The Yarniacs Episode 324: Vacation Knitting Jun 14, 2024

Show notes

Traveling this season? Sharlene's favorite tip is the reminder to pack your dental floss. That little cutter in the dental floss case works on yarn just as easily as the floss. (You're welcome! 😎)

And a reminder that the annual Colors of Fall Knit-Along starts on or about June 20, the day of the June Solstice in your area!
