This week, we're navigating a spectrum of human experience, from profound tragedy to creative triumph and digital disruption. Join us as we reflect on the heartbreaking impact of the recent Kerr County Flood here in Texas, sharing insights on community resilience and the road to recovery.

Then, we'll shift gears to the meticulously crafted world of garment construction, delving into the age-old debate of top-down versus bottom-up sewing methods. Discover the benefits and challenges of each approach and how they shape the clothes we wear.

Finally, we'll pull back the curtain on the latest "Etsy Drama," exploring why so many independent makers and small business owners are choosing to boycott the popular platform (again!). What's driving this movement, and what does it mean for the future of handmade goods?

We will also give you some great websites to check out if you're looking to increase your yarn stash!
