I have to dig them out. I do have a couple of books just on fair isle. It's time to get those out too. I was practicing over and over last night. I think I can pick the yarn and make a new loop smoothly now. But the whole process is still awkward.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14868525167609623756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15563167.post-1144050279295366212006-04-03T00:44:00.000-07:002006-04-03T00:44:00.000-07:00Jason, there is a video I have seen of Alice Starm...Jason, there is a video I have seen of Alice Starmore teaching the yarn in two hands technique. You may be able to find it. It seems very akward at first, but it soon feels quite natural.<BR/><BR/>KerryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15563167.post-1144030073595104122006-04-02T19:07:00.000-07:002006-04-02T19:07:00.000-07:00Hey Agnes!

Will you be writting a pattern for this? :-)<BR/><BR/><B>Gerald,</B> Origami is in Vogue Knitting On The Go, Baby Knits Two. The Fair Isle class was interesting. The teacher was late so we lost some time there. It was quite frustrating since I only knit English style. Kathy had all of us hold the yarns in two hands. So we all had to learn Fair Isle PLUS Continental Knitting. The knitting was so tight and I am still not completely sure how to carry the yarn. But experience was great. I feel very excited to start something. Maybe a hat?<BR/><BR/>Oh, for the afghan I got 53 balls of KnitPicks' Wool of the Andes. 16 each of the light colors, 7 each of the dark colors, 7 of the contrast color for assembling the squares together.<BR/><BR/><B>Kerry,</B> I may have to slow down on the afghan to do the baby stuff. Want to finish them before they get too big. :-)Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14868525167609623756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15563167.post-1144016061566614462006-04-02T15:14:00.000-07:002006-04-02T15:14:00.000-07:00Your square looks great, I've never seen diagonal ...Your square looks great, I've never seen diagonal ribbing.

Where did you find that pattern? <BR/><BR/>I've picked up my LTKA book and have been reading it. Have you learned to knit continental? That's how I learned to knit, so I'm skimming the instructions. The ideal of the afghan is great...I'm considering the yarn to use. How much yarn did you get to make the afghan? <BR/><BR/>Oh, how was your Fair Isle class?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15563167.post-1144004849762619402006-04-02T12:07:00.000-07:002006-04-02T12:07:00.000-07:00Wow you're fast!
