It’s been an interesting week. Started off as usual, but on Tuesday I headed off down south as one of my siblings has been diagnosed with a renal tumour. We went to the hospital and met with the consultant. Treatment is planned.
I decided I needed to make the most of my trip, so I visited my online friends Dave and Elly, who have the YouTube podcast “FO and Dye”. I had the most relaxing time with them, and was invited to be on their podcast. The weather, as you can see in the photograph, was glorious. Hard to believe it is only March.
If you want to see the podcast, it’s on the FO &Dye channel. I was also lucky enough to get pressies. I will show them on the Knatters Knits podcast later today. They included some fibre and yarn and an orifice hook made by Elly.
It was a weird sensation podcasting with other people in the room. I’m so used to talking to my laptop in the closed confines of my craft room, but having others present was unusual. It was a good experience though, and one I’d love to do again some time.
This week on the Knatters Knits podcast I will show off my goodies from Dave and Elly, show progress on my on the fly project, the cowl using countess ablaze yarn and my acquisition that was waiting for me when I got home, the Fibernymph Dyeworks inversible set on her bounce base, in the pink and orange colourway. It’s a fingering weight yarn made up of 80% super wash merino and 20% nylon. I’d forgotten, I’d also ordered a sock blank. It’s in the cardinal-magenta-forest colour combination.
