In the Conductor's Booth: An Interview with Clara Parkes

After the Wonders of Wool class at Vogue Knitting Live! I got a chance to sit down with Clara Parkes. She is such a lovely and interesting person to chat with, and I learned alot both in her class and the interview.

Several resources for yarn that are mentioned in the episode:
