Welcome to the Very Pink Nits podcast, the companion podcast to a very pink Nits YouTube channel.

I'm Stacey and I'm here with Polly.

Hi, friends.

If you would like to get your knitting question on the show, just email it to podcast at

very pink.com and please tell us where you're from.

And if you're enjoying the ad-free show, please consider supporting it.

You can go to patreon.com slash very pink nits for more information, and I will put a link in the show notes.

And our yarn patron, as always, is Turtle Pearl.

Turtle Pearl makes identical twins self-striping sock yarns.

We always have a coupon code.

It happens to be for 15% off right now.

So in the show notes, you will get the coupon

code as well as a link to Turtle Pearl. Yes. How are you doing, Polly? I'm doing well. I finished

my brother's sweater. You finished your brother's sweater. You cranked that out. I knit it in a month.

Nice. Okay, actually, that's not that fast. No. I don't think so. But you have other things, like you have a family, you do homeschooling, you have a family. Yeah. If you had nothing else to... My life hasn't fallen apart. You've been doing other things too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I have to thank you for recommending that I actually measure him for

length. Because if I had just added two inches to the body of my sweater, it would have been like

cropped on him. Oh, okay. I'm glad that worked out for you. Longer torso, longer arms. And I'm glad I didn't

have to rip out a cuff and bind off.

You're done with it, but he hasn't tried it on because this is a Christmas present, right?

No, that's not right. So here's the thing. Okay. I really, really despise ripping out a bind

off and adding an inch of length or whatever. Nobody loves that, Polly. Nobody loves that.

It makes me sad.
