Episode 6: Needles at the fair: Blue ribbon success stories.

In this episode of Meliss knits for fun, I’m sharing the excitement of winning blue ribbons at the county fair for my knitting projects! From handmade socks to cozy sweaters, I talk about the projects that brought home ribbons and what’s currently on my needles. You’ll hear all about my latest WIPs, knitting patterns, yarn choices, and project updates—perfect inspiration for knitters who love seeing what others are working on.
If you’re looking for knitting ideas, yarn inspiration, or new project motivation, this episode is full of cozy, creative energy. Grab your needles, cast on with me, and let’s talk knitting
