    I love that you talk, with amusement, about mistakes you make and debate whether to let them lie or rip out and redo. It's encouraging to hear that experts make the same mistakes all the rest of us make. Examine it, figure out where it went wrong, laugh, and either carry on or redo. A terrific attitude.

  • @maribeth2906

    The other tip I've seen is to knit a series of yarnover-K2togs near one edge to remind you of the needle size. So for size 8, 8 yarnovers. That way if the tag is lost, you still have that information at hand. I usually do it a row past the initial garter stitch border, and make another border if I change the needle size and do the next needle size, too. I think I learned this is an Amy Herzog class - she is a big proponent of swatching, too!

Luckily I purchased an additional 4 Jennifer Beale patterns, bringing me up to 8 .... suppose there’s a fan girl discount? 😁. Stitch night tickets bought and paid for!

      I love pickled beets! In my family, we eat brown beans with fried onions and potatoes with cornbread and pickled beets. There’s something about that sweet tang that plays off the blandness of the beans and potatoes.
      On another note, I grew up canning pickled beets with my mom. It was my favorite thing to process along with apple butter. (Now my mouth is watering!)

    Lovely listening to you ladies, puts a smile on my face. Love Ken's story! With the swatching, I have found just measuring the stitch count in 4'' is not accurate for me. I had a big phase of not trusting swatches until I saw Suzanne Bryans tutorial.. So now I knit a swatch twice the size, at least 8-9 " wide and the length becomes what ever if I need to try different needle sizes. So I measure how many stitches per inch over 7-8 inches. The result is different to just counting within the 4" space. This has truely change everything, and is far more accurate for sizing for me.

    Super great podcast. I wish PEI wasn't all the way at the other side of the continent (I'm in California USA) because the Festival sounds fantastic. I have a question about Jennifer Steingass' designs. The teacher in a colorwork class at Stitches West told us that these sweaters are notoriously narrow in the upper arms, which I suspect is confirmed by the schematic. Even if I make the upper arm large enough to fit me well, would that spoil the colorwork? How would this pattern look on someone with large circumference upper arm. I am a 46.5 " bust but have a larger than expected arm for that size chest. I guess I could ask this in the Ravelry group.

    • @FleeceHarmonyPodcast
      @FleeceHarmonyPodcast  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I am just about to split for the sleeves, so I will be able to give more informed information in a couple of days. I have sort of the opposite problem: broad shoulders, but relatively thin arms. I have just worked out how to adjust the pattern to make the upper arms smaller. Based on what you just said, that may not be necessary??? In any case, I will do my adjustment and see what happens. I will report back! Kim

  • @kathykeller3430
    @kathykeller3430 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think that gauge in a cotton yarn is even trickier than a wool yarn, cotton tends to stretch so much. I read about swatching the cotton yarn, soaking and blocking, letting it dry, measuring for gauge then hanging it for a couple of days with clothespins attached to the bottom for weight, taking measurements again and using these final measurements as your gauge swatch. I want to make a cotton or cotton-blend sweater for summer, would love to know if there are stitch patterns that work better with cotton, seed stitch or garter stitch over st stitch in terms of achieving a more stable fabric. Rowan has lots of patterns that use 100% cotton yarns but should you be thinking about the stretch factor when knitting anything up in 100% cotton? I made a poncho once out of pima cotton and it stretched over time so this has always bothered me. Is it better to use something like Rown's creative Linen which is 50% cotton and 50% linen if you want a more stable garment? Wondering what your thoughts are on this.

    I have a great yarn bikini story. As a preteen my favorite suit was a green crocheted bikini. I grew up around Honolulu. I went to the pool one day and didn’t realize I was followed home by two girls. My sister answered the door, much to my dismay when I saw who they were. The bigger girl could have snapped me in two with a dirty look. They asked me if they could borrow my bikini as the smaller one wanted to impress a boy. I had a hard time finding my voice but made up several reasons why they couldn’t and sadly I never wore that suit to the pool ever again, I kept imagining how I was gonna get home without my suit on, as I figured they would jump me in the bathroom.

    I knit a sweater dble held fuzzy yarn bottom up for my son. cut off the whole yoke cuz i couldnt frog it. then the pattern wasnt usable cuz it originally had bat sleeves so i had to find out how to make smaller thinner sleeves. then I had to pray how do I dec for this made up yoke dk weight . ? i prayed and the God Lord Jesus helped me I just knew to either dec on body and not sleeve then every 2nd row or every 4 th row to every row . I had to decide between those dec . Well it turned out beautifully !! He was impressed . It was really hard . I ripped up the saranac pattern into little tiny pcs and threw them out . lol PRAISE JESUS

    Take him to your hair dresser and have her make the back and sides same length. then just has to trim the top for next few weeks while it grows back but it will look like a military cut for a bit.
