Fiber Optics:
Bill hasn't learned how to knit yet, so Jade solo'd this part of the episode- Jade is getting "antsy" with the number of projects she currently has on the needles, so she finished two of them that had been languishing:
- The “Scott Pilgrim” hat out of Cascade Eco in Green & Lion Brand homespun.
- If you haven’t seen the Scott Pilgrim movie, you REALLY should. It's a comic book movie.)
- And you also need to see Kick-Ass, which is along the same lines.
- Finished Lacy Diagonal Scarf -- made from handspun yarn from SpinU
- Jade still has 5 on the needles.
- Aran sweater -- it's been slow going
- Katwise gloves - Fingerless gloves inspired by Katwise, who creates upcycled sweaters and handwarmers.
- Denver Cowl -- auto-pilot knitting for knitting groups or other gatherings.
- Color Affection (in Miss Babs Yet) -- catch when catch can
- Swirl Coat -- which is in slight hibernation with the warm weather.

She also brought her sewing machine to get the timing fixed as she broke 6 needles while trying to sew linen. The following animated gif shows how a 'lock' stitch is created in a sewing machine and how important the timing is correct.
