Hi Gals! GREAT episode, as always. I love the blanket block designs! FYI- In 1993 I took a few knitting classes in NY with Beth Brown Reinsel. Beth told me "A good knitter is a good ripper." That piece of knitting wisdom has stayed with me. Ripping helps a knitter to "read" and understand the process. I was very happy to hear your group discussion discussion on the topic.😊

Great episode as always. I do a lot of Colorwork with multiple colors at the same time. Long ago I started using plastic sandwich bags with a hole made with a hole punch. you can seal the yarn ball inside and feed the yarn out the hole. I have cats too and this prevents them getting a ball and decorating the room. Also when you are finished you can store the remains of the ball and the ball band inside the baggie. I know the bags are not the best for the environment but when a yarn is used down to its last bit, you can reuse the bag for the next yarn. I have to come back and just say how amazing the moon photographs are. Like part of an art film. Such talent!

Loved your Words of Wisdom segment. I recently learned to do brioche. It was very frustrating and got ripped back (not in a friendly manner after the umpteenth time). I finally put it aside for a week, got over being mad at it, and was able to do the stitches mostly correctly. Decided it was my first project using that technique and I would just forgive the mistakes. Finished it two days ago. The pattern was free on Ravelry, Beginner Brioche Beanie, and I will wear it proudly. Love to y'all.

@nonifidler4547 6 ай бұрын
Kim, there are ways to even out the twist in your yarn. Which do not actually have to do with the spinning but with rewinding the singles back to the beginning BUT from as long a distance as your room can accommodate. I take the brake off the bobbin and set up my bobbin winder which holds sectional weaving bobbins and some of my wheel bobbins and load the bobbin as evenly as possible. This allows the twist to drop down and even out along the singles. Plying from a distance by putting the kate far behind you helps the excess twist to drop out along the length as well.

Regarding adding the sleeves and body on the same needle have you thought of placing them on a smaller needle and knitting them from a larger needle. I know that using two needles might be a little much but think that would work

Maybe you could call the section answering questions Technique or light bulb or cues. I usually take a daily progress picture because somehow pictures reveal mistakes more than just looking at the knits. Take pauses and stop to "admire" your work, this also hepls catching mistakes quickly. One recommendation for lace knitters : LIFE LINES !!! I totally agree with Betsy, Rowan prints the color and lot number very small on the label. 😉I use Simone's trick a lot. Kim, I love your hand spun yarn, it looks great !!! I don't spin but I love hand spun. I was so lucky I met Vicki, a spinner who doesn't knit, at the dinner during the fiber festival last year, so I bought a lot of her handspun and we exchange her yarn for my knitting, we are both so happy !!! Great harmony part, I love these photos of the moon.

@FleeceHarmonyPodcast 6 ай бұрын
Yup - that was it!
@maryarneson5815 6 ай бұрын
I have to ask, perhaps I'm missing something, your Selkirk worsted, is a partial worsted spun (method of wool preperation) that in most patterns it is called for it is listed as a worsted weight yarn, (9 wpi) but on your shop page descriptions it is described as 14 wpi, which is actually lighter than a dk weight and is between fingering and sport weight. Is it possible to perhaps clarify?
@FleeceHarmonyPodcast 6 ай бұрын
There are 2 different things in your question. the mill we use is a semi-worsted process. True worsted spun yarn is spun from combed top and creates a very smooth yarn with not a lot of air in it and parallel, organized fibre position. the other end of that spectrum is woollen spun where the fibre is not "combed" and is left somewhat disorganized. tis creates a "fuzzier" yarn with lots of air pockets in it. Our equipment has a machine that slightly combs the fibre so it is not completely disorganized when it goes to the spinner but is not as smooth as a worsted preparation either - in other words semi-worsted. As for the weight of the yarn, it is a light worsted. I think I will remove the WPIs from all of the descriptions. There is a variance on how they are described depending on what chart you look at. Some charts group worsted and aran together and say the WPI is 9 - 11 and DK and Light Worsted is 12 - 14 (grouped together). When we were doing the descriptions way back when, I don't think we came across the "light Worsted" description - which seems quite common now. And, our yarn has become slightly finer now because of the wool we are sourcing it from. It's a single source mostly now and the flock sheep have quite a consistently finer, smooth wool that means the actual strands of yarn are a bit thinner. This is exactly why for my own knitting, I don't look at any of those things when I am substituting yarns. I figure out the weight per yard of the yarn used in the pattern and choose a yarn that has a similar weight per yard and similar fibre content. For example - I don't substitute a 100% wool yarn for a silk blend and expect that same fabric. Finally - I always swatch! Sorry for the long answer, but the question was complicated.
@maryarneson5815 6 ай бұрын
I understood the semi worsted part but was unsure if the name was referring to the prep or the weight class, I'm so sorry for the confusion. I was curious of the wpi consideration as a hand spinner I tend to look for the wpi as it gives me a better description than the yards per gram, because the grams per skein can vary with amount of loft twist and draft. (and prep) I apologize for being difficult, honestly I don't mean to be, it's just how my brain clicks. Hahaha thank you so much for taking time. I appreciate it very much. I'll just have to order a skein 😉 oh what a hardship for me 😉, " oh no,, more yarn" hahahahaha😁

Learning to read one's knitting is by far the most important thing to learn in knitting. I think I will spend a lifetime getting better at it. You mentioned a number of teachers who are good resources. I would add this video by Norman of Nimble Needles. Of all the resources I have seen his video has been the most helpful. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/msqSqs2onriao4k.html&ab_channel=NimbleNeedles I also find knitting swatches from stitch dictionaries a good exercise. And I want to learn to graft lace and all the things so that I understand how the yarn travels.
