Episode 6: Attack of the Acrylic Monster

Video

Shownotes

Welcome: Sending prayers to those effected by the attacks this week in France

What's On the Needles: Mitered Square #2 is almost done

Mom's bag #1 (yes I said #1) in the show I explain why she multiple bags

UFO Bound: Miriam's (my sister) bag is offically on hiatus until I finish at least 1 of my mother's bags.

The Spin Zone: Not much spinning done this week, still plugging thorough the fiber. Hoping to have the first ½ done by next week.

What I want to work on: It's growing, in a way in addition to what I've talked about it now consists of the following-

Oats

Mittens

Scarf for Miriam (going to start this after the episode is uploaded)

Sockhead Hat by Kelly McClaure

Dot Shawl by Casapinka

Possibly something for my cousins (not sure what I would make though)

A few of these projects accomplish one of my 2015 goals (as does the bags that I'm making my mom, but I'm counting that as 1 project), so that might be the next think I cast on after I finish everything for my mom.

Possible KAL down the road. Won't likely will happen till May

Sorry for the slight coughing and small barking (if you can hear it) from my dog. I didn't stop recording in hope it was going to be short, and thankfully it was. Mollie was a good girl about that!
