Live and Learn Podcast Episode 10 – Sock Talk
NOTE - I tried to add another video onto this episode, but the tech flummoxed me. I wanted to say that the vintage yarn that I showed toward the end, that had moth damage - those vintage yarns are stored in their own little tote and isolated from the rest of the stash. The moth damage was present when I purchased those skeins at the thrift store, but I just couldn't resist the vintage labels, and do hope to use what I can of the skeins someday, and maybe frame the labels. Rest assured anything I share in giveaways is in very good condition! And now...
A brief look at socks, because, let’s face it, socks would be their own series!
Books –
Spinnerin and other vintage pattern books – can be found on Etsy and eBay, and of course thrift and antique stores, auctions, etc. Fun to look back at and a wealth of information.
