I screamed in delight when you guys started talking about your wonderful Emotional Support Chickens! Knitting Tree LA is my LYS (hi Annette!) the place is absolutely worthy of your love and enthusiasm! If you’re ever in Los Angeles, please look them up! Also, Ray, as a fellow color-blind knitter, I completely understand your love of a kit! Kits are wonderful!

You guys are so much fun❤️ Ray, I love your Fayston Shoulder Cozy. Just a thought, we make similar items called Shrug Hugs for our charity which are simply 20” x 60” panels. We use super bulky yarn so when worn they sit around your shoulders like a mini weighted wrap. Volunteers just send us the 20 x 60 panels and we lace them closed before shipping but you can easily seam or put some buttons as closures when making for yourself. Any pattern or weight yarn can be used - just be sure to choose a pattern that when worn it won’t be upside down when you wear it. Super easy without seams. Or if you have a pattern that would be upside down on one front panel, made 2 panels, rotate one and seam down the back. Hope this idea is helpful😊 Thanks again for all you do creating this fun community. I really enjoy being part of it❤️

Thanks for another fun episode. The reason I like a kit is it helps me when I'm learning something new. I am not always sure of how different yarns work with different patterns. A kit allows me to knit a sweater pattern with the yarn that is recommended so it has a better chance of working out. Then I can be more adventurous. I loved the emotional support chicken, and I really liked the shoulder cozy...Thanks again. Did I mention I love kits.
