Hey fiber friends!
Episode 10 of the Yumi Yarns Podcast is live, and it’s a cozy one! I’m sharing a few cheerful finishes, walking you through the start of my Springtime Sips mosaic knitting project, and showing you where I’m at with all the WIPs on my needles. I’ve also got a quick yarn stash update as I continue the great leftover cleanup of 2025.
As always, a huge THANK YOU to my lovely Patreon supporters—you make this community possible! If you’re not already a member of the Comfort Crafting Club, I’d love to have you join us.
Let’s dive into the stitches!
What I’m Wearing
The Kindly Hosts Shawl
Designed by me, this full pi shawl is squishy, dramatic, and just the right amount of extra.
Finished Objects
Americana Rose Dishcloth
A sweet, simple, and satisfying crochet finish that’s perfect for gifting or sprucing up your kitchen.
Comfort Crafting Club Project – Springtime Sips
This mosaic knitting mug rug pattern is our new make-a-long project in the Comfort Crafting Club. It’s beginner-friendly and super fun once you get the hang of the colorwork repeats.
Tutorial: Starting the Springtime Sips Mug Rug
In this episode, I walk you through how to get started with the Springtime Sips mosaic knitting pattern. It’s a great intro to working with slipped stitches and simple colorwork. I’ll also be posting shorter tutorial clips on Instagram over the next couple of weeks!
Works in Progress (WIPs)
Springtime Sips
Still working through my mosaic mug rugs—perfect for morning coffee and color therapy.

Yarn Life
I’m still deep in my yarn leftovers cleanup. This week’s stars: Sun Valley Fibers, Castle Fibers, KnitPicks, and a surprise guest—Crystal Palace Yarns from way back in my stash. Progress is happening!
Up Next
Marley Cardigan by Beyond Crochet Atelier
This cropped cardi is next on my needles and I can’t wait to start the ribbing!
