Episode 7 Brownies and knitting updates
This episode is dedicated to our father, Bill Klein, who passed away 26 years ago on February 12. We still miss you every day, and we wouldn't mind if you ate all of the brownies and chocolate chips and cloves and science projects.

Bossy Knits
Bossy's swatch for the Arpeggio Shawl by Martha Wissing she's knitting. Bossy is modifying the pattern so that it's a poncho instead of a shawl. She's using Valley Yarns (Webs' brand) Westfield in Graphite, Natural and Persimmon. She's knitting with size 6 Addi Rocket squared needles from Webs.
Bootie Knits
Bootie is making progress on her Brezel sweater by Marie Greene and phew! it's not ginormous. Bootie is not sure she should feel too excited by that, but she'll take it! The yarn is Purl Soho Good Wool in Blue Moon. She is using her Chiaogoo Forte needles in size 5 for the body
Here is a video from Olive Knits for cabling without a cable needle when doing right leaning cables.
​
Here's a video tutorial for the left leaning cables! This video is by Andrea Mowry, She's awesome and Bootie has knit many of her patterns. The left leaning cable part starts at around minute 2.20.
A little bit of progress on Bootie's Musselburgh hat by Ysolda Teague.
She's using Uneek sock yarn (colorway number 53) and Chiaogoo minis on size 2 needles.
And whatever you do, don’t knit like my sister!
