Ooh, that’s super cute but I have SO many hats, I’m thinking I might try to incorporate it into a cowl or even as an accent color in a yolk. Thank you for the suggestion though!
#3. A stomach bug! 🥲 #4. One skein of chunky yarn from Feederbrook Farms that I think is absolutely gorgeous but have no idea what do do with it. #5. Some trout buttons from Haulin Hoof Farms #6. A drop spindle and some roving! #knitsky #showmeyourknits 🧶
Super helpful, thanks for sending this along!
#2. Seven skeins of local, hand-dyed DK weight yarn from Sanctuary Fibers for a Willow Pullover by Andrea Gaughan. (My first bottom up sweater!) 🧶 #knitsky #showmeyourknits
AND NOW, A WOOLEN AFFAIR/RHINEBECK HAUL. ✨ #1. Seven Skeins of Undyed Confetti Worsted from Sew Happy Jane for Maria Schei Mogenstad’s Naomi Jacket and some “Floral Darling” buttons from Haulin’ Hoof Farm. #knitsky 🧶
That makes sense! I made the mistake of knitting this with a super wash before learning that super wash loses its elasticity after blocking, so I had to reinforce my collar with elastic. Part of the learning process! Also learned a lot about grist. 😅🩵
Thank you! 🥹🩵💫
Happy Rhinebeck Weekend everyone! The Bloom Pullover was completed last Sunday and I was able to wear it all day yesterday. 🌸🧶So proud of my first colorwork and I can’t wait to show off my haul from yesterday and A Woolyn Affair! #showmeyourknits #knitsky
We love a matching set! 🩵🤣
It’s looking beautiful! I promise it’ll get easier and you’ll know the pattern by heart in no time. Mine lives at my office and is so cozy, I get a ton of compliments on it too.
My friend Alana has designed the cutest Butter Socks! 🧈🧦 🧶 Can’t wait to knit some up! www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... #knitsky #showmeyourknits
Ooh three quarter is super chic!! I’d say go for it.
Ugh! I feel you. It looks really lovely though!
So I just checked and it’s actually not a 9in cord I think it might be 10” or 12” (sorry it’s hard to measure with the stitches on it haha!) but my shorties are 3.5” too so inevitably I’ll be in your boat as I continue to decrease hah!
Currently I’ve got the sleeve on shorties and a 9” cord, inevitably I’ll probably have to move over magic loop since I don’t have DPNs in this size! Thank you!! 🩵🧶
#wipwednesday Getting the sleeves done before Rhinebeck! I was able to get some elastic to reinforce the collar too. 🧶 #knitsky #showmeyourknits
I’ve heard that applies to skiing too! 🤣🧶
Next, I got some Jamieson’s to make a Porty Cardigan for a friend expecting a little girl early next year! It’ll be my first time steeking! #showmeyourknits #knitsky 🧶
This weekend was the NYC Yarn Crawl and I want to show off my acquisitions! First is Blue Sky Fibers Skyland in the color Comet for Meeshyfrazz’ Anacortes Pullover! #knitsky 🧶 #showmeyourknits
Never a bother when it comes to Miffy!!!
