Love how this is coming along! 😍
(Also really love your alt text, it’s descriptive enough to imagine the photo without seeing it, but also not overly wordy)

Thank you for that info! I’ll keep her patterns at the back of my mind until I feel like my brain might be able to finally try one 😄
(I can hardly even count these days 🙈)

Wow gorgeous purple!
I keep coming back to the Etsy page for these knitted animal patterns (there were some adorable Frog and Toad stop motion reels on insta) - but I haven’t taken the plunge to buy one yet… What level of difficulty would you estimate the ones you’ve made?

Definitely going to try it too!
(And then when I’m done for the evening I can place it tidily on top of the pile of junk I don’t know where to put 😆)

Great idea!
I’m chaotic with my yarn - I saw someone organizing their yarns for color work like this, but it didn’t even occur to me that it could be useful for two strands held together 😅

How big is the blanket? If you don’t want to cut it up too much, you could try a one-seam bog coat

Hand sewing is awesome! 😎

It is so fun! And I’m feeling very inspired, the hardest part will be deciding what to make first!
And my husband has requested a short sleeved shirt after seeing some photos from the book 🤩 (he never asks for anything)

Will report back once I’ve read more of it! I’m liking it a lot so far.
Not sure yet what project to try first, quite a few have caught my eye… Hoping to use one of my fun wax fabrics

It definitely is!
Not sure where you’re based, in France it’s available in bookshops on or offline. Outside of France, I guess Amazon or maybe ebook stores?

Haha I really am, I’ve knit a few different garments but always a simple, minimalist style (aka stockinette and ribbing 😆).
At least these days I can fix most of my mistakes!

Ok, I’ll have to look at a YouTube video to get over my fear! And maybe find a simple project to try
