Introduction
In this episode, I’ve got some knitting, some spinning, and a tiny bit of sewing. I have a tale for you about my efforts to get organized, and I will tell you all about my most cherished spinning wheel.

Spinning my Wheels
Knitting
- I finished that pair of Self-striping socks. I am using Turtlepurl Striped Softshell Turtle Toes in the color way What’d You Call Me. I used Judy’s Magic Cast On for the first time, Jeny’s Super Stretchy Bind off and an Afterthought Heal as outlined by Laura Linemann.
