Congrats to the Moorit Makealong prize winner, Jbryanttoo! In other MAL news, Alyson finished her Kishie vest... ok so maybe it was a wee bit past the MAL end date. But at least that's an FO in the 2024 bank for Alyson to make up for the fact that she only finished 4 projects in 2023. Vivian on the other hand completed a whopping 24 projects last year!

The ghost of knitting past is back to haunt Alyson, but she's totally a pro now. Just kidding, she drops a stitch while recording this episode (lol). But in better news, her Jade dress is looking less like a bolero and more like a crop top. And Vivian even has a new project to talk about... at least someone is managing to present FOs around here!

The Archive KCAL is over, and we're celebrating by picking not one, but two lucky crafters to receive some lovely prizes! Vivian has been a knitting machine, with three WIPs on the go, including a new one. Alyson meanwhile is still chugging along on her De Danann shawl. And both have rather interesting FOs... sort of "non-FO FOs"... or is it "second time around FOs"? You can be the judge of that!

Neither of us are professional crafters, but we've finished an impressive number of projects, if we do say so ourselves.

You can probably guess what the cult is. We are all part of the cult. The cult is life. It's knitting and crocheting! We're off bumpy start because our Buzzfeed quiz results didn't peer into the deep recesses of our souls like they usually do, but we have a lot of projects to share with you all today- new and old!

Things to look forward to in this episode? Alyson and Vivian being typical Anglophiles, talking about Jane Austen and Doctor Who. Alyson is going a bit nuts over her first C2C project, prepare yourself for some babbling!

You win some and you lose some. In Vivian's case, you mostly lose some! There's the obscene knit fail (you'll just have to listen to find out more) and a sort of lose-win not-really-macrame macrame plant hangers. One thing that's definitely an absolute win? Alyson is working on her crochet sock for the massive #sockcal2018 Oh, and you know us, there's plenty of chit chat about other non-crafty things, mostly TV shows to be honest.

We're just regular crazy Asians, but we cannot stop talking about Crazy Rich Asians the movie... Alyson even has a Crazy Rich Asians themed WIP! Vivian has gone a bit more traditional with updates on her color work Engi sweater (spoiler: it has been a troublesome project). Plus Vivian has started a new hat project using some of her "Meet the Shepherd/ess" yarns from EYF.

Most productive crafter goes to Vivian this time around. Her Sock Arms sweater is finally off the needles, plus she's already started her next fingering weight sweater! Alyson has more excuses than projects, but one of her FOs is in celebration of her first pattern on Ravelry being available to download as a PDF. Swish! Stay tuned for our Nerdtastic segment too where we discuss Asian (North) American film and TV.

Together again! Together again! We took a short break in our adventures, galavanting around Scotland to record a special video episode... because we're together again! All this vacationing means Vivian has had loads of time to knit knit knit, but her Sock Arms sweater is still on the needles! Alyson, meanwhile has lots of new WIPs to talk about- a shawl, a market bag, and a cushion. Plus we have lots of chat about what we've been getting up to.

We'll call this one a "curated" episode. It's short, but sweet, and full of accomplishments. Alyson has successfully tried her hand at intarsia crochet, with the not so insubstantial help from Fay's new Stiallach Bag Collection pattern. And both Vivian and Alyson have exciting FOs! Alyson's has been long in the works, while Vivian's is one you may have forgotten about.

If we know anything, it is that Vivian will make multiple versions of patterns she likes. Also our cats love a cameo. Vivian has finished her second pair of Fiddlehead Mittens (featuring a Sushi cat cameo). And she's working on her Wool and the Gang socks which are cool, but not going quite to plan. Also not going quite to plan, Alyson's Pleated Cardigan... oh dear.

Slow but steady wins the race (maybe). Both Vivian and Alyson are taking that philosophy to heart, each with small projects underway for the KALCAL: hot water bottle cover for Alyson and dish towel for Vivian. In other news, Alyson is grumbling about both her tank top and her sweater, but don't worry she still loves her makes.

We haven't gotten quite as much knitting and crocheting as we would have liked. Vivian has been hanging about at home with 2 of 4 daughters and Alyson's has been ignoring everything except her current read, Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay by Elena Ferrante. But we're revisiting lots of projects you might already be familiar with. Alyson's blanket and Blurre shawl, and Vivian's Bubbly sweater and Korra hat. Thanks for tuning in!

Things to giggle about in this episode: Minions, husbands in craft stores, and sperm. As @lisa_raspberrycrochet pointed out, a common project theme this week is short rows. Vivian is having fun with short rows and Alyson is despairing over short rows. Expect many more short row hats in Vivian's future because she bought Woolly Wormhead's Elemental ebook.

The Edinburgh Yarn Festival is over, but we're both riding the EYF high and knitting and crocheting up a storm. Vivian is making progress on her Bubbly sweater, and surprise, she's both finished a hat and started ANOTHER hat. We don't call her the hat goddess for nothing! Alyson is loving the Blurre shawl (crochet's answer to the Find Your Fade). There's a Blurre Along being hosted by Earl Grey Crochet until April 30th. Definitely join in, it's a great make.

We also have a few special guests making an appearance. Louise from Caithness Crafts , Clarisabeth of Crochetcakes , and Caroline from Mind and Muse Crafting all kindly joined us for a mini recording session at EYF.

We're together again, this time in New Hampshire for a short episode to kick off the month. Vivian has another "experiment" to show off, but Alyson is starting to insist that these aren't experiments, they're bonafide designs. This time it's a colorful infinity scarf. Alyson has finished her Wisteria Trellis shawl for the Blacker Yarns PodKAL, and with plenty of time to spare. You can subscribe to our show on iTunes and YouTube .

A virtual high five to whoever can get the title reference before listening to the show! *Call me, beep me, if you want to reach me* The Ultra Violet KCAL is winding down, but there's still time to submit your FOs to the Ravelry thread. Both of us have finished our KCAL projects, although Vivian has done three to Alyson's one. Alyson's Carloway Cowl and Vivian's Fiddlehead Mittens both feature color work, but someone's color work is much more impressive than the other! (*cough* Vivian *cough*) Vivian has also been working on more, surprise, hats! But not just any old hats, she's been experimenting with designing her own using daisy stitches.

Plus, we're also participating in the Blacker Yarns PodKAL because we're just so excited for Edinburgh Yarn Festival! Not to mention, Alyson has also joined in The Crochet Circle's One Skein Wonderland CAL. Bitten off more than she can chew? Possibly...

Despite living in Scotland, Alyson has not picked up much Scots, despite her excellent results in the Scots themed Buzzfeed quiz. Can anyone tell us what a gabfu o glaur is?? Vivian has been churning out hats like it's her job and Alyson is still contemplating crocheted socks. Also, by the way, we have very wide feet. Here's hoping Rohn Strong can help Alyson crochet correctly proportioned socks. Buzzfeed Quiz: Can You Translate The Scots Version Of Harry Potter?
