Hello, I'm Vanissia, welcome to this special episode of The Woolly Worker Knitting Podcast where I go over 8 garments that I sadly never wore after knitting them in the first place. This podcast is a place for me to chat away about my knitting, plans for the future, yarn acquisitions, etc. I keep a very detailed description box, but if you have any questions, drop me a message :)

12h CHARITY KNITTING LIVESTREAM

Details: On the 2nd of January, to celebrate my podcast anniversary, I will be hosting a 12h-knitting livestream, to fundraise a goal of £3000 for the charity Samaritans, in the UK. Read more about them here: https://www.samaritans.org/scotland/about-samaritans/our-organisation/what-we-do/

There will be lots of knitting, giveaways, surprises, sponsors, podcasting guests, trivia, polls, and activities, it'll be 12h of fun, relaxation, and nerdiness. A way to finish off 2023 and welcome 2024, all together, and for a cause close to my heart. I'd love to see you there, so save the date, spread the word, and participate in the activities if you can! I am so excited about this, and would love to chat more about it so my DMs are always open :D
