73: Mosaic Knitting
We're talking about mosaic knitting, one of the more obscure--and more intuitive--colorwork techniques. This week's letter is about adjusting for surprise gauge changes while knitting socks.
We'll be live on YouTube on June 6 at 6pm EST! Click here or go to makegoodpod.com/youtube.
This week's episode is all about mosaic knitting! In our Dear Scratch letter, we talk about what to do if your gauge is way off only on one particular type of project.
