Knitting Podcast Ep. 45 || Shawls, Whimple, and A New WIP

Описание: FOs from the past:

**A Sensible Shawl from the book, Jane Austen Knits, edited by Amy Clarke Moore. I modified the pattern, because I couldn't figure out how to do the Van Dyke edging, so I just didn't knit it. I used Lion Brand's Pound of Love acrylic yarn in a blue hue. I think I used either a US 8 or US 9 circular Knitter's Pride wood needles.

**Biased Shawl I saw via Youtube, blog post, pinterest, etc. I used Lion Brand's Mandala yarn from about 5+ years ago. I believe it was a sport weight, and I don't remember what knitting needle I used. I added I-cord ties to help it tie around me, and I don't know if that was a good idea or not.

**Rose or Bridal Whimple from the book, Norwegian Handknits, by Sue Flanders and Janine Kosel. I used Lion Brand's Wool Ease Mandala light weight yarn. I believe I used the recommended needle size from the yarn band, but it has been years and I didn't keep good notes.

WIPs:

**Dishcloths: Simple self-drafted pattern that anyone can do garter stitch at the bottom and top, as well as 3 garter stitches on the sides. Then, I knit stockingnet stitch for a bit until I place a garter bump on the right side of the fabric, by knitting on the wrong side of the fabric. I am using Peaches and Cream 100% cotton yarn I get from Walmart. You can use any size needles for the yarn you choose, and I tend to use US 7(4.5mm) or US8(5mm). Moving along with my goal of making 25 this month.

*New CAST ON and it will be a usable gauge swatch*
Morning Star Wrist Warmers from the book, Knit Like a Latvian, by Ieva Ozolina. I am using leftover Knit Picks Palette yarn in Pool and Orange with DPNs in the size US 0 (2mm), although the pattern recommends US 000. It's my first time knitting colorwork with DPNs and so far so good.
