How to start is the most important I think. Do you have a tutorial about that ?
Unfortunately I don’t, but the beginning is very straight forward.
Bentley approves 😂
So happy to hear that 🥰❤️
So pretty! ❤
Thank you! 😊
Your videos are always so beautiful 💕
Thank you so much, Danielle 🩷🩷🩷
I purchased the pattern and already have the perfect yarn and beads in my stash. I'm excited!
Wonderful! Welcome to the KAL! 🩷
Can record how to knith plaese so I can start
I am not quite sure what you are asking me to record?
I will be joining the KAL! I am setting a reminder for the Zoom Cast-on Party. Knit Circus is sold out, so I am sourcing other gradients now, but I am afraid it will not arrive on time. I will have to check my stash. Chiao Goo is definitely the way to go. As a matter of fact, you patiently talked to me through choosing the right needles for me when I was a beginning knitter. We sat a table in the LYS, and I was able to try a variety of brands and types. I landed on Chiao Goo and have never looked back. Love them! Thank you so much!
So lovely to reconnect with you 🩷 Yes, the gradients from KnitCircus are sold out, but you may consider to “ dye to order”, because this yarn is definitely worth of waiting for. So, my suggestion is to join the KAL with something from your stash, just make sure it is over 400 yards and wait for THE yarn.
Achei lindo. Espero conseguir fazer. ❤❤❤❤
Hi nice to meet you, your work is very good, lovely 🎉❤
I’ll have to start picking colors! 😂
Those flowers are so addictive! I am working 6 different color combinations!
Absolutely magical!!!
Thank you! 🩷
That's a gorgeous shawl!! ❤
Thank you so much 🩷
This project is stunning. I did dragon scales on baby booties. One bootie was larger than the other even though I followed the same stitch count!😂 I'll try to join on zoom on 16th. In case I'm unable to do so, would I have link to watch the cast on? Never done beading, so definitely need to see it.
Yay! Welcome to the Knit-A-Long! Usually I do make a recording of the Cast-On party, so stay tune, but I hope to see you on the 16th via Zoom!
Love the design in the gradient! I’m in for the KAL!
Yes!!! I am in love with the yarn, so beautiful…

Alexandra, will we knitting a gauge swatch for this pattern? I can’t wait to start on Thursday, and will be winding my yarn and placing the beads tomorrow to get ready for Thursday. Thank you.
You don’t have to make a swatch, just make sure that your stitches are fairly tight, not loose. Don’t forget about the Zoom Cast-On party! 💜
I’ll be there,
Thank you for all your tutorials. I cannot wait to start.
Me too! 🩷
I haven't seen anything about the time of the zoom cast on. trying to plan my schedule for thursday. Thx!
You will receive an email tomorrow! 💜
thank you😁 Do you recommend our solid color be yarn b? @@alexandradavidoffstudio2332
I ordered my fade - orchid - so excited!11 Question - can I make it without the beads? Dragon Lore had no beads but you mentioned this pattern 2 has beads but also edited to read easier. Or did I misunderstand?
Oh, absolutely! You can make it without beads, just skip PB stem ( place bead) in the pattern description and continue with the instructions! I am so glad that you joining the Knit-A-Long! 💜
Hi there! So just to clarify, the yellow set only makes 12” and 14” circulars and not 9” correct? I have the red and blue and I really love the variation of sizes you can make. Thank you for the thorough review 😊!
It looks so difficult!
I know, but it’s truly not difficult! There are no short rows 🩷
So excited! I love your video. Thank you so much for doing this! I'm excited to learn this stitch.
Thank you for joining the KAL! 💜
Do you have website for beeds?
Yes I do, here is my favorite www.auracrystals.com/collections/round-6-0

Beautiful hat , thank you
Thank you and happy knitting! 🩷
My fade just arrived last night. Time to prep the yarn.🤓🧶
Yay! Do you have your beads too?
No beads yet. They should be the same color right? Will post soon.
@@amaliarubio3940it should be whatever you when to be, I would suggest to choose beads that would match medium to dark colors of your yarn.
Hi I'm new here hope that you don't mind that I'm a guy I love your video 😊
Welcome and thank you!
Love the Orchid Fade ❤ I’m excited for another KAL-the last one was really fun!
Me too!! Thank you for being part of this KAL 💜
Beauty 🥰👍🏻👏🏻

It would be very helpful if you had a slow motion version
Hello, where can I purchase the PomPom that you used? 😊😊
Morning, I really wanted to do this pattern but I’ve failed many, many times. i.e can’t get passed second row. Tried to get help on here & with friends. Have you a video we could follow? Thanks very much.
How many inches around is the 6 to 12 months size? Thank you, Barbara
Thank you for your question, Barbara. It is 13” unstructured.
So pretty!
Thank you Danielle 💗

Congratulation!!!!

Is there a previous video to this one, where shows from beginning of stitch?
I don’t have a video of the stitch itself, but it’s a good idea! I may work on it.
