Yarn

Um, I am really close to being done with my Sun Salutation cardigan.

This is by Celia McAdam-Cahill, and I am hold, you hold two yarns double.

I think she recommended, like, a fingering weight and a kid silk or, or some kind of lace weight.

I'm using Knit Picks Gloss and Trailhead Yarns and Fiber in Cabot Trail, which is a Tencel lace weight yarn.

Which kind of leads us, well, first we have a letter to talk about, but then today's topic is going to be a customer, not customer, a listener requested thing.

Hey, TRN Radio, tell us about Thread.

And that was Mike's letter.

Mike, we talked about last week, and he's like...

To make a stitch, you need those things.

But first, we have a letter to get to.

But first, so we're going to talk about Thread because our last week's letter, one of us talked about Thread.

But first, we're going to talk about this week's letter.

Like, from, from the toe end where it is connected and just see if I can pull out and then sew it in a shorter way.

And I think if I can do one set of yarns on each side, 'cause it's, it is a DK weight yarn with a mohair.

So I think if I can find one set and pull it out on each side, it will make him a little bit less beefy.

So that's my...

And I'm excited about this.

I think it's gonna look great.

It's a, it's a, the fabric is making a pretty fabric that's interesting because the two yarns are kinda different.

So, but that's the Celia Macadam Cahill.

So, garnir blat.

Yes.

Garnir is the yarn.

Er isis.

Blat is blue.

It didn't...

It was the yarn.

It's

too weighty.

I didn't love knitting with it, but I really like wearing it, and I would...

Cotton is hard...

Yeah, and I would literally use the yarn again to make something.

I like wearing it enough.

I once thought nothing could beat playing with a ball of yarn, but Peggle tops it.

I'm keeping the yarn, though.

Yarn still hits the spot every so often.

That's a

Tots obsession, of course.

It's a side to side knit garter stitch shawl that is meant for self-striping on the two outsides and then a contrast color in the center.

And so I did the same thing for this one, except I'm using a solid yarn for this one.

I'm using Valley Yarns Huntington in colorway 22, which is Navy, which is a very solid Navy blue, US 6 needles, 4.0 millimeters.

And like I said, I used the instructions from Millie Margaret, cast on at the side, increased up.

I forget to exactly how many stitches, but maybe 20, 25, something like that.

The contact information will be available at the end of the episode.

All right.
