MORE FAQs!!
- Yes, you have to buy the pattern (unless you already own it), but you do not have to buy the kit.
- Beginner knitters or anyone who has never done mosaic can DEFINTELY do this project. I have a whole video tutorial on mosaic knitting and I will walk you through this pattern specifically during the KAL.
- You do NOT have to be a fast knitter! No one will lose a letter grade for not finishing by the last Zoom session. The Ravelry group will carry on after the end forever, so if you still need help, you can go there for follow ups.
- You absolutely can knit this in something that is not animal fiber. I’ll take a look and find some suitable substitutes for you.
- All the live sessions will be recorded and posted on my channel, so if you miss one, you can watch it later. You can always get support through the Ravelry group or here in the comments, if you’re not on Ravelry.
- EVERYONE will have an opportunity to win prizes, no matter what stage they are at when we wrap up the lives.
Hope to see you in Zoom-land!
Cheers, Nicole
just fyi – the links that show as ending … are broken 🙁
I’m so sorry about the broken links! I’m out of town at the moment, but I’ll attend to fixing them as quickly as I can.
Yes, I’ve noticed this, including the Ravelry forums. In addition, her last podcast notes I can find are 9 months old. I hope she’s ok. Anyone???
Ps, I can’t find her on Ravelry either.
Hello Barbara!
I’m so sorry you were having trouble locating me. I am absolutely fine (you’re so sweet to be concerned) I just get so busy with my YouTube channel, that I don’t check in here all that often and WordPress is terrible about notifying me when I have comments to check. I will make a point of paying better attention to the website!
I have fixed all the links, so you should be able to find what you need now.
Feel free to contact me directly through messages on Ravelry 😀
Is it possible to still purchase kits and have access to the video. I so want to knit a wrap over , like you I HATE trying to style wraps. I love knitting them but never wear them . Guess I was a little late in finding this KAL.
Oh, goodness – WordPress has not been sending me notifications consistently and I completely missed this comment!
Yes, you can still buy the kits and once you’ve done that, you can send me an email to knicoleknitsdesign@gmail.com and I will send you the modification documents and links to the video playbacks 😀
Nicole I recently found you on YTube and have overloaded on watched as many of your videos when possible. I cannot locate the video where you recommended a particular book for beginner netters. I’ve looked through all my history and there’s too many of your videos that I’ve watched to locate it and I should’ve written it down. You went on to recommend two additional books after the initial book you recommended for beginner knitters. Do you recall what those were? PS I love your videos. I love the way you are so real and I love that you drink martinis. Hahaha mine are Up and Dirty with Belvedere vodka though.
Hello Darla!
I’m so so sorry for being so ridiculously slow with this reply. WordPress is simply awful at letting me know when I’ve got comments here.
The books you are asking about are by Sally Mellville: The Knit Stitch, The Purl Stitch, and Color. The series is called The Knitting Experience.
I hope this is helpful!
Cheers, Nicole
