Knitting, crochet and weaving are all in full swing! Also a frenzy of casting on for a trip to Iceland. Full notes with photos and links can be found in the podcast section of  our shop website: TwoEwesFiberAdventures.com Join the community on Ravelry or become a patron and support the show on our Patreon Page. Kelly’s Projects I’m close to finishing the crocheted sweater! It’s the Habitat Cardigan, crochet cardigan by Jess Coppom. I’m making it with the Lion Brand Heartland that is called for in the pattern. The sleeves are on the hook right now and it should be done by the end of the weekend. I’m still hooking along on the Dew Drop Shawl crochet shawl by Silke Terhorst.  My project is using a gradient handspun that I made from a Loop Bump in teal, purple, and gray. Once the sweater is finished I’ll work on this more and get it finished.  Stashbuster Weaving. Warp problems are fixed! Crowd-sourcing works!  Several listeners helped with this problem. The bottom line is that when warping multiple threads at the same time I need to make sure they don’t twist as I put them on the warping board. Winding onto a warping reel rather than a warping board can somewhat alleviate this problem, it seems. That would explain why the warping process in the video didn’t talk about this potential problem. I could also use a warping paddle as another potential solution. Or I could go back to warping with one or two threads at a time instead of 4.  I finished my Christmas cast-on of Mary, Joseph, and Jesus. It was from a fun kit that my mom found at her Joann store. The pattern is by Ann Franklin.  Never Have I Ever Socks--Fix or Nix project: I have resurrected and fixed these instead of nixed. I am knitting them in tandem on dpns and making them longs socks using a larger stitch count to fit on my calves. So far I am really enjoying them. The double sock blank gradient from Invictus Yarns was too beautiful to nix and destash. Marsha’s Projects I finished Shared Rib by Anne Hanson as a cowl and love it! The yarn,  Old Maiden Aunt fingering in the colorway Crimson Lips, is wonderfully soft.  I finished the first sock of my John O Groats Socks and have knit about 2” on the second sock. I’m using Yarns From the Plains fingering weight in the colorway Cumbrian View. I bought the yarn from the dyer at the Caithness Craft Retreat in May. The pattern I’m using is the sock recipe from Nancy Lindberg, NL7 Knit to Fit Socks. I’m getting ready for my Iceland trip from January 17 to February 3. I’m still mulling over what clothes to bring, but I have my projects ready to go! I’ll be bringing a sweater called Seven Sisters by Sarah Pope using Dovestone Baa Ram Ewe from my stash. Pattern starts with a tubular cast on and is straight stockinette until I stop, knit the sleeves and join them to body and begin the yoke pattern. Should be good airplane and talking knitting. Also bringing a shawl, Dusk Into Twilight, by Rosemary (Romi) Hill. I’m using our Two Ewes Fiber Adventures Replenish Rambouillet in fingering weight. It's a  three color shawl and I'll use Falling Leaves (multi), Bourbon and Suede (Rust), and Aquamarine (aqua). I think the pattern will also be good for knitting and talking. Because I was in the mood to cast on a sweater and use my stash, I cast on a second sweater called Isle au Haut Pullover by Beatrice Perron Dahlen. The stash yarn I’m using is Columbia from Imperial Yarns. It will be an unusual project for me: an aran weight pullover with a high collar.  Daphne’s Skull designed by Ellen Sibelius of Wooly Wonders hasn’t been worked on at all since we last recorded. I thought I would set a goal to finish it by Stitches West the end of February. But that’s unrealistic since I will be in Iceland. I will be lucky to get it done in time for the NoCKRs retreat. If I do, I can bring it to Kelly’s and use her washer to felt it.  Giveaway Winners! Fix It or Nix It Winner won a pattern of her choice up to $12.00 Quarterly Patreon Drawing winner won yarn from Quintessential Knits: Intrepid Otter northwest dyer, Superwash merino sock yarn.

