Show Notes for Q&A LIVE 4/19/15

Apr 21, 2015Freebies, How to think like an artist, Knit like a fiber artist, Q&A LIVE1 comment

Live Q&A no. 2 and I feel like a seasoned pro… I had given myself most of the day to set up…and I ended up with about an hour and a half to kill. But I do know I need to find my old headphones, the mic was way better on the old headphones. So I apologize for the not ideal sound quality. I am tweeting with each episode.

So without further ado here is this month’s LIVE Q&A.

So here is the link to last month’s LIVE Q&A.

The Half Linen Stitch

I also mentioned the half linen stitch. I learned this from Laura Bryant’s color theory workshop years ago. It is great for combining yarn (works best with an odd number of yarns)

Cast On: Multiples of 2 + 1

For this pattern you will need to know the following techniques:

Knit – k

Purl – p

Slip Stitch – sl

Yarn Forward – yf

Yarn Back – yb

Pattern:

Row 1 (RS): K1, *yf, sl 1, yb, k1; rep from * to end.

Row 2: Purl

Row 3: K2, *yf, sl 1, yb, k1; rep from * to end.

Row 4: Purl

Repeat rows 1 – 4 until you have reached your desired length.

 

Here are the books I mentioned. While several are out of print, used copies are available on amazon. I was also excited to see mostly mittens has been reprinted and available in kindle form.

    Sorry I missed it. Other than a trip to WalMart for some essentials I spent most of Sunday in a state of brain death.
