    I was sitting in my home alone, quite miserable, and while looking for some music on TH-cam this video popped up... And now I'm knitting vigorously the boneyard shawl, way much happier, all sad thoughts gone away... Thank you Stephen! 🥰

    Stephen, yesterday morning I finished my first Boneyard Shawl and am proud of it. I started knitting it in 2018, so the pattern I began with was your original Boneyard Shawl pattern. My shawl was in hibernation for 4 years, so when I got back around to it this month your revised pattern was available. I used the I-cord bind off and it's perfect for this shawl.
    Yesterday afternoon I began my second Boneyard Shawl, in large part because I found this video so inspiring. Love the changes set forth in the new pattern: garter tab, three garter stitch edging, I-cord bind off, plus general explanations to help us along the journey.
    I love watching your videos, even if I'm not knitting the pattern at hand. Your attitude is always so positive and your kind warmth comes shining through. Thank you, Stephen.

      @StephenWest  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If you add an increase on the WS by adding an increase after the first 3 stitches on the WS and before the last 3 stitches on the WS, that will give you a longer wingspan and not as deep at the center of the shawl. ;)
