Today on the show I talk about how my new WIP obsession–the Confetti Pullover–is going, update you on some KALs and announcements, and ask you a question about what you’d like to hear from Curious Handmade this summer.
Show Sponsors:
Meadow Yarn is an inviting online retailer selling yarn, needles and notions. It’s a small, family business based in rural Suffolk in the UK. Meadow Yarn was born out of a passion for beautiful yarn and knitting accessories and aims to bring you a range of great products. Yarns stocked include Northbound Knitting, Eden Cottage Yarn, the Fibre Co and many more.
On this week’s episode of the podcast I mentioned, that I wanted your opinion – last year I put together a Summer Series of some pre-recorded episodes before I headed to Australia, and I want to do it again. But this this time, I’d love to do something a bit collaborative, almost like a little virtual retreat for us over the months of July and August.
I’m cooking up a few ideas but I want to hear your thoughts and requests. What would you like to hear from Curious Handmade over the next couple of months? Is there something that would inspire or motivate you to go deeper into your own creativity for a few weeks? What kind of participation would you enjoy?
Whatever we decide to do, it doesn’t have to be summer-exclusive: I know there’s plenty of cooler weather in the southern hemisphere right about now and I don’t want to leave you guys out, either! You can get in touch with me by leaving a comment on this post here or messaging me on Ravelry–I’d really love to hear from you!
