Episode 76: Nacho Typical Episode

As the title alludes to, this episode is not a typical episode as we only cover Yarn Over 2013 event details. Please excuse any choppiness due to editing out interruptions. We will be back to regular recording schedule and content in May.

REMINDER
Make sure to get your entries in before May 1 for the Marigold Jen and Self-Striping KALs

Where are the Zombies?

Sorry!  No episode was recorded this week.
Megan's family is still dealing with the GI plague, and in the interest of quarantining Amy and letting Megan rest up, this week's episode will be delayed.  Instead there will be a  recap of Yarn Over 2013, posted no earlier than Sunday 4/28.   Thanks for your understanding and sorry for the lack of episode this week!
