It’s all about the knitting and the cooking in this episode. I’m working toward a Rhinebeck sweater and a wool skirt to match. Plus project planning and lots of cooking — with corn and other vegetables. And a poem in defense of an overgrown garden. This episode is full-on summer!

My finished Eun is the coziest sweater in my closet, and knit just in time for a few days’ wear before the temperatures rise! In this episode, I also share the details of a completed spinning project, spindle spinning for 100 days, and returning to the knitting of my colorwork sweater in Tidal Yarns. Plus, a poem by Wendell Berry.
This episode is anchored by my intentions set over the first two weeks of February: honor creative impulses and open your heart. I share a number of new works, talk about my continued spinning progress, and read a poem by Andrea Gibson, poet laureate of Colorado.
