Knitting Across The Pennines Episode13 23-03-2020
Contents
We recorded our first video podcast on Valentine’s Day 2020, We’re learning all the time and getting better with the tech, but at heart we are knitters and crocheters, that’s what we do best. Today’s chat and checking in with everyone to see how we are all doing with our social distancing or quarantine.
We had a longer chat and Virtual Knit Night to keep one another company and our spirits high. As we both work from our homes for our knitwear designs we’re calling our drinks/beverages a Quarantini while we socially isolate ourselves to stay safe. We show off some recently finished knitting objects (FOs) and we also link to the patterns mentioned below the video.
If you’d like to see any of those videos, we’ve shared links on Facebook, you can see the live on Facebook and also on our Youtube Channel Knitting Across The Pennines with Emma and Loraine.
Today we are chatting about colourwork, stranded knitting, stripes with lace, tension/gauge issues, floats and how they differ.
We have a free Facebook group where we go live once a fortnight for our Q&A and also post our pre-recorded video content in between. https://www.facebook.com/groups/knittingacrossthepennines/
Our Cowlabunga KAL starts mid March with the hashtags #knittingacrossthepennines and #cowlabunga There will be prizes for the best FO’s made during the KAL and spot prizes of pattern codes for FO and WIP photos shared on social media with the two hashtags.
