On this Shopcast episode, join Corinne and Maggie as they show their Hansel Haps in progress. They also show the Love Note yarn sets we've put together, the new colors of Ullcentrum we've just got in, and they give us a sneak peek of the Spring Taster Boxes coming soon! They also have a little mystery for us - which Marie Wallin British Breeds color is missing from the display? Let us know! Caitlin walks us through the steps of washing a wool fleece, and finally Kim of Turning Ground Yoga has another lovely yoga session for us.
