Happy Spinning,

Hi Rachel, thanks for another great episode! I was hoping to find more details about your Vanilla Shawl knit, specifically regarding your bind off, but also regarding the way you did your increases. I hope you don’t mind.
Happy Spinning!
Rachelle
Thank you! The bind off was the same as I described for the Big Leap shawl just prior to showing my vanilla shawl. The increases were make one left and right.
Thanks Rachel. I will listen again and try to figure it out. I am just about to bind off my Age of Brass & Steam Kerchief for the Zero to Hero SPAKAL. :)
If it doesn’t make sense, let me know. I can send you the actual bind off written out. It’s the one from the Swallowtail shawl
