2025 Knitting & Sewing Wrapped: The Good, The Bad & The Socks

Описание: Welcome to my making podcast - A show and tell about my knitting, sewing and other occasional crafts. In this episode, I'm wrapping up my 2025 making year! I'm sharing how many skeins I knit through, my 5 favourite makes of the year, 3 finished objects that didn't quite work out and need some love, a review of my year of socks challenge, and celebrating my sewing wins. Join me for an honest look back at what worked, what didn't, and everything I created this year.
