Hello Hello Fiber Folks,
In today’s episode, I’m sharing the projects that have captured my attention throughout February.
I’ve complete the famous Sophie Hood and a (somewhat) long-term crochet blanket project. I’ve got a couple other winter accessories I’m trying to wrap up as well, including an Oslo Hat and plans for a pair of COLORFUL mittens. Additionally, despite my best intentions of finishing my Madeleine Sweater in time for spring break, a self-drafted cabled sweater WIP has taken over my knitting time. I’d totally encourage you to check out my project vlogs for this sweater if you’re interested in more insight into my process.
All the details on these projects and more are in today’s episode!
On another note…It seems that my audio quality has been getting affected throughout upload on the last handful of videos. Sometimes it can feel like a bit of a toss up on what happens between editing and upload, but I am looking into microphone options to try out in future videos. Thanks to the folks who have left feedback!
I hope you enjoy this episode and I’m wishing you happy knitting!!
Emily
