In this episode of my biweekly knit/crochet/thrift podcast I’m celebrating my birthday along with the six-month mark of my charity marathon: My year long goal to knit and crochet 26 miles of yarn into items to donate to charity. Check out the show notes below for details on the people, patterns, yarns, and charities mentioned in this episode. You can find me on Instagram @pinssneedles and on Ravelry and YouTube as kaylarevae.
