Researching 19th Century Knitting // Casual Friday 3-29

Описание: In this week's Casual Friday podcast, I have Tidbits, answer a question about reverse engineering a sweater in a historic photograph, relish in some new yarn arrivals from Scotland, and talk about researching 19th century knitting books to find clues about sweaters' roots and how they are constructed
