In this episode of the Casual Friday podcast, I have Tidbits, updates on my WIPs, and things I learned at a thoroughly relaxing knitting retreat.
Support me by buying me a coffee on Ko-fi! ko-fi.com/roxannerichardson
My knitting designs: ravelry.com/designers/roxanne-richardson
The sweater I'm wearing is one I self-designed. There is no pattern, but you can see the Ravelry project page for the sweater here:

If you have questions about this video, or suggestions for future videos, please let me know down in the comments or on social media.
