Episode 74: A Random Sad

In which I work through a day’s worth of sadness, make some plans for spinning yarn, talk about how my Level 4 final project went (hint: badly), finish the Hedgerow mittens and make some more progress on other projects, feel guilty about not working with the Autoknitter, and make a promise about the Accolade. Thanks for listening!
