Episode 34 of the Podcast – Summer wool knits, gratitude, a bit of basketry and a garden visit

I'm enjoying some lightweight knits that are perfect for an English summer. There are a few designs I've finished recently, as well as a fun, improvised knitting project. I share a little look at a couple of baskets I've been making recently, and there's a visit to Bryan's Ground, a beautiful garden in Herefordshire.
