Hello and welcome to the Yarniaks podcast.

This is episode 51, which we are recording on Tuesday, December 10th.

What are you wearing, Shalene?

Sorry I was counting.

I am wearing my Walpole sweater, which for some reason I keep forgetting the name of that,

and I keep asking, Gail, what sweater is this?

I cannot remember the name, Walpole.

But it is a sweater that I knit, oops, let's see, my notes have closed, I knit my sweater. It wasn't that long ago.

Last year. Last year. Oh, it was this year. Oh, the beginning of this year. I knit it in March. Yeah. I knit it back in March.

And it was almost too warm to wear it.

And so I've been wearing it a lot recently at home because it's just this big cozy open sweater.

It's kind of a wrap sweater and it kind of has drapy fronts, but not super, super drapy.

It's just a little bit of an oversized cardigan.

I knit mine in the Garn Studio drops alpaca, which is very soft, very wonderful.

Mine is in a lovely gray, so it matches everything.

I love it, love it, love it, love it.

It does look really, really comfortable. It looks light as air. It is really light and I've been wearing it so much. I was telling

I've got a snag on each arm that I need to repair because they're kind of staring at me.

And you're also wearing? I am also wearing a cow, my alewife's cow, that I finally finished, and I've been talking about

knitting it for the past couple of weeks, and I'll talk about it more later on, but that's a nice

double-wrap cow. Very cozy.

And we're both double layered in hand knits today
