Thanksgiving finds us recording live and unedited in Salinas. It was a low key holiday with lots of food and family, but no hysteria. It’s Kelly’s favorite holiday. We cooked, we laughed, we knit, we spun, and we were able to get a podcast recorded. We recorded in the dining room so there is some echo-y sound, along with dog and family background noise.

OWLS Circular Sock Machine Crank-in
The event will take place July 23rd-July 25th at St. Francis Retreat Center where we do our other retreat. We welcome experienced crankers, beginners, and those who are just considering getting started with circular sock machines.
On the forum there is a FAQ and Registration Form for those who are interested. We would like to make this a yearly event.
Marsha’s Projects
Socks: Using Schoppel-Wool Das Paar colorway Pigment Nebel plus Cloudborn in teal. Finished first sock
Oaxaca Journey Bag: by Araceli Gonzalez. Using Prado de Lana.
Late Bloomer by Heidi Kirrmaier using Hudson Valley Yarn
Sheridan Flats Spinning: Purchased 24 oz of 80/15/6 wool/mohair/silk roving in the colorway Kaleidoscope. The owner said to spin at a worsted weight for best results. Mill is Olympic Yarn & Fiber located in Cosmopolis, WA. Plied three singles but somehow I over plied it.
Rag Rugs: Wound warp for four rag rugs and started warping loom. Warp is 4” and 6” stripes in royal blue, green, and orange. Finished first rug. Decided to plan for the next three rugs so sketched some designs.
Weaving Studio: It’s a work in progress.
Garden Redesign: I’ve created a project page.
Kelly’s Projects
Chenille Rugs Part 2 Started the weaving of the rug, but I’m only about 5 inches in. I got distracted by school starting, the need for a take away knitting project, and some hats.
Continued spinning the Romney x Rambouillet that came from the NoCKRs destash. It’s a 3-ply, ply-as-I-go project. I’m doing the last topping up of bobbins before I finish the plying.
Need to frog and restart the Seatoller Socks by Louise Tillbrook. It’s a twisted rib and cabled sock pattern so it is coming out a little tighter than my usual sock gauge.
Norwegian red resistance hat from WWII. I’m using Royal Bee DK weight. Made one according to the pattern and it’s a bit small. Made the second with additional stitches cast on and longer ribbing section. That worked well. Have a third on the needles that is between the two sizes I’ve already made.
Skein and Needle yarn shop in Minneapolis, pattern by yarncultMN Paul and shout out to Kathy (knitloon) who is a listener!
