Hunting Season DK and tracking down the perfect project bag

The weather’s getting cooler, but we thought we’d brighten things up with Hunting Season Orange and Pink. Both of these fluorescent fibers are sure to get you seen from afar, whether you’re out in the woods, or at the fiber festivals! 

This week we have a special guest: the Junction Fiber Mill team’s most prolific knitter, Liz! She’s sharing her extensive collection of knitting project bags and notions. If you’re looking for tried-and-tested recommendations, Liz is your girl!
