A Contest: Guess What Project 3 Will Be for A Year of Techniques!
I am going to guess socks. Haven’t been a member even a year but I don’t remember anyone talking about socks. I don’t think it’s a toy or a tea cosy. There’s too much yarn so maybe even socks are too small… Just ordering my zauberball along with this next project. Have The Rain Outside on my need...

Technique Number 9: Cables
Oh, Jen, if you look at my Yellow Wagtail Scarf, it is a study in imperfection–cables going the wrong way, one cable just Not There! A Year of Techniques has been invaluable to me for learning new things this year. Thank you for everything! x0xx0x0x0x
Technique Number 2: Intarsia
Doing intarsia even though I have studiously avoided it for decades is part of the fun. This year of techniques let’s me branch out in ways I might not independently consider, do things I might not use, discover things I may love and didn’t even know about, and...

Technique Number 5: Heel Turn
A few years ago, I taught myself to knit socks, and at the same time learned the magic loop method. The 1st circular needle cord was stiff and required constant wrestling, but I’ve treated myself to new needles and found a couple brands that I like. My favorite, at the moment, is Knitter’s Pride ...

Technique Number 1: Helical Stripes
...needles with each color, dropping one and picking up the other. This is explained in the Helical Stripes, Using Double-Pointed Needles section of the Year of Techniques instructions; it’s on page 3. It seems counter-intuitive. But imagine your four needles as a square, with needle 1 at the bottom. You’ve knit your ro...
Technique Number 10: Afterthought Heel
The designer of the Hedera Helix Socks, James Arnall-Culliford, writes: “Afterthought heels struck me as brilliantly clever the first time I came across them. There are so many options at a knitter’s disposal in terms of how you do the decreases, the yarn you use and so on. Furthermore, as someon...
Technique Number 6: Provisional Cast On
Gosh, sorry I missed this conversation - things have been super-busy here with shipping books and all the rest of it. :anguished: I see that @nellknits has got you up and running again… When I unzip my crochet cast on, the tail at the end of the waste yarn is caught where the main yarn moves up t...

Technique No. 8: Garter Stitch Short Rows!
Had to knit an Emergency Hat while I was at EYF as I hadn’t brought one. This is my effort in Scrumptious Teal colourway. Very cosy! It may be a hat Christmas in my house as I could knit several more of these just for the sheer fun of it. image
