I’m knitting, sewing, sleeping, feeling constant existential dread
I’m finally on the finishing touches of my rabbit cardigan, I just need to attach the buttons. I was so sure I needed to buy buttons but it turns out I had more buttons in my stash then I thought… #knitting

The yarn, the inspiration, and the pattern. I can’t wait to start this project but I have 2/3 of a different cardigan on my needles right now plus the cold arrived and all our half mittens need replacing 🥲 #knitting #knittingproblems

Every step of this cardigan has been a learning process, but the majority of the learning is “plan your bloody work before you start even when you don’t feel like it”. But tbh sometimes I just need to begin somewhere, or I will just never start at all! #knitting

Vaguely wishing I could have a job making tiny wool sweaters 🐑 (this is a gift for J’s nephew) #knitting

I finished the Una sweater and it turned out better than I expected considering how long it’s been in the unfinished-pile. The construction is so neat! #knitting

Another day another UFO to finish. I started this with leftover yarn gifted to me by a friends mum, the yarn ran out and since it’s discontinued I bought some “similar but not the same”-yarn to finish the ribbing with. I don’t love it but I ran out of options and don’t want to frog.

First up in my UFO project is the Seaside tee by Coco Amour knits. I finished the shoulders down to the sleeve parting sometime in the summer but I guess I got bored/distracted. It’s finally done! #knitting

But I do usually finish things. Here is my latest, a Grettír for my sister in law #knitting

My spring project is to deal with my overabundance of unfinished projects. The biggest difficulty will be to determine wether to finish or frog, but at least three of these just need buttons sewn on 🤦🏼‍♀️

I am missing exactly one ball of yarn to be able to finish this San sweater, and I feel ridiculous ordering a single ball of yarn (it’s not available locally) but I also don’t want to order anything else because I’m trying to finish UFOs… just #knittingproblems

I don’t have strong feelings about bottom-up versus top-down sweaters, but there’s just something less satisfying about knitting from bottom up in pieces like this. Until you get to the yoke and suddenly there’s a whole ass sweater.
