I’ve been really bad about posting updates of my knitting progress.
Part of that was because I had some surprise gift-knitting in progress. I knit a pair of Fiber Trends Felted Clogs for my mom, my dad, and my mother-in-law. Unfortunately, I didn’t quite get how Brian’s new camera works and the pictures I […]
