Giveaways We gave away loads of prizes from the County Fair KAL. Spoiler alert: everyone who entered the KAL won a prize. Tune in and find out what you won. Notes from the Ravelry Group Knitter’s Confessions: a safe place to confess your deepest, darkest knitting secret. Projects Joey is working on a scarf for his son. He promises to finish it by Christmas. Greg is working on his Halcyarn Socks (project page). First sock is complete. He loves the contrasting cuffs, toes, and heels in black, but he hates weaving in the ends with black yarn. Greg is working on the Voss Cowl (project page). Since the last episode, he ripped it all out and re-knit it, switching which color yarn he was holding in each hand. This changed the color dominance and now the yarn is looking how he wants it to look. Greg is working on the Flower Cardigan (project page) for Blueberry. He hopes to finish it soon so Blueberry can wear it this winter. Greg finished a cross stitch lighthouse that he picked up on vacation a couple of weeks ago.
