On this episode, we're in the midst of our annual Sweater Knit-Along. Corinne, Maggie, and guest Caitlin have their sweater project updates. Rachel joins us for an update from summer on Fair Isle. We have a restock of Making Tracks to show you, Davaar by Kate Davies, and a very special yarn joining the shop today, Killen Sock Yarn from Black Isle Yarns. To celebrate, Corinne sat down with owner/dyer Julie Rutter to talk about her process and more! Enjoy that interview at the end of this episode!
