I’ll Knit If I Want To: Episode 145

Welcome to I’ll Knit (& Spin!) If I want To! I asked y’all to send in some of your questions (from everything from fiber arts, to designing and on!) so I could put together a little video for y’all every Friday doing my best to answer your questions! Sign up for my newsletter here: Sign up for the DRK Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/diPxsr In this week’s episode we cover: 1. Hi Andrea! a few days ago I washed some socks in the washing machine but accidently used the wrong cycle :(( most of them slightly felted but are still good enough, except of a pair of newly finished 3 colors colorwork socks, that I can no longer fit over my heel. Is there anythingI can do? Or is this pair doomed and I just have to find a friend with a smaller foot size and gift them the socks? 2. You mentioned that you spun three braids of fiber together - how did you do that? Like how did you split the roving? Was it multicolored roving? Did you spin three singles and then ply or it is two-ply? We need the deets!! Fiber shown from Wee Chickadee: https://www.etsy.com/shop/WeeChickade... 3. Hi Andrea, I absolutely love your new Traveler shawl!!!! When I first saw it, I immediately wanted to cast it on with one of my handspun but I quickly realized that it's not the right gauge. :( I have 860 yards for 150 so a lightweight fingering to a lace. Do you think it could work if I hold it double with a mohair or a sury or would it still be too light? Thank you for answering and for your lovely podcast. 4. Hi Andrea, so impressed that you walk and knit that I have started doing the same. I’ve had to train my dog to walk along side me off leash so I don’t have that distraction and have been having a blast! So thanks for that inspiration. My question is, “what material have you used for the pinup board on the wall behind you?” I think it is important for the design process to have things out to look at for future projects as your brain works on them while were doing other things and it helps the morphing process into an idea or project. 5. HI have a question about blocking and yarn content. I knitted a sweater out of nightshades by Harrisville Designs, which is a cormo and wool blend. The color is gorgeous and it knitted up pretty well, but the fabric created is pretty rough. I haven't blocked it yet as I haven't worked with this particular blend before, and wonder if I should use cold water, warm water, steam (?). There are only a handful of reviews of this yarn on Ravelry and a few mention that the yarn is very soft, so I'm very confused, but hoping that the yarn will soften after a proper blocking (whatever that method is).
