arieknits Ep. 73 - Finished Sweet Shop Blanket + Summer Cast Ons!

[@SallyGKnits]

Always look forward to your videos. Always give me motivation to knit more❤❤❤❤

[@madisonmonteze]

Oooo excited to see your fiber dyeing!!! ❤

Love the Sari tank. You did a beautiful job.

Your Sweet Shop blanket is beautiful! For washing it, try filling your tub with cold water and wool wash, add some color catcher sheets and only soak for 20 minutes. The cold water, color catchers and reduced soaking time will all help reduce the chance of color bleeding.

You are such a delight, Ariel! I really needed a cheer up today, and I spent this episode knitting on my Albers tank, eating ice cream and drinking tea. I'm always inspired by your projects and I'm seriously considering spinning, thanks to you!

[@arieknits]

Aw thank you so much!

[@sharondanielson3366]

We could see the northern lights all the way down in South Carolina too! So cool!

[@arieknits]

Amazing!! So glad you got to see it too!

[@cleoklobucher3062]

I saw pictures of it. Your items are beautiful, and you are an excellent knitter.

[@MikiCrespo]

You are such a talented knitter 💙

I’m SO glad you decided to make the Purl Soho cowl! It’s going to look awesome in the colors you chose and it’s great that it’ll use most of two of your leftover skeins. I cast on Sari’s Ballard Tee while watching. I’m thinking about it as my soft intro into her patterns.

[@arieknits]

I also want to make the Ballard Tee! Hope you enjoy making it!

Stunning projects! Especially the pink tank you are wearing. What a labor of love! For your striped tank, have you considered the braided “weave in” method to finish with all those ends?

[@arieknits]

It's a method that I will consider!

[@SundayMorningKnits]

Have you knit a ranunculus? You could probably use that one skein of silk sock for that! Thank you for such a lovely podcast!

[@arieknits]

ooo that's a great idea! I've knit a ranunculus before in a suri!

Hej Ariel :) I love your handspun weekender. The different colored fiber gives the yarn so much more depth and interest. I am spinning also on a multicolored yarn, with some green, purple, pink and orange, from far the singels look purple brown. Here is an idea for your melt shawl: maybe you could hide all the ends by pulling them into the i cord?

[@arieknits]

That's a great idea!

[@oldwitchknits-Ursula]

Your Ogee tank looks fantastic! And I find the colour suits you really well. It's always easier to tell in person and in daylight but I think the neon pink will also look great on you. I'll be casting on a stripeless Slanty Stripes tomorrow. In plain old cream. Yes, I am that boring 🤣 I'll probably join the discord but I am really not good with that. And I also never take pictures. Maybe I can get over myself and properly participate lol.

[@arieknits]

So happy to hear you will be making the Slanty Stripes!
