Gelprint cards

All eight of the following cards were made using gelprint. it was my first attempt - very fun. The ink was Distress Oxide; the paper was Neennah Solar white.

Stacked Cowl

 When the pandemic started - or close to the middle beginning of it - Stephanie Pearl McPhee started a Patreon page.  I've never followed anyone on Patreon, but decided to subscribe to  her feed.  It's been a great decision - I've learned lots about knitting.

One of the projects she created for us to knit "along" was a stacked cowl. I'm not going to say much about it - the pattern, etc - because Patreon is a paid site, and I don't want to betray that.  But the yarn I'm using is from River City Yarns in Edmonton, Canada.  It's called Eden.  It's a light worsted (or so it says - I'm not sure it's that heavy.  It is knit in a cowl in a certain way Stephanie teaches that allows the hand-dyed colors to stack.  Mine is the Galilea colorway - lots of blues and greens.  I'm knitting it a small needle - maybe a 5? I'll have to check.

Of course, I made a mistake, and it was too far back to Tink, so I had to take it of the needles to fix it - all while riding on a train, which was fun.

The Project off the needles - scary

The yarn, and the train window
