Here are the show notes for Episode 39:  
On the Needles: 
Knitting Projects - 
FO's:  
Silver cardigan bKristiina Temin for one of my nieces.  Using a very bright pink and orange yarn by Lorna's Laces Sportmate and Madelinetosh 80/10/10 sport weight in Coquette to finish up the garter edging.

Brian's socks are done and he's worn them.  Ready for a wash again.

Vanilla Bean Wonder Woman socks.  Finished in the car.

Lush Brioche cowl, my Ravellenics project.  Don't know why I was scared of brioche, because it's awesome and easy enough.  I won a badge!

Vanilla Wonder Woman socks for A.  Used all of the leftover sock yarn, finished cuff in red MadTosh.

WIPs:
Vanilla Supergirl socks for E.  Doing the toes and cuffs in Hedgehog Fibers Electric blue, body in Madtosh red. 

Runa by Gudrun Johnston.  Swatching hell.


Prayer shawl for church.

Stalking:  aimlessly


Acquisitions -  Artistic yarns in Impressionist, Madtosh twist light in red, Hedgehog sock mini in Electric blue.


Spinning Projects - 

Under the Needle:
Sewing Projects - Prairie Woman Sewing Circle, missed the last 2 months of classes.

In the Garden: Look out into the yard and see all the spring cleanup I need to do, but it's still snowing on us so I have no motivation.


In the Beeyard - I've ordered 2 packages of bees with Carniolan queens from John Hartley of Black Forest Honey.  It's a local pickup and he works with PPBA.

Off Topic:  Between traveling out of town for funerals and spring break visits, it's been a while.  Yes, I'm still coughing.  Spring IS on its way.  
Trying to plan a motorcycle trip and find a way to combine it with a fiber festival, but I'm having trouble.  Black Sheep Gathering in Albany, OR is a possibility, but it's right at end of June, beginning of July.  It can be hot riding then.
Opening day of baseball, Rockies lost.  BatterUpKAL starts with InASknit.
Watching/Listening:  Path to the Draft.  Good luck Josh Allen!

Thanks for watching!
