Episode 17 of the Podcast – Slowing down, batts and spinning

In this episode I'm slowing down towards a winter break to spend time with family, away from work! I talk about some patterns that have been released recently, either that I've designed or using my yarn. I also show some blended fibre batts that I've created, which are now available on my website. Towards the end there's a nice long segment of my process for spinning some luxurious yarn from batts I've carded.
