Knitting News and Notes:
Participated in a Virtual Knit Night (VKN) with some of my favorite podcasters:
Danie from the The Prairie Girls Knit and Spin
(Don't worry, Susie was invited but she couldn't make it!)
Boston Jen from the Down Cellar Studio Podcast
Sarah and Kristi from In a sKnit Video Podcast
Emily from Knitting Butterflies
So much fun! Google Hangouts are super easy to do, give it a try and have a VKN of your own!
