Episode 25: New mitts! And old favourites

It was a rainy day when I did this recording, so I’ve pulled some old favorites out of my knitting wardrobe to bundle up in. Showing off the finished pair of mitts and *still* working on the last sleeve of my Lapwing (which I consistently called Levenwik throughout the video 😅).

(Still, yes still...) On the needles

I’ll be knitting the Nighthawk Slipover by Wilma Malcomson, published in Shetland Wool Adventures Journal vol. 2 (https://www.shetlandwooladventures.com/journal/)  

I have made a collection on Ravelry with some of my favourite patterns that are available on the platform. I will keep adding to this list as I find new inspiring designs.
