Episode 5 - Show Notes

Finished Objects
Hermione's Everyday Socks - finally finally finally finished (although, I still haven't added a FO picture yet, I'm pretty sure as soon as I was done, I wove in the ends and stuffed them in my sock drawer cause I was so frustrated with them.  They needed time out.)

What's on my Needles
Hawkeye Socks (basic vanilla 64 stitch sock) in Gnome Acre House Gnome
Seaglass Shell by Daniella Nii from Interweave Knits Summer 2012 in Elsebeth Lavold Silky Wool

I am so sorry about my neighbor's bird.  You can hear him pretty regularly throughout the entire episode, but he's especially bad during this segment.  He's a rescue and their trying to get him to adjust and he's having a really hard time.
