DMs off.
My tummy has had a “genteel sufficiency” of yummy treats thanks to my daughter. So my knitting has been at a mellow pace. I always like the 2nd sock on a new to me pattern better. Like 1st one is practice.

A list of all the professions declared not pressing any longer. From @dinalynee This is an attack on women. It’s shortsighted and will collapse our healthcare system.

Returned to WIPs after a test knit. Taken late at night in poor light but raining today. Not blocked yet. # 2 to go. But I am tickled about this Sz Lg knit sock. 🧦 Foot took much longer. #knitsky
#justknitting 🧶 Cozy & cute.

OMG! Look what I was knitting while watching Ken Burns last night. Twinning.

I have a habit of folding my ribbing up as it would be worn in a finished hat once I get to the body section. Making a Yellow Peace Hat for a giveaway while watching Ken Burns “American Revolution.” Free pattern in ALT

#FOFriday 🧶 Blocking. It’s a challenge to block this time of year. It’s the secondly day and it might need a third with shorter days and weaker sunshine. Can’t wait to try on my new Scarflette Deets in Alt.

#Showmetoutknits What’s on your needles? I finished my test knit and I hope to have it blocked and photos taken in 2-3 days. Today I’m as fall turns to muted stick season I’m enjoying knitting a happy yellow. Making the Peace Hat to give away to someone who needs it.

The green is on my active needles for a test knit coming soon. The socks became lingering WIPs as I worked through two test knits. They don’t qualify for the naughty basket yet. Still determined to finish them.

I’ve got to watch how I tension w fingering weight yarn. I had to quit early last night bec it had sawed a small wound into my finger. Obvi not major but I didn’t want to get blood on my yarn. Trying to continue with a hold closer to my middle joint.

#Showmeyourknits It’s cable week. I’ve shown these recently as I was knitting them, but since the Spare Rib Socks were released on Rav today it seemed appropriate. Mine are a bit thick in DK which my feet love but see the projects in sport weight. They are so graceful. #justknitting 🧶

I always say, “🐸 as soon as you realize there’s a mistake you can’t fix or identify.” I always say I’m ruthless about it. But it has taken me longer than anticipated to #knit this far and I have a due date. But the evidence is clear. 😩 This time it IS bugging me. 🧶

#knitsky 🧶 Staus report. I think this is 120 rows. Another day of waiting on repaid and maintenance and getting interrupted as soon as I start. Life vs 🧶

Slow progress. Need > knitting time for this small gauge scarflette. Life has been getting in the way. Pic 1- 75 rows. Pic 2- 92 rows. Also when weighing my skein it was about 8gm short, so I am going to have to make it shorter. We’ll see if I get a scarf or a cravat.

23 rows. I sigh and ask Skully if this really will become a scarf. He assures me it will. I hold onto the doubt of every start of a small gauge project. Skully also chides me I’ve been using size 2 needles exclusively for 2 months solid so I should be used to this by now.
