Master Knitter, Blown Yarn, and an Old Aran Sweater // Casual Friday #2

This week I answer questions; show a project I'm working on that uses a "blow yarn" (and define what that is!); explain what it means to be a certified master hand knitter and certified knitting teacher; and discuss the possible rescue or destruction of a beloved old Aran sweater.
