Millcast Episode 140
Jul 22, 2025
3, 2, 1, Cast On!
This week on the Millcast, we’re kicking off our 2025 Rhinebeck Knit Along for the Florence Sweater! Join us behind the scenes at our 2025 Farm & Fiber Retreat, where we officially cast on our sweaters this past Sunday. We’re also thrilled to introduce a brand new Roots colorway, Charcoal, available today at 10am ET! This deep, moody gray is designed to pair beautifully with Pumpkin Patch, making it a perfect match for your Florence Sweater. As always, we take you on a spin around the Mill, catch you up on what we've been up to, and share the latest projects on our needles.
