Hello and welcome to the Yarniaks podcast.

This is episode number 291, which we are recording on Friday, March 10th, 2023.

I'm Gail.

And I'm Charlene. And today is my husband's birthday. Oh,

happy birthday, husband. We're here looking for eagles again. So if we go silent, it's because

there was a bald eagle spotting. All right, what are you wearing? Well, what I have been wearing

is my Markley sweater. Markley is a pullover by Elizabeth Doherty that I finished

not so long ago. So I won't say too much about it other than to say I used a smooth fingering

and a fuzzy lace white yarn together, which created a really soft fabric.

I know a lot of people are tired of hearing about that combination because it seems to be

very popular.

And Gail and I have really enjoyed the fuzzy fabric it produces.

And the light lofty fabric, yes.

And I think something about it reminds us of those fuzzy sweaters from the 80s, perhaps.

I will never admit to that.

But Markley is a pull-up I will never admit to that.

But Markley is a pullover.

The nice little feature about it is that somehow the sides angle a little bit so that the side seam angles to the front and it makes the back fit very

nicely I've noticed that my back on that sweater does not flare which is one of

the issues that you and I have both had with pullovers yep so somehow it

contours to the body very nicely and Mark Markly, there are two versions of the pattern.

I did the Markley D.K.