Full notes with photos and links can be found in the podcast section of  our shop website: TwoEwesFiberAdventures.com Join the community on Ravelry or become a patron and support the show on our Patreon Page. When last we heard from the Northwest heroine she had a dilemma. To rip back and use the correct needle size or keep going and bind off, leaving a mistake that probably no one would notice. What did she do? Read on and find out! Marsha’s Projects Almost done with Shared Rib by Anne Hanson as a cowl.  Old Maiden Aunt fingering in the colorway Crimson Lips. I finished the six rows of ribbing and was about to bind off when I realized the ribbing was suppose to be worked with the smaller needles. Ripped back and knitted ribbing again. Daphne’s Skull designed by Ellen Sibelius of Wooly Wonders is not quite finished.I haven’t picked it up since we last recorded. I’ve set a goal to finish it by Stitches West the end of February because KnittyBarb wants me to bring it to the show. I’m about to start the toe decreases of the first sock of my John O Groats Socks using Yarns From the Plains fingering weight in the colorway Cumbrian View. I bought the yarn from the dyer at the Caithness Craft Retreat in May. The pattern I’m using is the sock recipe from Nancy Lindberg, NL7 Knit to Fit Socks. Thinking about casting on a sweater either using New Lanark DK or Dovestone Baa Ram Ewe. Need a project for my trip to Iceland in January. Fix it or Nix It   Ended the first of January. Neither Marsha nor Kelly got their button bands reinforced, but there were a few fixes for each and Kelly nixed a few pairs of half-finished socks.  Events Winter Weave Along--Started October 15 in the Two Ewes Ravelry Group. This weave along goes until the end of March so you have plenty of time for weaving projects.  Stitches West is February 20-23 at the Santa Clara Convention Center. There is a podcaster meetup hosted by Yarniacs and 2 Knit Lit Chicks on Saturday the 22nd in the lobby bar area of the Hyatt (connected to the Convention Center).  Fiber Goals--do you have them? Kelly is interested in the tension between goals, challenges and to-do lists, and the idea that fiber crafts are a hobby that we do for fun. Do you have more fun when you have goals and challenges or when you have wide open choices?  We can discuss this on the Two Ewes Fiber Adventures Group on Ravelry. Come join the conversation! Marsha’s Hopes for 2020 Health (weight, walking, core, knees, vitamins, attitude) In this part of the conversation we talked a little about developing habits and the book The Power of Habit Fun (fibery stuff, travel, cooking, agility) Fiber (colorwork class, Mark’s afghan, spinning, more projects for others) Here Kelly said that she is looking for balance in her hobbies so that she is able to do all of them. Decreased governmental chaos Marsha's distress and anxiety over the state of the country transcends political "sides"  and led Kelly to add the following resource. Bryan Stevenson on Hope To hear an excellent discussion on hop by Bryan Stevenson, jump to about 55:30 in this episode of the  Stay Tuned podcast.  Bryan Stevenson is a death penalty attorney who founded the Equal Justice Initiative. He is the author of the book Just Mercy (also being made into a movie). Kelly highly recommends listening to this short discussion on hope.

