One of our listeners has created a beautiful shawl from our textured Raucous Rambouillet yarn. It's a great example of pattern and yarn pairing. She used the the Among the Shadows pattern that Marsha has used twice now and created the Blueberry & Cream Shawl.

Weaving

Kelly and Marsha talk a little about how Marsha can prepare for her Winter Weave Along project. Marsha will be selecting yarns that she wants to use to make a sampler on her 4-harness table loom.

Announcements
