    I am a crochet designer and you have inspired me to go out of my comfort zone and knit. You showed me that there are some flowy things you cannot achieve by staying stuck with crochet. Crochet works for what it works for but to get that elegant drape and a proper lace, knitting is the way to go. Thank you so much for being such an inspiration.

      I agree! There are so many gorgeous stitches with crochet, but knitting is becoming my favorite. I just started to crochet something with a new yarn and could quickly tell I needed to knit with it. Crochet just couldn't do it justice. I will always like doing both though. And I'm obsessed with beautiful yarn. Expression Fiber Arts definitely has gorgeous yarn!

    I know this video was 2 years ago now, but just watching it. I just downloaded the Sonder pattern and pre-ordered two sets of yarn in Sonder Hues and Gnome Hues. Can't wait to make this beautiful shawl for Fall! I have learned so much from watching your videos with each pattern! I was so intimidated by knitting before but have advanced so much now from your instructional videos! You're my GO-TO knitting channel!! Plus, I don't order yarn from anyone else now! I used to order from another site online but after getting your yarns, none of them compare in color or squish appeal! lol Also, I love the out-takes and your husband's filming! Always brings a smile to my day!

    Looking forward to trying this, thanks! Quick question, though. I like your idea of alternating colors every two rows and not having to weave in ends, but what about when you have long swaths of one color and you switch to another?

    • @ExpressionFiberArts
      @ExpressionFiberArts  2 роки тому +1

      In that case I just recommend cutting and weaving in your ends. OR you can twist the colors at the end of every other row to essentially "pull" the yarn up the side. :)
