Let's Talk About Heels

I had a very positive response from the episode on toes, so this episode I talk about heels! I hope it is not too basic for y’all!

WIP: Rocky Coast cardigan, Wingspan, Downton Abbey MKAL (DAM KAL! LOL), Skew Socks for Mom

Goals: Knit the four skeins of sock yarn I have in my radar! Run a 5K all the way (better get training.)

Knitting class at the college in February - wish me luck!

Lesson on Heels:

• Heel with Gussett by Wendy Johnson

• Afterthought Heel by Laura Linneman (Tutorial by Leslie here.)

• Short-row heel (Learned from Pretty, PKJewelry)

• Sweet tomato heel by Cat Bordhi

• I mention Carin from Round the Twist as well as a reference.

Back in the Saddle, Again

In this episode, I talk about all the Christmas knitting I finished up (huge FO parade, well, not really a parade because I only have pics of most) and that I have been fairly monogamous lately. I blame Megan, justrunknit.

I forgot to mention a wonderful new podcast, A Down Under Yarn by one of our very own, Fiona! fifikins. She is so funny! And already being mentioned on many of the more popular podcasts, you go girl! I am so happy for you! Please forgive me for my forgetfulness. I will try to remember for next week!
