In this episode we give you an update on what we’re knitting and talk a little bit about yarn shopping in Toronto, discuss some of the things we’d liked to have seen at Sock Summit if we’d been able to go (sob) as well as some fannish anxieties and awesome costumes, as well as giving you still more geeky patterns to drool over and add to your Ravelry queue. You’re welcome.
Check out our new Ravelry group! Tell us about what you’re geeking out about, what you’re working on, and share any geeky stuff you find!
