Bishopstone yarns podcast, episode 33, #knitting podcast

 Episode 33 of the Bishopstone yarns podcast is now up on youtube for you to see.

I was a few day late getting this one out as I have been sick with covid. This made it very hard for me to talk for any length of time without coughing, but I did manage to get a video made and put up on youtube. It may be a bit shorter than usual and without an intro as well but it is a video none the less.

I must admit that I struggle a bit with getting the type of footage I would like to include in my podcasts ( I guess that is the correct name for these videos). I seem to have a lot of trouble downloading from any of my devices to my laptop, therefore I have been filming everything on my laptop. When I had a different laptop and phone I could easily and most importantly , quickly download from one to the other. Now it seems to be a huge ordeal and so it puts me off trying again. I do think I should try and work out what I am doing wrong.

I hope you enjoy my video and please leave a comment as I always love to hear what everyone else is doing and making.    

Thankyou for watching

Sit and spin 32, #spinningpodcast

 Bishopstone yarns, sit and spin episode 32 is now up on youtube for you to watch. I have finished my Birkin from my handspun and try to decide which colour to spin up next to ply with my black merino silk. I am having trouble deciding which colour would be best to use with such a dark single.

Sometimes it can be the small decisions that hold up a project for the longest time. Even though I am keen to start spinning on my next lot of singles I am finding it hard to make a decision about the best colour to add to my singles. I dont want to end up with a barber pole effect for this spinning project so making the right choice is important.

Maybe you have some suggestions for me. I am feeling like I need to start a new spinning project while I decide what to do.
