#showmeyourknits is asking for WIPs this week. I have these two going plus the halo t-shirt (Drops) that's been on the back burner for a while. The grey and black wool are slippers from yarnspiration. The stripes are the back of the "diamonds for him" vest.

My recent experiment: 2 sticks and 2 beads. Both work. Neither works well. The one on the left is better, especially when used supported. They need heavier whorls.
The wool is some I dyed last fall (black walnut) and some scraps I carded (burgundy) and added in to see what happens.

I started knitting before the PC was much of a thing, so no photos of my first projects.
I'm posting my first knitted projects for my home. I made some dish cloths from hemp yarn - playing with ideas, so no pattern available.

I won yarn chicken! (4-5")
This buttoned cowl (www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...) is made with yarn that I #handdyed and #handspun . It's cable plied from 4 singles, all done on a drop spindle. ~100g.
The wool was dyed using pokeweed berries in a basic solution, which is why it's an unusual color.

#showmeyourknits is knitter's choice this week. I really like how my version of the Connecticut River Scarf came out. I love the sweaters that I finished, too. The sweaters are both vintage lopi patterns.

The USAF reportedly shot down an aircraft over Venezuela. Reports state that it was powered by "multiple antlered propulsion units". DOD says the aircraft was operating without a transponder or flight plan and carrying a large quantity of suspicious packages while engaged in "seasonal trafficking".

Love is a tide that learns your name.
Returns each time, never the same.
It burns, it heals, it pulls, it stays.
A quiet fire through the loudest days.
When night falls hard and doubts run deep.
Love stands watch while the world is asleep.

A cardigan I made a few years ago.I think it's cotton, but I don't remember the yarn or pattern.

This is a very fun new pattern. I've been knitting the scarf, which feels like it's just flying off my needles.
It's garter stitch lace, so it feels fancy but has no purls.
Mine is the sample made in Mile Wide Crafts hand dyed cotton boucle. (gift 🤫)

It's the off season for us, but we're still working hard. I've put up a new blog post - the first in quite a while - with a free pattern for the new scarf and shawl. This is a quick knit if you need a gift sooner than expected.
If you need yarn, LMK.

Holiday knits: I have a recent snowflake project and one in snow and ice colors. Both have been shown here before. On a day like today, the grey socks seem to be more fitting, though.

This is a podcast and an interviewee who I think are worthy of promotion, if you don't already know about them.
Hope you are having a good day today and continue to mend.

This one ticks both boxes for #indiedyedyarn and indie designer in this week's #showmeyourknits theme. The yarn is fingering weight organic cotton dyed by @mile-wide-crafts.bsky.social and the pattern is not yet released but is also an indie pattern.

Finished! It's a bit bigger than I had thought and may require some elastic to make it more wearable.

Slow progress on the diamond ear warmer (pattern by Sunny Link). I'm knitting both sides (inside and outside) together, so it takes a little longer. For some reason this pattern is requiring far more concentration than I expected.

Another of my current WIPs: the diamond ear warmer by Sunny Links. I'm knitting it double, though, using two leftover colors of Bernat Lattice yarn. It's slow going because the pattern wasn't written for double knitting, so I have to concentrate. I'm enjoying the challenge.
