What a treat to hear this podcast today and so interesting to hear your take on the Olympics in progress. Quite the incentive to find this to listen to. I even got the 10 st underarm seams kitchenered on the very cute Sweet Bunting Cardigan that is my first stranded colorwork. (Well, I did one before, a long time ago, and erased it from memory.) Now to finish up those two seams and on to wash/block it.
