• Mirasol Sisa
• Filatura di Crosa Tempo
• Berroco Artisan
• Plymouth Nettle Grove (would have to be held double)

Kelly – Clarus by Laura Nelkin – I used my handspun which is made from Spunky Eclectic Mixed BFL in the Iris Progression colorway

Finished Objects:

Kelly – Shoulder Cozy by Churchmouse Yarns & Teas

On the Needles:

Angela

• Mama Vertebrae by Kelly Brooker (didn’t make an appearance on today’s show, but is in progress non the less and was mentioned.  Maybe an FO next week?)
• Whiz Bang by Sarah Shoo (sort of, it has morphed into a drink koozie, when your knitting misbehaves and you want to fling it across the room...)

Kelly

• Morning Sky Cowl by Kelly Otty (pattern being written, check back soon, I will get it up ASAP!)
• Vanilla Socks (did not make an appearance, but are slowly taking shape)

Ravelry Poll: Help Kelly decide her colors/striping order for her Featherweight!
