Welcome to I’ll Knit If I want To! I asked y’all to send in some of your questions (from everything from fiber arts, to designing and on!) so I could put together a little video for y’all every Friday doing my best to answer your questions!
In this week’s episode we cover:
1. Hi Andrea! I am super curious about your spinning. What kind of spinning wheel do you have? What is your "default" spinning yarn (weight, how many plyes, fractal, random?...). Also have you knit things from it? I would love to see what you have made with your handspun yarns. Thanks!

2. Steeking with superwash. I want to make the stonecrop cardi, but I'm worried about steeking with superwash yarn. Love your podcast and look forward to hearing your advice about this!

3. Hi Andrea! I hope you are well. I am wondering what you to do you are trying on a top down sweater as you go. Do you put the stitches on scrap yarn or extra needles to allow for the stretch of trying it on? What do you do? Thanks!
4. In colour work on the yoke at the BOR-where one is changing colours every row -how do you keep the colour change seamless -what method do you recommend-I have tried a few but still see the joining of the new colour and it looks quite unsightly.
5. I’m wondering what tips you have for styling sweaters? I always love to see your outfits of the day?
Bonus question: What is the pattern name for the shawl on the mannequin/dress form behind you in episode 16?
