Ep.151: Cozy Knits, Whimsical Birds, Wintry Books, Tasty Bakes | Edible Thoughts Makes

Hello!

Welcome to Edible Thoughts Makes. My name is Stephanie (she/her/hers). This episode features all finished projects (mostly knitting)! I discuss a recently released pullover pattern (that I tested), two vests, a cardigan, three hot water bottle covers, two pairs of socks, a hat, a non-fiber craft, a book I’m currently reading plus two novellas I picked up from the library, and some thoughts on self-preservation and setting priorities and boundaries during this busy holiday season that can feel like “obligation season.” And at the very end there’s a food slideshow paired with piano playing.

Apologize for all the focus issues and visual quality of the video! Had some technical difficulties.

What you'll find when in this episode:

00:00 Intro/Welcome
03:12 Finished Projects
39:15 Eats & Reads
42:53 Food for Thought
44:46 Outro - Bakes, Snow, Piano

Closed captioning and video descriptions are included for accessibility (choose the non-auto-generated option).

Prices of items in screenshots may or may not be the same at time of video publishing or when viewer is watching.

NOTE: I choose not to monetize my videos on YouTube. I am not paid for using any of the yarn or for talking about the yarn on my social media platforms. Opinions shared are my own. I choose to not include any affiliate links - no commission for any purchases made by you.


Cheers!
Stephanie
