    Episode 10 | Game of Wool: Final

    Seven weeks, fourteen challenges, two dogs, four Team GB divers, and more crocheting than anyone could have anticipated, we reached the final of the Game of Wool. Adam and Georgia dissect the tasks and the result, and reflect on the first series of this flawed but redeemable show. This is a reupload, fixing the missing audio at 25 minutes into the episode. For more information about the yarn bomb bunting opportunity mentioned in the showcase spot, you can find more details linked below at Sew Knit Craft’s website. Your bunting triangles can be knit or crocheted in any yarn, then either dropped off in person or posted to the shop. https://sewknitcraft.co.uk/blogs/news/bunting-knit-crochet-a-long
