In this episode Marsha and Kelly talk about the fun they had at the Northern California Knitters Retreat (#NoCKRs on Instagram for more photos). The retreat was held at the St. Francis Retreat Center. We had such a great time! Thank you to the organizers, and thanks to Duren Dyeworks and Kicks and Giggles for donating the door prizes that we won. Thanks also to Dizzy Blonde Studios, Miss Babs,
Alana Dakos of Never Not Knitting, Buffy Ann Designs, and Gnome Acres for all the goodies in our NoCKRs bags.
We had fun knitting and meeting new friends. We also found treasures in the destash room and made some stitch markers.

The charity for the retreat was Knitted Knockers. Participants donated over 90 of them for women who have had mastectomies.
There was a show and tell of knitwear that led us to yet another discussion of fit! We know we said we wouldn't discuss it again for awhile, but we learned some interesting things by looking at all those sweaters.
After the retreat we enjoyed fabulous burgers at JJ's in San Juan Bautista.
After our conversation about the retreat, I podcast with some feathered co-hosts about some of my upcoming adventures.
