Slow Pace Knitting Space Podcast | Ep. 7 - Mending Knits

Welcome! My name is Michelle Matthews and I talk knitting, designing, and the process of fitting them into my current season of life.Show more

Today we take a look at the first finished sock of my upcoming Children’s Stollery fundraiser socks – The Max Sox. The Max Sox are inspired by recurring motifs in Banjo Kazooie and Mario Kart, and are made in the memory of my cousin Max, who passed from cancer 15 years ago. Aaand that’s it for knitting! I also show some fun masks I’ve sewn as well as a few mending projects I’ve been working on.
