Episode 35: Article Pract

Special Thanks to my husband, McKay, for surprise co-hosting with me.
Knitting
Article Pract is closing and is having sales to get rid of stock and even their fixtures

Just went to Article Pract on Telegraph in Oakland! The Twisted Sisters yarn is for myself; the Alchemy and Sprout is for the #Swapetition. Article Pract is closing at the end of the year so everything is on sale!

Episode 34: SoMa

Knitting

Finished my Hitchhiker! Used Miss Bab's Yowza in Perfectly Wreckless. I did only 41 "teeth" on the Hitchhiker and ended with 2 feet of yarn leftover!
Pattern here.

I bought this yarn at Stitches West 4 years ago and didn't read the directions. Hope it didn't spoil! #keeprefrigerated #knitting
