Episode 67: Change

In which a mistake in the Accolade leads me to contemplate change, begin getting myself a studio space and get ready to teach, talk about the lots of flax skeins to spin for Level 4, do some knitting math and make a little progress on other projects, am still not knitting on the Autoknitter, and reconsider how I feel about the Accolade. Thanks for listening!