Marsha was a Marvelous Hostess for the Holidays and Kelly is considering a career as a Gingerbread Architect! Holiday shenanigans meant the Ewes haven’t talked in awhile. This was a MEGA episode but polling in the Ravelry Group led to us splitting this into two regular episodes. This is the first of the pair.  Full notes with photos and links can be found in the podcast section of  our shop website: TwoEwesFiberAdventures.com Join the community on Ravelry or become a patron and support the show on our Patreon Page. We had lots of catching up to do so the fibery content starts late. Skip to about the 27:30 minute mark if you’d prefer to get right to the fiber adventures. In our conversation about Christmas I promised the Spruce Eats blog links to the gingerbread house recipes. Here they are:   Structural Gingerbread Royal Icing Gingerbread House Tips Kelly’s Projects My newest cast on is a knitted Nativity from a Kit that my mom got me for Christmas. I’m close to finishing the crocheted sweater! It’s the Habitat Cardigan crochet cardigan by Jess Coppom. I’m making it with the Lion Brand Heartland that is called for in the pattern. I’m doing the ribbing right now and I’ve made some modifications to the pattern due to my tight crocheting and maybe my choice of sweater size. I don’t think that the positive ease is built into the pattern.  I’m still hooking along on the Dew Drop Shawl crochet shawl by Silke Terhorst.  My project is using a gradient handspun that I made from a Loop Bump in teal, purple, and gray. The rows are getting bigger and bigger as I go so they are taking a long time.  I finished four towels (out of a warp of six) of my  Stashbuster Weaving. These dishtowels have yellow/gold/orange/brown tones in warp, and I used mostly a cream/yellow cotton weft. My favorite of the four towels I alternated wefts. I used the pattern LDLLD with the cream as the light and a gold cotolin as the weft. I also used pebbleweave and another twill variation so each towel was a different weave structure. They were given as gifts for Christmas. I will have to straighten out my warp before I tie back on. I had some tangling starting to happen and I’m not sure what I did wrong. It’s my first back to front warp and also my first time winding warp threads four at a time. Somehow in each bout of four there was twisting and tangling and it was ok until the end of the fourth towel. By that time the threads were so twisted it was affecting their ability to pull through the heddles as I advanced the warp.  I’ve made two of the Mash it Up hats from the pattern Marsha talked about in a previous episode. I’m using sock yarn scraps that I had been saving for baby socks. I was tired of having so much and I wanted to deplete the jar. They will be charity hats.  Marsha’s Projects I finished a Mash It Up hat for Ben’s girlfriend using this free pattern by Babs Ausherman that uses sock yarn scraps. Great stash buster pattern. The first hat was too big so I knit a second (middle size) that fits great. I also gave Ben and Bar each a skein of Shepherd’s Wool worsted to knit them an 1898 Hat. I hope to finish Bar’s before she leaves on January 9th. I’m almost done with Shared Rib by Anne Hanson as a cowl.  Old Maiden Aunt fingering in the colorway Crimson Lips. Had a mistake and debated ripping back. Check the next episode to see how this ends! The sequel to this cliff hanger episode will be published the weekend of January 4th!

Reviewing the WA Coast Meetup, a fiber mill, inspirations to cure a knitting funk, weaving plans and patron appreciation prizes round out this episode. Full notes with photos and links can be found in the podcast section of  our shop website: TwoEwesFiberAdventures.com Come join the community on Ravelry or become a patron and support the show on our Patreon Page. Thank you to Jean Chambers at  String Theory Yarn and Fiber for helping us put on the Washington Coast Meetup! We had a great time meeting new fiber friends who felt like old friends right away. The unexpected theme of the meetup was dogs! All the attendees were dog owners, the shop has a new puppy, Marsha brought Enzo, and two of the attendees also had their dogs with them. So a beach run with the dogs was a highlight of Saturday afternoon. On our way to Seabrook we stopped by Olympic Yarn and Fiber Mill for a tour by the owner Lynn Lipski. She is also the creator of Lina Yarns. We toured her current mill and had a sneak peak at the new fiber spinning mill that she is opening in Cosmopolis, WA. Her operation is very impressive and her vision for providing a mill for local fiber and helping to build the fiber supply chain is definitely infectious.  Marsha’s Projects I finished Lounging Top by Joji Locatelli. The yarn is Debbie Bliss Juliet.  I also finished the first sock with  Schahenmayr Regia Design Line by Arne & Carlos. I’m using  Knitted Wit Smarties for the toes and heels. Note: 45-yard mini skein is enough for heel and toe of one sock. I’m making another 1898 Hat by Kristine Byrnes with worsted weight. This time using Leading Men Fiber Arts Box Office Worsted in the colorway Wild Goose Chase. The pattern is available for free on the Seamen’s Church Institute: Christmas at Sea website.  Marsha’s Plans I started Shared Rib by Anne Hanson back in February. The pattern is for a scarf, cowl, or infinity cowl. I’ve knit about 4” of the scarf but think I’m going to rip out and knit the cowl instead. The yarn is from Old Maiden Aunt fingering that in the colorway Crimson Lips that I bought at the Edinburgh Yarn Festival. Halloween is coming! I'm thinking about making the Daphne’s Skull designed by Ellen Sibelius owner of Wooly Wonders. To hear more about her designs check out Episode 109. Kelly’s Projects I’m participating in the Oh Gnome You Didn’t MKAL by Sara Shira. I was keeping up with the clues until I went off to Washington for the meetup. The clue that week involved stuffing the gnome so I put the project on pause for the trip and I haven’t picked it back up. The mystery KAL is now over so I know how the gnomes look and they’re very cute. I’ll finish my two in time for Christmas and add a couple more traditional looking gnomes to the bunch, but  right now I’m not in the mood for small pieces, stuffing or sewing.  I did start a pair of socks at the meetup. They are out of Little Fish Stitches yarn in the Seabrook Sunset colorway that is exclusive to String Theory Yarn and Fiber. It’s a very pretty orange and purple combination.  Other than that, my knitting has hit a stall. I'm in a funk. Maybe that’s for the best since it’s almost time for the 19-20 Winter Weave Along!

