The latest edition of the Podcast is about to be loaded. In this weeks episode, I show you my Yarndale mug, review a copy of the Bletchley Collection from Eden Cottage Yarns, and talk a little about Yarndale. This is a short episode, but I hope to have more project progress on my knitting projects next week.
