Hi everyone and welcome back, today Keira is being co host as we do a book review for Dishcloth Diva Knits On! by Deb Buckingham, published by Cooperative Press and was gifted to us for this review. I hope you all enjoy the full show.

Important announcement for younger viewers, Keira will be starting her own video podcast Called 'Be Yourself, Knit Ewenique' it is aimed at children around her age who enjoy knitting, spinning and general crafting for fun. It will be recorded the first day each month, and is her way of encouraging other kids to be creative. She will be doing her own book, yarn and pattern reviews too. Please show support and let your children watch and comment to her. She is now on ravelry too, but you must pm me Elspeth81 before friend requests will be accepted.