Off The Needles Gobi fingerless mitts by Anne Hanson, aan exclusive pattern for BNK 2013. Will be released in 6 months I think. Coming up is FIFC 2013 but I'm not joining it. On The Needles Colours of Rain lace and cable top. Still plugging along, I have memorized the lace pattern so it's going faster. Alpaca Sox Mini-socks, a free pattern from Classic Elite Yarns newsletter. I could just fudge but wasn't in the mood for math. Using Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in Pioneer colorway, leftover from making Timothy's socks. I've kitted up three new projects to help me knit faster: my carrot on a stick. Another pair of child socks, Maia Shoulderette, and BFF cowl cocoon from Knitty. The Whirligeek Bought a Tibetan spindle on Etsy in preparation for TdF, can't wait for it to arrive. I've been practicing flicking on my Russian spindle, but I can't get it going for more than 7-8 seconds. Have prepped 2 oz of Cormo, it was compacted so I fluffed it a little. Predrafting, but not making it thinner into pencil roving. Tour de Fleece is in 6 days! Recalculating RouteWatched Grimm season 2 in Halloween. Never do understand why it's so big in the North America. I talked a bit about the Chinese Qing Ming Festival (or Ceng Beng), and I confused it with the Dragon Boat Festival when we eat bakcang (sticky rice with meat covered in leaf), sorry!

I am loving Garage Band and its magic, and I thank Apple for making the software learning curve so much less steep by developing awesome user interface... I mentioned Paula of Knitting Pipeline Hopefully I can fill a niche of non-US non-British knitting podcast, I will talk about knitting and spinning stuff, about life in Indonesia, and random stuff that comes in my life. On The Needles Nespelem cardigan by Norah Gaughan, Berocco Pura Pima as suggested, US 5-3.75 mm Hiya Hiya Sharps interchangeable needles. Finished back and two fronts. Working on the collar, and still have one collar and two sleeves, AND seaming to go. A lot of ribbing and stockinette on the cardigan. Meant to be worn open. Love the yarn, but feeling the FO of a friend, very heavy. Damson by Ysolda Teague from Whimsical Little Knits 2. Three Irish Girls Kinsale Merino Tencel, colorway Serenity blue, a shipment of Sharon's Pick of The Knitter club, which is currently unavailable for new subscriptions. US 5 -3.75 mm Knit Picks nickel. Construction: garter tab, simple garter body, a stockinette edge and loops on the very edge. Working on the stockinette edge, seemingly endless. Thing about triangular shawl: easy breezy beginnings and a long slog in the end. Caravan Scarf by Anne Hanson, from Barenaked Knitspot club. First February shipment, Snow Leopard Trust handspun camel from Mongolia. 2 skeins of brown undyed Bactrian camel fiber (two-humped camel). First time ever knitting with handspun. Love the variety of texture in the yarn. Some (actually, a lot!) of vm (vegetable matters) in the yarn, but easily taken out. CO using US 4 -3.5mm, realized I was wrong about gauge. Went up to 6 halfway through the ribbing and switched to 7s for the body. going to be for dad. Hard to knit for guys especially those who live in a tropical climate like Indonesia. Off The Needles
