    I am making the Jethro. Doing it with the Knitting Place. Love the stories, and the popcorn, haha! I think it would be great for everyone to try and find new sweaters for Rhinebeck- makes it so fun to see different designers and styles. - Kimberly

    Whenever I have made a blanket using granny squares, I find I enjoy making extras in case I want to switch it up. What a great idea. I’m glad you are crocheting this pattern so I can hear all about it then maybe I will decide to do one also. Keep us posted!

    What a lovely video this was. Such calm and sweet but joyful energy, truly healing to watch :)
    I love the breadth of different colours you have going on in your handspun skeins - ive been spinning for a little over a year now and I find myself really hopping from fiber to fiber, getting a single braid here and there, which makes me scared its all mismatched. You're really showing me that i just need to keep going and ill be able to combine them somehow anyway and that makes me very happy

    • @whiskyandwool

      Yes, it's so cool to be able to mix and match! I do buy multicolor roving, but I've also combined fiber from different dyers and different fiber types, mostly by combo spinning since I don't have a drum carder.

    This is such a fun project. I really want to make one of these too. Thanks for sharing your process.

    Hi Shannon, love listening to your stories about your stepfather taking his own snacks into the movies and the popcorn refills. He was very frugal. I do take my own candy into the movies but I will buy the popcorn.
    I am currently working in the Elliot Romper for my future granddaughter who will be here this summer.

    Hi Shannon, thank you for sharing your color musings, i hope i use this word right. It feels so much like my process of mixing ratio, experience, dreams and feelings to work through the process of constant wonder and surprise with fiber and wool...very inspiring. Also to understand more about your family background and the impact...thanks for hanging out with us...

    I started this project myself just last week and I’m also not a crochet-er. Bear in mind the joining rounds add inches so my 5.5 inch square ended up 6.25 inches.

    • @whiskyandwool
      @whiskyandwool  8 місяців тому +1

      Yes! Thanks for the tip! I here for it to be on the big side- I just couldn't fathom 65 square, haha! ❤❤❤
