Hello! I am outside for this episode. There are many cameos including grackles, woodpeckers, Mallards, Chickadees and “the dogs”.
I forgot a few regular segments, like introductions and to thank you all for reaching out whether through social media, Ravelry, or email. I appreciate your feedback. The show notes might be a bit sparse but if you have questions feel free to PM on Ravelry or email. Hope all is well with you.

Dear Sarah,
Your video casts are always fun and interesting but this one was outstanding! Great scenery, you in a beautiful cabled sweater, and the beautiful background were a visual delight.
I loved seeing the yarn you received in the yarn swap. The first one was so long and smooth with just a little natural sheen that it could have been mistaken for a wool silk blend.
The video track of the yarn production was fascinating. I’ve never had the opportunity to work with yarn from a small mill that makes specialty yarn. But if I get the chance, now I will be so grateful to the mill. What a complex process it is; but the end result was lovely. Even on video, it looked so soft I just wanted to reach out an touch it.
I’m way out here in Thailand and I don’t know if I will ever get to Maine or even back to the US. But I hope to make the best use of my time here and seek out the places in Thailand that produce the best handmade goods. As I do, I will write about them.
Thank you so much for your video podcast. It brings me a little touch of home, even though I’m not from Maine, it’s one of the few states I have not had the pleasure to visit, it is still very much like the lifestyle I had in the Pacific Northwest.
I wish you all the best and look forward with pleasure to your next episode.
Sa Wah dee Ka!
