Your Artus shawl is beautiful! New to me podcast: Kutovakika.

[@TrudySchwartzBurrill]

The shape of the shawl is standard. Your edge on the Joji shawl is a little tight if it’s an i-cord. The curl shape is correct and the desired shape and curl for that shape of a shawl.

[@MakingItwithDee]

Incredible shawl!! 🤩😍

[@coleensmith3544]

Love your Artus shawl

[@haleynh]

I’d love to see a spring capsule wardrobe/styling video!

[@JulieMcCullough-t8g]

Can I ask a silly question.? Fairly new knitter and I am starting the mosaic chart on the Artus shawl. I am beginning the second row and starting left to right and I have knitted the three end stitches that aren’t on chart, and it states to make one first then slip next and there is white stitch there not grey due to end of first row you make one. I am so confused

[@Knitweekend]

Hi! When you say Second Row, do you mean second Row of the Chart (RS) or second row of the mosaic (WS). Basically you’ll work Row 1 L to R on the RS then work it again in the other direction for the WS.

[@pacrossett]

You have an Ashford espinner on your shelf?! I just found you. Do you do spinning on this podcast?

[@Knitweekend]

Yes! I’m only just learning. I usually chat about this at the end of the episode. But I’ll have a little hand-spinning special episode in two weeks!

[@KnitandGrace]

Shots, shots, shots! 😂 Loved spending some time with you this morning Hailey! Your Artus is stunning and reminding me that I should probably unpack mine so that I can start knitting on it again. Worked on splitting for sleeves on my next spring knit which is the Slightly Sassy V by Aimee Sher. Talk soon! ❤ Mia

[@grandiane5569]

What is the blanket on your chair? Looked on your ravelry but didn't see it

[@Knitweekend]

Hi! Do you mean the black, blue and gold pattern? If so, this is actually just the upholstery on the chair itself.

[@mikelafiddle]

You can also spin a bit of your unspun yarn to do a sewn bind off 😍

[@Knitweekend]

Funny you say that… I suggested a forever that, but I never asked her how it went. I should!

[@opencirclestitches]

we're all guilty of wishful knitting gone wrong 😿

[@Knitweekend]

It’s part of it, I suppose! Even if it stings a little bit each time…

[@jaanapeterson402]

A spring capsule wardrobe video would be great! Looking forward to it!

[@allysonbrownmarcolini514]

I used the Lichen and Lace rustic Heather sport for the Lunenburg sweater. The stockinette portion looks perfect, no problems at all. Just for everyone to know. Your shawl is gorgeous and the cokour choices are fabulous!

[@Knitweekend]

This is great to know!! I’ll try to remember to mention this next time. This yarn made my heart go pitter pat, so I’m glad to hear it!!

[@jo-annefalconer6280]

the Amren shawl will curve round your neck beautifully when it's finished. I have knit a number of shawls this design and you might need a break from it and when you come back it will make sense to your brain.

[@Knitweekend]

Okay. I will not frog it just yet!

[@KnitDesserts]

oh my, future you is going to be so happy to receive that Artus shawl! I almost feel like I need to make one just because the name makes me think of "Artie Shaw" every time! Also, yay thanks for featuring my picture in the lonely skeins projects!

[@Knitweekend]

Thanks so much for joining the fun over on the hashtag!!

[@rosellajohnson40]

I think the shawl that you're thinking about Frogging is supposed to be "crescent" shaped.

[@Knitweekend]

I’m not much of a shawl knitter and I think I’ve only knit triangle shawls now that you mention it. Do you like crescent shaped shawls?

[@audreyburton685]

You are just the cutest young lady, and an absolute delight to watch!! Your personality is bubbly and endearing and your knitting is excellent!

[@Knitweekend]

Thank you for watching, Audrey. Hope you’ll join me again.

[@lucilesenseney5556]

Knitting with a group is a real treasure...lots of laughter, sharing ideas, tips, patterns, and yarn choices. We are also avid readers..so, lots of book talk. Your shawl colors are gorgeous.

[@Knitweekend]

Hi Lucile!! Yes, I was so glad I finally went after ‘planning to’ for two years!! It felt like a very special space. I’m glad to hear you gave a treasured group of friends to knit with too!

[@MrsKWheatley]

Your Artus shawl is stunning, the colours are singing together so beautifully. Such a good idea to box it up as an Autumn treat x

[@Knitweekend]

Thank you!! Yes, the unboxing will be so fun!!

[@QueensYarnBoutique]

Love your Nova Scarf and Artus Shawl! 🧶

[@Knitweekend]

Thank you!!! They were both really fun projects.

[@rosellajohnson40]

The Amren shawl by Joji

[@Knitweekend]

Yes that’s the one!

[@rosellajohnson40]

Yes. I've knitted a couple. They're kind of worn like a scarf/light weight cowl.

[@donnarossignol5695]

Your shawl is absolutely stunning. Amazing colours .

[@Knitweekend]

Thank you so much, Donna! I’m really pleased with it.

[@despinavassos7865]

Your Artus shawl is gorgeous. Did I hear you correctly that there is color work where the triangles are? Not mosaic knitting? The reason I am asking is I could really tell when reading some of the project pages.

[@Knitweekend]

Ahhhh… sorry for any confusion. The triangles are mosaic. There are stranded colorwork rows in between the waffle texture sections.

[@despinavassos7865]

@@Knitweekend okay, thank you ❤️

[@phyllisburke4141]

I love the shawls.

[@phyllisburke4141]

Any knitting project or yarn not bringing you joy is ok to let go. I do it without any guilt.

[@Knitweekend]

I agree!! And I think I found a replacement project this morning for this yarn.

[@Alaskaventureswithbrodie]

Always look forward to seeing your knits! ❤

[@Knitweekend]

Thank you so much, Stacy!!!

[@handcraftswithnadine]

Those colours on your shawl will be so stunning on you!

[@Knitweekend]

Thanks!! I doubted my original choices but I think I was right the first time!
