Reaching the Summit

Shownotes

To say we are all exhausted is such an understatement I’m just going to take it as read that you know that, and move on.

It was great! Amazing! (Did I mention I’m tired?) I’m going to put as many pictures and links in here as I can because I know I’ll forget to mention someone’s gorgeous yarns or wares…I’ll try to catch up on the next ‘Cast, though! OH! But checkout The Blue Ridge Soap Shed esp. the Hand Repair Soap in “Green Tea”. Also Cheryl Brunette’s Sweater 101 and Chrissy Gardiner’s Toe Up! (soon-to-be incentive books).

I’ll be picking a kit and yarn to be next month’s incentive item. Just lettin’ you know, it’s gonna be kickin’! As you know, I love me some Mission Falls 130 Superwash Merino!

HELLO!

I’m Heather Ordover

Hi there and welcome!
I'm glad you found our little corner of the internet. It's a safe place to hang out, listen to a good book, and maybe get a little crafty while you do.
CraftLit has been going (almost) weekly since 2006 so we have quite a few books in our Library for you. If one isn't to your liking, I'm sure you'll find another that is.
Relax and let your ears do the reading for a bit.
