| 0:00.0 | 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. |
| 0:59.1 | The style of this one is a very exaggerated A-line, and as I remember, I did not make as many |
| 1:07.2 | increases as were written in the pattern. I think that was the same for you when you made it as well |
| 1:14.6 | because it's very exaggerated to be |

| 1:33.0 | with the fewer A-line, because it fits my lifestyle better. So I really like this one. |
| 1:39.4 | I love the fade of this one. Yes. The version that I am wearing now, I made with three different yarns, very high contrast |
| 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 | much we like it. |
| 2:18.0 | Yes, exactly. |
| 2:19.9 | So confetti by Vera Vollimaki. |
