Here are the show notes for Episode 32:  


On the Needles: 
Knitting Projects - 
FO's: none

WIPs:
Celestarium by Audrey Nickels.  Using a local yarn from Spruce Dragon called Twinkle in the Midnight Blue II color way.  Using different colored beads for the different magnitudes of the stars.  Started before the eclipse and had fun knitting through it.  

Prayer Shawl #2 for the prayer shawl ministry at my church.  Moved onto donegal tweed from Ireland.


Ley Lines shawl by Joji Locatelli for jojifallkal17.  Not getting gauge and I'm pretty small.  Adding repeats to sections but still not wide enough.  Not really liking the Mini Mochi, it's basically pin drafted roving with a little bit of twist.


Lemongrass pullover by Joji Locatelli for jojifallkal17. Added extra length and now I think it's too long.  Do I pull back?

Stalking:  All the beautiful projects people are doing for the DCS Pigskin Party and Jojifallkal17.


Acquisitions - Oh Loops yarn.


Spinning Projects - same


Under the Needle:
Sewing Projects - nothing new

In the Garden: n/a


In the Beeyard - 

Off Topic:  Just enjoying my KALs and the start of football season.  Drafted two fantasy football teams and I'm planning on kicking some butt.  Mr. HPL totally beat me head to head this week though.
Watching:  Spicy Homemaker with Melissa. 

Thanks for watching!
