[@kariclarke4215]

Thank you so much! I always second guess myself in the beginning then end up doing things over, and over, and over. . .

[@AlpacaDirect]

You're welcome. I'm happy it helped. :)

[@sesshylover17]

[@sesshylover17]

Thank you, you counted and knit the slip knot. that is a first for me, nice to know that you can count and knit the slip knot, I either knit the slip knot and the last st. together or not knit at all.

[@sandymims445]

Very helpful

[@bonnadowns524]

Thank you so much 💝🙏

[@valerina01]

This was very useful even though I knit English style and as a beginner knitter, the continental style can be distracting. This pattern is challenging for a beginner but doable if you go slowly and pay close attention. Thank you.

[@sheilareno6329]

Thank you for your video. I was making the increase wrong. I use a post it also.

[@pamnakaoka1678]

thank you for the video appreciate it!!

[@dianechicklo7961]

that's a good idea with the posted note

[@AlpacaDirect]

Yup. They are handy :)

[@livingunn5250]

Thank you🧶

[@peggybrown7436]

Thank you for this video tutorial. on my pattern for setup on row 2 it say K3 P3, and I heard you say p1. I there a correction on this pattern? Thank you.

[@juliakarn3989]

Why add the stitch marker? Pattern doesn’t say to add. This is my first shawl project so trying to understand. Thanks!!

[@valerina01]

I was wondering the same thing!!

[@gilliandipetta6210]

there's no need for the stitch marker.

[@shannonoliver5414]

I wondered the same thing.

[@Maggie-ig7fg]

I don't understand the need for the stitch marker either. Gets in the way especially when doing the set-up.

[@TheCSAggie]

It's really simple, if you dont need it, don't use it. I find it helpful for keeping track of RS/WS especially if I have to set WIP aside and come back to it.

[@blogiegj]

And you start the new color after your setup rows?

[@angelagilliland1784]

How do I get a paper pattern for andrea mowry shawl? Thankyou Angela

[@anapauladasilvaoliveira8144]

I think there is a mistake with the first rows... like it's on the right side and it says it's on the wrong side.. sorry if I'm wrong, thanks

[@robinleech3278]

I've been watching your pad casts for the NightShift Shawl! they are extremely helpful. I do have a question! I've been doing a 'test' run with scrap yarn - and when its time to change yarns (Sec 1 Row 1) to color B - color A ended three stitches from the end (as I create that I-cord edging. so now I've got color A hanging off the back side while I work color B! when I switch back to color A I have this yarn dragging along the back of the work! Yikes. and sadly, my shawl start looks nothing like yours! how do you handle changing colors? many thanks.

[@Antt_RN]

Andrea Mowry's own channel has a video on doing color changes with an I cord border. It helped me immensely, I had the same problem as you! Check out her channel!

[@slaugeri1344]

Do you know. If the alpacas are humanely treated & sheared? I want to use more natural fibers, but I know that the animals are treated brutally

[@cindyjshidel9706]

I dislike the way she knits.
