Top to bottom: As It Comes, Flipped, Fractal, and Drafted Together (Combo Drafting).

If you have spun your yarn and finished it in your favorite way, it's time to knit.

Yes, yes I know swatching is the worst, but you really can't see what's going on with your yarn until your knit it.

Take a look at my samples. I like to knit mine in a long strip, or connectting squares, so I don't lose them.

If you don't want to knit squares, (mine strip is 30 stitches with 2 on each edge knit in garter) you could do what Joanne of Slatedstitches on Insta is doing, knit four fraternal socks!

Knit your swatches, and look at the different ways that the colors match up or don't. Some you will like more than others; I'm sure there will be one that you are very excited about.

Very few folk's yarns in the Sample Along will match. How the colors line up have to do with the dyes pattern on the fiber, the size of your yarn and the consistancy of your spinning.

I'll walk through my yarns and swatches next week in our Sample Along wrap up.

I hope you are having fun with our Sample Along!
