    We had our yarn hop this last weekend and I was so excited to see your yarn in Fiber Circle Studia in Petaluma, CA. I made sure and bought some and also made sure to mention you in my video going up tomorrow. Lovely yarn, so excited to have it.

    Wish I could come to your retreat, but too far away. Peggy, I am also doing the Lindal cardi, size 5, have finished shape 20, but can't figure out where to go from here, is it shape 21, or do I start shape 1. Just confused at this point.

    Thanks for a fun podcast. Last Friday was a two county yarn hop where I live in northern California. I walked into Full Circle in Petaluma and a beautiful table of Making Tracks was right at the front door. Of course I fondled it and had to look at the colors before starting with a constellation of purples.

    Always enjoy your Mill casts so much. As a child on an island in Maine we sheared our 75 sheep every summer. My brothers and I had to stomp our wool in a frame and pack those big wool bags tight, then roll each one across a field, down a steep slope. ( hoping it would not get away from us and roll in the ocean.) We then would load each wool bag in a dory, take it ashore, drive them to the Knox Woolen Mill in Camden Maine. Great memories!

    My beautiful yarn arrived yesterday, and I caked it up, and knit (and blocked) a swatch for my Lindal cardigan! I'm getting stitch gauge (19st/4") but my row gauge is only 26 rows, and it's supposed to be 32. Did you guys get 32 rows over 4"? Since this is knit sideways, I'm thinking I'll have to knit a size up to accommodate my off row gauge. And, by the way, the cranberry colored sweater that you finished and showed last week, Peg, is a triumph! Gorgeous and interesting....well done.
