Podcast Notes
2/10/26 – Finished! Sweater • Cowl • Spinning
Hello, friends! I hope February is treating you well. I’ve had some exciting finishes to some projects and a new tool to talk about, so let’s go!
Show notes are below and have time stamps and links to my project pages on my project blog, My Favorite Day. If you have questions about anything in the video, feel free to leave a comment or email me, and I’ll be happy to try and answer!

I take some time at the start of the video to share my thoughts on our universal need to periodically find safe spaces where we can all catch our breath and regroup before going back out to face the heavy things of life. I hope that this channel can be, for you, one of those places of respite from the storm. Please take care of yourselves, my friends.
4:35 – Announcements/Shop News
I have some new fiber sampler sets in the shop now as well as some extra skeins of my two winter mystery pre-order colorways from December. I’m also regularly adding extras of colorways I’m currently dyeing to fill dye-to-orders, so check in often to see what’s new!
I’m still working ahead to have new items going into the shop while I’m off for my surgery in March, as well as dyeing club and prize yarns. Thank you for patience and understanding during this unusual time in the shop.
As always, being on my newsletter list is the best way to know what’s new — subscribe from any page on the website.
