Thank you for joining me this week! A special shout-out to our Patreon subscribers who keep the show on the air each week – this wouldn’t exist without you all! I have some giveaway announcements at the beginning of the show – thank you so much to Aleksi of SuccaPlokki and Katrina of Crafty Jaks Boutique. I talk briefly about the ongoing SPAKAL and SALs in the group and remember to join us for the Blast Off Along! I take a few moments to share with you some ways to procure fibre and fleece. I was asked quite a few times in the past week or so, so I wanted to pause and address this frequent question! I hope it is helpful. Also, I talk about a singles yarn I just finished, a new cast on and some weaving that I’ve started.
