Scrappy Olga Sweater Finished! | Knitting Podcast, WIPs & Granny Stripe Shawl CAL

Welcome to another episode of my knitting podcast! In this episode I’m sharing my finished scrappy Olga sweater, several knitting works in progress, and announcing a new Granny Stripe Shawl Crochet-Along. My finished object for this episode is a scrappy version of the Olga sweater, knit using leftover yarn. I couldn’t find many scrappy Olga sweaters on Ravelry, so it was really fun to experiment with a striped, stash-busting version of this beautiful sweater pattern. I’m also sharing three knitting works in progress: • An Italian Bandana, a small scarf project • My Smokeshow Vest • A pair of DK weight socks I’m knitting for my husband’s birthday I’m also announcing a Granny Stripe Shawl Crochet-Along to support Moran from Crochet Objet. Her home in Israel was recently damaged during the war, and I wanted to bring our yarn community together to support her by making one of her patterns. If you’d like to join the crochet-along: 🧶 Purchase the Granny Stripe Shawl pattern by Crochet Objet Ravelry Link: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/libr... 🧶 Share your progress on Instagram using #alygrannystripeshawlcal 🧶 Or post your project in the crochet-along thread in my Ravelry group Forum Link: https://www.ravelry.com/discuss/a-lov...
