Episode 5 - Knitting WIPs, Frogging Drama, & Stephen West MKAL Adventure! 🧶

Welcome back to another episode of my knitting podcast! Today, I’m excited to share updates on my current knitting works-in-progress (WIPs) and a big decision to frog one of my recent projects. Plus, I’ve officially joined the Stephen West MKAL – Go Go Dynamo and I can’t wait to get started!

In this episode, I’ll be chatting about:
Rust Test Knit – A fun test knit with beautiful texture and color. Progress is slow but steady, and I’m really happy with how it’s turning out.
Oslo Sweater – This cozy sweater has been a soothing project, perfect for the cooler weather. It’s coming along nicely!
Webster, my Cable Cardigan Design – I’m still deep into the design phase for my cable cardigan. I’ll share my progress and some of the challenges I’m working through with the cables and construction.
Tolsta Tank Frogging – Unfortunately, I had to frog my Tolsta Tank due to a gauge issue. In this episode, I’ll explain why I made the tough decision to rip it back and how I plan to revisit this project in the future.
Stephen West MKAL - Go Go Dynamo – Although I’ve just joined the MKAL and don’t have progress to share yet, I’ll talk about my yarn choices and my excitement for diving into this year’s Stephen West Mystery Knit-Along!

PLUS: My upcoming Bushland Breeze sock design is almost ready for release! Inspired by the Australian bushlands, this pattern will be launching soon—perfect for your fall and winter knitting lineup.

And as a fun bonus, I’m introducing my adorable cow-patterned cat, Mochi, who’s the inspiration behind my channel’s name! 🐾
