thank you so much for mentioning and your compliments 🥺🤍 also loved your video!! very interesting combination of all the fun crafts hihi

I love the feeding your chicken in gumboot core 😂weirdly enough I have sweaters that fit the vibe ! I have the same issue with ribbing zig zagging when knit flat, and the bad news is that it doesn't block out... And I don't know how to avoid it, apart from knitting tighter 😅 maybe if you knit the right side continental and the wrong side english style it could help. I haven't tried it though !

[@GardenVarietyKnits]

I'd love to see which sweaters you mean! That is slightly bad news about the ribbing, I feel like I'll try some aggressive blocking techniques before I despair though :)

@@GardenVarietyKnits I'll take an OOTD shot with a #feedingyourchickeningumbootscore one day and tag you in, brace yourself 😂

The cashmere sleeves could become ankle / wrist warmers? It would be very y2k but that's the current trend :shrug: As for evening ribbing I have no idea, I accepted that they are inherently an irregular stitch, and I choose to knit twisted ribbing if I need them to be clean... I have read that you could twist and untwist purls while knitting ribs but I think that's a technique used for larger ribs (like 2x2)

[@GardenVarietyKnits]

Hehe true! Idk if I would ever think to wear them though 😅 Interesting about the ribbing, maybe I'll watch a little. I think this yarn is a little less forgiving too maybe though (I'm telling myself)
