Show 25 - Knitting in Welland

This week Ann Westren takes us into the world of Fair Isle and Aran knitting at the Easter Show, Marion Jack of the Australian Alpaca Barn talks to us about her alpacas and her business.
Charles of JigraKnits presents his thoughts on how his location affects his knitting in his essay 'Knittins in Welland'.
Another big thank you to Mandi of Ewe give me the knits for the selection of fibres to try spinning, I think it's going to be fun.
