Current and Finished Projects

Sherri:

• Knitting on her April Cardigan out of Old Rusted Chair Squish DK in the color Scatter. 

Tamara:

• Knitting on a new hat design out of Malabrigo Rios in the color Lettuce. It isn't really hat weather yet. But hat weather is coming and she's excited so she cast on. 

Swatch: Review of Berroco Comfort Yarn

In this Swatch, Sherri and Tamara review Berroco Comfort yarn. This is a 50% nylon, 50% acrylic yarn that is super soft and durable. They took a little time to discuss how it knits up on different types of needles, ply/twist, how it handles cables, lace and texture, their impressions of the yarn and its price point.

That's Entertainment (what we're watching, reading, eating and playing while we knit)

Tamara:

• Following The Swiss Shepherdess on Instagram. She highly recommends it. Lots of beautiful photographs of the area and thoughts as they travel through the Alps of Switzerland. 
• Pumpkin! It is still summer weather. But she's craving Fall and all things fall so she's been making things out of pumpkin. So far she's made pumpkin cookies, pumpkin bread, pumpkin soup and pumpkin curry.
