Show Notes
Today. On Wool n' Spinning Radio. Dionne sat Rebecca & Rachel down to quiz them about Knit City Vancouver 2025. Rebecca & Rachel had spent the weekend exploring the marketplace, meeting with everyone in our community & of course, shopping. We also fell into a bit of a rabbit hole about porosity as it applies to wool and blending.
