Story of the Week and Stash Enhancement I did a lot of stashing, 2 sweater quantities for one sweater pattern, and a knitting machine. I have played with it some, but I am very distracted by new WIPs, so when I spend more time with it I will let you know. I also received some very happy mail which you will see in video form. We had some remodeling done in the master bath, new shower that is little more convenient for Ted.
