Link Love: Laura is a Yarn Star

My link of the week is our favorite roving stationery reporter and knitting queen, Laura! She posted a link on her knitting/spinning blog about her secret identity as a knitting technical editor. If you’re curious about this unusual career, check out the interview. Laura is multi-talented and multi-faceted and I’m delighted to share this interview with you. Give her kudos in the comments!
