Hello and welcome to the Yarniaks podcast.

0:11.6

This is episode number 368, which we are recording on Tuesday, February 17, 2006.

0:19.5

I'm Gail.

0:20.2

And I'm Charlene. What are you wearing today? And I realized I was looking at the wrong

0:25.5

episode show notes. Oopsies. You caught it before we started talking. When you said the date, it's like,

0:32.0

whoops. Okay. We are podcasting pros. Yes, we are. So one of the sweaters I have been wearing, and I'm actually wearing right now, is the second confetti pullover or jumper that I made back in 2017.

0:48.3

Confetti is a pattern by Vera Vallimaki that is an A-line raglan-sleeved, very, very basic pullover sweater.

1:51.0

that I attempted to fade together, but they are very high contrast.

1:56.0

So you can pretty much see it's almost like a color block.

2:00.0

And if I did it again, I always think I want to make

2:05.4

this sweater again because it's so wearable. And if I did it again, I would probably do a low

2:11.7

contrast fade just for something different. Well, we both have knit it twice, so that shows how

2:17.3

So confetti by Vera Vollimaki.
