Episode 61 – Jacqueline Cieslak

Hello Pomcats! How are you? Spring feels like it’s just around the corner, so what better time to get out our microphones and have a chat about all things Pom Pom?!

TELL & TELL

Sophie's Snowshoe Socks

It wouldn’t be Pomcast without talking about what we’ve been making! Sophie has finished several pairs of Snowshoe Socks and found the cables and detailed lace of Atlantica a delightfully absorbing knit. A Soirée jumper is currently on her needles, a Pom team favourite from Knits About Winter!

While Lydia has been spending her time sewing, making sure her bottom half is well covered by the All Well Studio Pants (trousers) and the Made My Wardrobe Josie underwear

Are you working on a Pom Pom project too? Don’t forget we’re running a year-long KAL, find out more here!
