Summary

This week's episode is sponsored by:

The world is always changing, and it's time for changes at Bar-Maids. After much reflection on the state of the growing world, and the impact humans are making on the planet, we're changing our commitment to sustainability in a much more impactful way, without losing sight of our mission to provide the "best hand-crafted moisturizers that come from the heart." We're also changing our name to LoLo Body Care. It won't be confused with exotic alcoholic beverages any longer but we'll still answer to Bar-Maids just for you! Stay tuned to learn about how we will be reducing everyone's carbon footprint.

Carry your creativity with Erin Lane Bags! Whether you show your fiber fandom with the woolly wonder Sheepleverse, or dive into history with the Curiosities collection, our project bags, totes, and hook and needle organizers are at the ready to keep your hobby happy.

We all have it, we all snicker about it.

Fun Fur.

Whether it's eyelash, boucle, or just generally furry, it's hard to find projects for novelty yarn.

With a sweet face, spiraling horns, and delightfully rotund body, Friendsheep by Cate Carter-Evans lets you
transform your novelty and textured yarns into sweet, fleecy little friends. Pattern available on Ravelry; more info at infinitetwist.com

Books plus knitting plus happy memories. That's Little Skein in the Big Wool. We make kits, yarn and project bags that bring your favorite stories to life. Find *your* favorite story at littleskein.com
