Ep 130: More Iceland Fiber Adventures


The second in the Iceland Fiber Adventures series! Marsha and Kim finished their trip and some projects and then head for home.  Full notes with photos and links can be found in the podcast section of  our shop website: TwoEwesFiberAdventures.com.  Join the community on Ravelry or become a patron and support the show on our Patreon Page.

Kim (KMDesigns) and I had great plans to record every 2-3 days but time, and the need to sleep, meant that we ended up recording Dispatch #2 on the night before we headed home. Therefore, we only discussed what we did that was fiber related but below are links to everything we did.
