Episode 372 - Knits in 10 Hours or Less

It’s the perfect time of year for quick knits, and we were so delighted to feature several patterns from George of 10 Hours or Less in our latest stash-buster pattern collection, Déjà Yarn. You can probably guess what kind of patterns George specializes in (ones that take less than 10 hours to make), but you’ll be amazed to hear about his long career in the knitting industry that predates digital patterns. George also shares a glimpse inside his design process as he explains how he created his Art Deco Artisan Headband and Rolling Ribbing Hat for Déjà Yarn.   Plus, Lee, Stacey, and Andi chat about their current projects, the Axiom KAL, and knitting while watching movies or reading.    00:02 Welcome to the Knit Picks Podcast. 00:46 Lee and Stacey share what they’ve been up to. 06:50 Andi joins Stacey to chat about Axiom. 13:20 Stacey and Lee talk more in depth about Déjà Yarn. 20:05 Lee and Stacey and joined by George from 10 Hours or Less who shares his background. 30:47 George shares his process for his two patterns in Déjà Yarn. 42:27 Stacey and George give some hints about a future 12 Weeks of Gifting pattern! 43:17 George is a big part of the Indie Design Gift Along and provides more information about how to participate. 53:55 George shares where else to find him and his 10 Hours of Less patterns.  55:13 Credits   Swish Pops yarn https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/swish-pops/c/5420478?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Lee's Swish Pops cardigan project (ravelry link) https://www.ravelry.com/projects/leethal/cropped-cardi Hawthorne DK https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/hawthorne-dk/c/5420481?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Lee's Movie Theatre Sweater (ravelry link) https://www.ravelry.com/projects/leethal/theya-pullover Axiom Sweater pattern https://www.knitpicks.com/axiom-sweater/p/52918D?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Axiom knit-along https://blog.knitpicks.com/tag/axiom-kal/?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Axiom progress so far https://www.instagram.com/p/CyOYAWsMCW8/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== How to Convert a Seamed Sweater to Seamless https://blog.knitpicks.com/how-to-convert-a-seamed-sweater-to-seamless/?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Knitting & Reading At The Same Time blogpost https://blog.knitpicks.com/knitting-reading-at-the-same-time/?utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Deja Yarn: Single Color Stashbusters https://www.knitpicks.com/sale/deja-yarn-single-color-stashbusters/c/302139?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Prerogative Cowl https://www.knitpicks.com/prerogative-cowl/p/54214D?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Holil Yeoh patterns: https://www.knitpicks.com/patterns/holli-yeoh/c/30026807?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Wonderfluff Ombre https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/wonderfluff-ombr/c/5420427?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Urwen Cowl https://www.knitpicks.com/urwen-cowl/p/54210D?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Claire Slade patterns https://www.knitpicks.com/patterns/claire-slade/c/30026803?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Heatherly Worsted https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/heatherly-worsted/c/5420451?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 High Desert Worsted https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/high-desert-worsted/c/5420425?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Weekend Lounging Socks https://www.knitpicks.com/weekend-lounging-socks/p/54215D?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Art Deco Artisan Headband https://www.knitpicks.com/art-deco-artisan-headband/p/54213D?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Rolling Ribbing Hat https://www.knitpicks.com/rolling-ribbing-hat/p/54212D?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Swish Worsted https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/swish-worsted/c/5420153?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Swish DK https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/swish-dk/c/5420168?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 12 Weeks of Gifting 2023 patterns https://www.knitpicks.com/patterns/12-weeks-of-gifting-2023/c/300202?&utm_source=libsyn&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=episode372 Indie Design Gift-A-Long (Ravelry link) https://www.ravelry.com/groups/indie-design-gift-a-long 10 Hours or Less user profile (Ravelry link) https://www.ravelry.com/people/10HoursorLess 10 hours or Less patterns on Ravelry (ravelry link) https://www.ravelry.com/designers/10-hours-or-less 10 Hours or Less patterns on Lovecrafts https://www.lovecrafts.com/en-us/user/maker/459f818e-d58a-442b-8e15-8dead451fdab 10 Hours or Less on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/10hoursorless/
