Congrats to the Moorit Makealong prize winner, Jbryanttoo! In other MAL news, Alyson finished her Kishie vest... ok so maybe it was a wee bit past the MAL end date. But at least that's an FO in the 2024 bank for Alyson to make up for the fact that she only finished 4 projects in 2023. Vivian on the other hand completed a whopping 24 projects last year!

Both Vivian and Alyson have a new project on the go, but no finished objects to speak of... that's because we were too busy on a little family vacation. We spent a few days on the Isle of Arran and had the best time, so do excuse us for having a little chat about that.
