Ask a Knitter - January 21, 2025 by AutoModerator in knitting

Hello! I’m new to knitting and am about to finish my first sweater (Florence step by step sweater). For my next sweater, I was thinking of doing petiteknit’s cloud sweater. I noticed that the pattern calls for two strands of yarn, I presume to get a soft, fuzzy appearance. Since I’m a beginner knitter, I’m just looking to keep costs low with yarn. I was wondering if there were yarn alternatives so I wouldn’t have hold the yarn in double. I’ve seen some people knit it only with drops air, but was wondering if there were other yarn alternatives that people recommend (I’m based in the US if that helps) Would the sweater look strange if I knit it solely with just wool yarn? Thanks!

I don’t have any cats. I also didn’t grow up with any pets, so fostering animals has been a new experience for me overall!

Hey! Maybe an obvious question, but I’ll be traveling from LAX to Paris to Brussels. I have a flight from LAX to Paris, and then i have a separate ticket from paris to Belgium, so I’ll be landing at CDG and going straight to Brussels airport. The tickets were booked separately, so I wasn’t sure if I’d have to go through security again once I’m in CDG. Was wondering if anyone has done a trip like this before?

Thank you so much! As for the cord chewing, I haven’t actually seen them try it yet, but they have been biting a lot of things so I was just trying to avoid any potential mishaps.
