Hello and welcome to the Yarniaks podcast. This is episode number 266, which we are recording on Thursday, March 24th, 2022. I'm Gail. And I'm Charlene. And what you're wearing? I am wearing, or I have

0:25.4

been wearing, my beacon pullover, which is a sweater designed by Shelley Anderson. It is a

0:33.3

batwing pullover designed with skinny ribbed sleeves, a ribbed crewneck, and a ribbed

0:41.9

waistband. So it's a fairly basic style. Shouldn't go out of style too quickly, I'm hoping.

0:51.1

Batwing sleeves are kind of triangular, big sleeves that come out from the whole

1:00.7

side of the sweater. I'm making a triangle with my hands. You guys can't see that, but big triangle

1:58.1

answered me.

1:59.6

So I've been really disappointed and haven't been able to use their yarn again.

2:04.8

Because I don't know what to pick.

2:06.8

It's really hard to try to match colors online.

2:12.1

So customer service matters, you guys.

2:15.0

If anyone can help with color matching on online yarns or know someone who can help me, please let me know.

2:24.7

2:30.5
