Midnight Ballroom Ep 4 - Fiber, Floss, and Fairy Kings (Part ONE) - Video

Welcome back, Briar Rose Brigade! Grab a coffee and a craft, and come join me for Part 1 of Episode 4! You see, my internet finally staged a mutiny, and I will be chopping up long episodes in the future. One must adapt. And this podcast is worth adapting for! I'm really loving this.

(I almost called this episode "Trans man immortalizes own tiddy" but I...did not do that. Probably for the best.)

Feel free to ask about other patterns or yarns I mention--I may or may not remember but I can try to answer!

When talking about Welsh and Brythonic things (such as the Mabinogion), I like to share the channels of a couple of Welsh people who talk about Welsh mythology, literature, and folklore.
