Been knitting with pencil roving lately, but Embla wants to use it as a pillow. As if it wasn't difficult enough to use this yarn as is. 😄

Oh my!! The comment section!! 😂 I love us knitters!

To quote one of them: "I felt delighted and slighted at the same time."

I have discovered a new hobby - this only happens, like, once a decade!

I haven't been this sucked into something since I first discovered stranded colourwork knitting.

Before you begin your next 🧶 project, be sure to set yourself up for success:

1 Print your pattern & mark your size.
2 Ensure you have enough yarn. Get more if need be.
3 Practice frowning at those who ask you to "knit me a jumper"
4 Dig holes in your garden for the bodies of those who keep asking.

Don't get a mini schnauzer if you don't want this while you knit.🥰

Hiii! It's so nice to see you all here. That I'm not the only one who's fed up with Meta deciding what we do and don't see, and the political direction they're heading!

To new people: I make Scandi inspired knitting patterns with a modern twist✨ and I host a knitting podcast on YouTube, since 2016.
