  6. FO Friday - Stay Soft Shawl

    We're at the Unravel Festival and I'm literarily blocking my new jumper on the hotel room floor, hoping for it to dry so it can be shown off at the opening next day. We're exhausted after set up, we've had our hearty dinner, and we're ready to crawl into bed for some evening knitting. George is knitting away on his...

  10. WIP Wednesday – Blocking and Swatching

    This WIP Wednesday I am going to talk a little bit about blocking and swatching. I recently saw on a friend and colleague of ours Natalie Selles' (@leeleetea) instagram stories about how she was struggling to work out her gauge over a large area of cabled and textured stitches. Even though she had swatched for the project. She wasn't getting...
