On this episode, we celebrate knitting successes and woes together as always, with overalls for Francis the donkey, naughty pups who delay our sock knitting dreams, and much more. We're in the midst of our Summer Sock Sprint and have the new-to-us Mountain Meadow Cody to show! We also have segments from Kelsey, Emma, and Yoga with Kim to keep you company!
