Watch this episode of the Shopcast on YouTube!
Join Corinne and Maggie as they talk about their current WIPs. Maggie's started her sock project for April and Corinne is working away on her Magdalenasjal for our Shawl KAL. The ladies also show off a new yarn for the shop, new color combos for the Flowers of Fortrose pattern family, and so much more! During this episode we also hear about Emma's steeking adventures, visit Rachel and her sheep on the island of Fair Isle, and learn to stretch out our hands to ease knitting pains with Kim.
