episode 11: stash tour part un

hey all!
i apologize for the huge delay in getting up show notes for stash tour part un, as well as for the fact that it is taking so long to get through my stash tour...i had no idea it would be this time intensive and i'm a little bit embarrassed about the size of my stash. it had definitely done me some good to look through and see all the great things i have in there and get rid of some in the process. hopefully some of you can benefit from my destashing effort! haha

one additional note about knitting the clapotis with silk garden lite: because of the wool and mohair content of the yarn, the stitches do not drop as easily as if done with the yarn called for or something of a similar fiber content.
