Sam and Sophie Hurley are third generation sheep farmers, at Papanui Estate half an hour out of Hunterville in the Rangitikei. Their wool used to be rolled out for carpets, but with the recent downturn in demand they've spotted an opportunity to create an uptick in the wool industry.

Spring Peepers are singing their chorus at night. Hyla Brook by Robert Frost. Needle Notes: I steeked the Norwegian Sweater and used i-cord Three Needle BO to join the shoulders. Find videos showing technique on the show blog. Eunny Jang's video on steeking is fantastic! Blethering Room: Woolly Serger Thread is not wool. It is nylon that has a brushed coating. Find extra thick Woolly Nylon at Schoolhouse Press. Tips: Use Kid Silk Haze for reinforcing heel, foot and toe. No need to cut and weave in ends. Wooly Nylon works well. Anna Lena uses Slip Stitch Heel technique on the soles of her children's socks. Love this idea! I test drove (walked) my darned socks and they feel great. I darned another sock and am getting better at my technique. Thanks to my Celtic Cross friends Karen, Heather, Rob, and Deb (and of course, announcer Kevin) who faithfully listen to Knitting Pipeline. Music is Amzing Grace recorded at a regular Thursday night rehearsal.
