A knitting episode (21): Boreas sweater, 2 new WIP's, knitting vibes & inspiration + more conundrums

Happy 1st of December, and welcome to this little space. It took a while to record, longer to edit, and then even longer to upload (partly due to a power cut, which may or may not have been due to my perhaps over-zealous hanging of Christmas lights in the trees and shrubs around our house. Ah, well).
In this episode, I talk about my newest FO, my new cast-ons, two rather languishing WIPs, a new project on the horizon - and some knitting inspiration (vibe) from a somewhat unexpected source. I'm fairly sure I also go off on various other tangents and have possibly forgotten things I should have mentioned. If so, don't hesitate to ask in the comments.
I'm so grateful that you are here!
