Episode 15: And That Could be Knitting

Hey everyone!Summer is winding down and we are handling it all with grace and charm (here’s a link to Elyssa’s dead plant and here’s the song that made her cry in the car).Elyssa is wearing her Mix Tape Tee! It’s so pretty. She made a tiny mistake on it while she was at the Prospect Park Knitting Club meetup but maybe she’ll just let it ride.Have you seen The Garment yet? Absolute decadence.Elyssa got to see a gorgeous Slipstravaganza in real life. She also got to see a picture of a cat sweater and you can look at it too in this Substack essay!We chat about the NY Sheep & Wool Festival (aka Rhinebeck!). Maybe we’ll go together someday…Lydia is still working on the Scrappy Checkers. It’s going great but it's taking a while.Elyssa swatched again (can you believe it?). This time she used Noro Kureyon and Drops Air.Elyssa also finished and blocked her Pressed Flowers Kerchief. It’s beautiful and she’s giving it to her beloved babysitter.PSA: If you're thinking about knitting Christmas gifts you should start making them now. Elyssa already made an Oslo Hat to gift to a lucky someone. Her go-to gift knit is the Chunky Twist Headband.Elyssa got more of the very special Manos del Uruguay "Ushuaia". She may use it to make an Ozetta pullover. But which one?Elyssa also signed up to receive some very special Snail Mail from Anna Husemann.Thanks so much for listening!
