Stocking Clocks and Colorful Sheep // Casual Friday S6E15

In this week's Casual Friday podcast, I show the progress in my 17th century reproduction stockings of Gunnister Man, which include the stocking's clocks, and the heel, plus a look stocking clocks found on the silk stockings worn by the upper classes. I'll also share the last five squares knit from my hand spun breed study, which come from breeds that have a lot of color variability.
