Cami looks amazing and I like the colour.

I’m so happy you knit the Traveler Hat for the challenge, too! And thanks for mentioning the wonky shape! I was wondering about that! It was great seeing you layer on more of your knits as you talked about them. It made me smile seeing that!

Also, for figuring out how much of the “white” yarn you’ll need for the back, couldn’t you weigh the front and assume you’d use about the same amount in the “white” for the back?

For the pillow case - the back side you can knit it in white but with a textured pattern ( cables, weaved basket, waffle stitch, granite stitch) so that its not boring, and you can even knit in another solid color not necessarily off-white

Dear Ariel another wonderful episode and I love very much how the Quens cami looks on you, I especially love the short rows on the back! I think this construction would flatter me too, thank you!

Thanks for sharing, you are always so prolific with your projects. Love the queens cami on you, probably gonna have to make one now too 😊

oooh i love the colours of your stripey tank! the tiny shells shawl is really lovely! i have been thinking I need to make a ravelry bundle of single skein shawls - this is perfect to start me off.

Making a ravelry bundle is a great idea!

Hi, Arie! Your Queen's tank looks great on you, but I have a question. Did you wet block the tank? I would imagine that wet blocking could improve the too-tight back neck bindoff.

[@shamszakhour6076]

Your Tiny Shell Shawl is so cute!!

[@arieknits]

Thanks so much! I did wet block the tank and it did help to smooth out the bindoff but it was still a little puckered.

Hi Ariel! I love your makes! I’m just wondering what you used to dye your white yarn to make it a little less yellow? Thanks so much.

[@arieknits]

Hello! I used a dharma acid dye color called sand dune which is a light grey :)

[@CasualKnitter]

Personally i see very little difference between the died and un-died yarn, I guess it depends on what you see in reality
