Twisted Strands Ep. 7, The Birthday Episode

More bad singing, some hats, an idea on how to attach a pompom to the top of a hat, some beer, and a few thank yous!

This week’s yarn is:
Madil Luxor, white with silver strand

Stuff I’m working on:

Mystery sock Knitalong called Family Jewels from The Knitter’s Brewing Company. Color is Mulberry Sweet. You can join me in this knitalong in the Ravelry group The Knitter’s Brewing Co., and it is a free pattern.
Continuing work on the White Caps Fingerless Gloves with Cherry Tree hill Mixed berry Colorway.
I finished the Cabled Treat hat from Simply Knitting’s December issue.

I’m reading Buttercream Bump Off, a Cupcake Bakery Mystery book by Jenn McKinlay.

Thanks for watching!

  1. Happy Birthday! Great idea for a 40th birthday hat. I wonder what would be good for 50th and 60th birthdays. I've enjoyed watching your podcast. I'll have to remember your button tip if I ever have to sew a pompom on a hat.
