Podcast Episode 222 – Please Read the Show Notes


Staci here – I’m feeling so sick and sad today with the news of the school shooting here in Texas. I have debated whether to release this episode. We recorded this on Monday, a much happier day. Maybe our cheerfulness will be a welcome distraction, or maybe you can save this episode for a day that it feels more appropriate. Thanks for reading, hugs to you and yours.

Slow Motion Backwards Loop Cast-On

In this video, I demonstrate the Backwards-Loop CO in slow motion. This is not a sturdy CO, like one you would use to start a new project, but it is handy for adding a few stitches.

Sturdier cast-ons, good for starting a project –
Long-Tail CO
Knitted CO

The shawl on the mannequin is Lilli Pilli, link to my Ravelry project page.

The sweater I’m wearing is store-bought, not hand knit. 🙂
