Ep 5 Ancient WIPs and Laundry Gremlins (Jan 2025)

(Episode 5: Ancient WIPs and Laundry Gremlins
EleventyOne Things is my shiny new RUclips podcast! I’m here sharing behind the scenes experiences in the studio of EleventyOne Windmills while I make all the knitting tools and accessories, plus chatting about my (many) wild yarny adventures!
Its January at Windmills HQ and I’ve been surviving the Australian Summer School Holidays as best I can while trying to squeeze in some quality time with my yarn! I’m sharing my completed January socks for the Secret Stash Busting Sock-A-Long KAL that I’m hosting this year, plus a reveal of my randomly selected mystery yarn for February. A new WIP plus a couple of ancient ones which I need your advice! Plus some upcoming shop news for EleventyOne Windmills! It’s a solidly packed episode and I only laugh at my own idiocy about eleventyone-million times!
