Hello, I'm Vanissia, welcome to the twenty-first episode of The Woolly Worker Knitting Podcast where I go over finished items, works in progress, and plans for future cast ons. 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

Woolly Worldwide:
Snap a pic of your favourite knit, in your favourite place, and send it to me by email, ravelry, on discord, or post it on instagram with the hashtag #woollyworlwide to be featured in a big photo gallery with everybody during the stream. I will pick my favourite photo and gift you a sweater quantity (to be announced soon). Open worldwide. Make sure to let me know where the photo was taken and what pattern you are showing off!
