In which I reflect on how I learned to fail, relearn how to spin cotton and promptly not have time to do anything else, spin some Gecko Shetland, talk about fibre characteristics and the ‘rules’ for preparation choice, make some project progress, announce the Side Bet winners, beg for recipe ideas, and don’t make any progress on the Tapestry, but find out who designed it! Thanks for listening!
