Episode 22 of the Podcast – Knitting injuries, weaving on a rigid heddle loom, and May blooms

I haven't been doing much knitting of late because an old wrist injury has come back. I do, however, have a couple of projects to show in this episode, and I also demonstrate the process of setting up and direct warping my rigid heddle loom for weaving some woollen cloth. There's also a garden update showing all the blooms and veg that are coming along nicely, and some calm walks in the countryside.
