Fleece & Harmony Knitting - Ep 4 - Substituting Yarn, Swatching Tips!

Welcome to the Fleece & Harmony Knitting Podcast! Our podcast is recorded on our sheep farm in beautiful rural Prince Edward Island, the home of Anne of Green Gables, the PEI Fibre Trail and the manufacturing site of the World famous Belfast Mini Mills. Today we cover the topics of swatching for your knitting patterns, how to substitute yarn more effectively, and knitting in the round on small circular needles. We discuss an article by Jillian Moreno of www.masondixonknitting.coom regarding yarn substitution and the factor of the "grist" of yarn. https://www.masondixonknitting.com/gr... https://www.masondixonknitting.com/ya... We also discuss living off the grid with a Bona Fide expert, our friend Amanda Jackson of the Amanda Jackson Band. http://www.amandajacksonband.com Pssst...all the members of Fleece & Harmony actually appear in Amanda's video called 'Dance Into The Light". We also launch our new 100% Canadian POINT PRIM sock yarn, which is a mohair/wool blend, and launch a new pattern by Kate Atherley made with the new yarn. There is a giveaway of this pattern generously sponsored by Kate which you can enter through our Ravelry group for the podcast here: https://www.ravelry.com/groups/fleece... We launch our first Knit-A-Long. and provide a pattern discount for our mitten Knit-A-Long (KAL), generously offered by the talented Pia Kammeborn of @kammebornia Finally we demonstrate how we wash and dry a sheep's fleece in preparation for spinning it into wool.
