New #kiddiwinksknits pattern of the week: the Islander. Dilys has knitted two, but the second one (such a gorgeous rust colour) was put in the tumble dryer by her son-in-law and is "now a mat". 😭 Islander #3 is on the way... #knitsky #knitting

Why not join two strands of the same colour together and make a new ball, bit of a bore but at least you only have 3 balls to work with rather than 6... good luck!

Looks great. So did you sew down the folded ribbing afterwards or at the same time as casting off?

For #ShowMeYourKnits hat week here is a simple one I knitted using @woollywormhead.bsky.social 'Dylan's Beanie' pattern. Her patterns are great, this free one shows you how to start from the top down which makes fitting more of a success. Recommended. www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

The only problem with the Xanadu tank top for adults is choosing a colour combination 😉 so here are some projects for the little ones for inspiration 😍 #knitsky #knitting

Thank you! It's really about the construction: I always do top down but I then found out you can start at the toe, do different things with the heel etc etc. There's lots of inspiration out there! Good luck with #4 :-)

#ShowMeYourKnits is all about socks this week. I have knitted many pairs, often with hand dyed yarn, for myself, friends and family. I always use the same method, I need to be a bit more adventurous next time and try something new! #knitsky #knitting
