Knitting

We are a mother-in-law (Erica) and daughter-in-law (Daphne) duo who love to spend our free time crafting. Welcome! This episode is about knitting. We appreciate you spending time with us.
WHO WE ARE
Erica is married to her high school sweetheart, and they have four children. Their three sons are 28, 21, and 16, and their daughter is seven.
Daphne is married to Erica's oldest son, and they have a five-year-old son, a four-year-old daughter, a two-year-old son, and a one-year-old son.
Our home is a multi-generational household with both families together under one roof. Life is busy, but there is always time to create something beautiful and useful!

We were at the Apostle Islands for vacation last summer. Beautiful. I love that colorway.

[@RoseOpalKnits]

Nice! 😊
It's a gorgeous color way, but I am sure it pales in comparison to the natural beauty of the Apostle Islands Lakeshore.

[@karenmezzacapo8763]

😊👏

[@RoseOpalKnits]

Hi! 😊😊

[@CarriPage]

Thanks so much for sharing - I always enjoy watching. I need to go figure out Discord now so I can join the Christmas in July KAL.

[@RoseOpalKnits]

Thanks for watching! Yes, please join us. 😊😊

[@deannaknopp5020]

Erica I love that cardigan. I can’t wait to see it finished. ❤ what is the pattern name?

[@RoseOpalKnits]

Hi! Thanks! It's the Garter Marler Cardigan by Stephen West. 😊🧡

[@paulyknit]

This is my first time watching. What's it like having two knitters in one house? What's the stash situation? Thanks

[@RoseOpalKnits]

Hi! Thanks for watching! It's fun! We like to knit and watch podcasts together. We keep our stash separate, but we do share and swap with each other occasionally. 😊😊

Erica what a beautiful blanket you make. What are the messurements from this blanket.

[@RoseOpalKnits]

Thank you so much! I don't know the exact measurements for the blanket. I cast on 302 stitches, and I am knitting it with 4mm needles. Unblocked, I am getting 26 stitches/ 4 inches. I am sorry that I can't be more precise. I hope this information helps you.

[@klazienvanrijssen7432]

Thank you for the answer.

[@robertamcintyre5854]

What is the pattern for your daughters socks I did not here her say it

[@RoseOpalKnits]

Hi! We are not sure which project that you are referring to because neither of us knit socks for our daughters.
Most of the socks we showed were vanilla socks, one pair was a wide ribbed sock, and another pair of socks were the Celaena Socks pattern by Nicole Enzinger. Daphne also mentioned her plan to knit the Midnight Dancer Socks by Sari Nordlund.
I hope that helps, if not please let us know and we will do our best answer again.
