It's rainy day in Portland today, so I started another Cloudberry Scarf Bandana. This time, Tahki Homespun Donegal Tweed 100% wool worsted yarn from my stash, & size 9 (not 5) needles. It will be substantially larger than the last one. The free pattern: www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

For hat week, here's two versions of the same hat - one color work, one where I purled instead of changing color. #ShowMeYourKnits

One January I challenged myself: how fast could I make a hat, &2 how many hats could I make before I was sick of them (no other projects to break it up, just hats)

I shared a hat last week but I can share another! Here’s “Braineater” by Vi Caughran. I ran out of the blue yarn so it ended up as a bunch of disembodied tentacles. #ShowMeYourKnits #knitsky #knitting 🧶

The pattern is The Witching Hour Swoncho from Dear Ingenue, except I modified mine to be a sweater because my bust is too big to be comfy in the swoncho shape no matter how much I wanted it 😂. Yarn is Swish Worsted from Knit Picks, dyed with fluorescent dyes from Dharma Trading Co! 🧶 #knitting

Knitting pattern request: my brilliant ass decided to purchase mohair. I had the good sense to purchase a matching merino yarn, but I need to make something. I have a hat or cowl’s worth of worsted/sport-ish weight year. Please point me at a fun pattern I won’t hate myself for with the mohair.

Went to Rhinebeck (NY Sheep & Wool festival) for the first time in years. Finally got to try the lamb souvlaki! Also bought some yarn.

I am trying again to make friends with a drop spindle, and I think I have to accept that my 33g Turkish just can't do thin singles. Which is fine, because this Shaniko Tweed from 316 Dye Studios (in the appropriately named Lite-Brite color) will look pretty good as a DK/worsted 2-ply. #handspun 🧶

For me, one of the biggest compliments i can give a pattern is to finish one and immediately cast on a second. Finished my Dubbel Dark in Riti and immediately grabbed yarn for a second in Falkland Worsted. I adore this pattern! #knitsky #knitting #amanoyarns www.mindseyeyarns.com/products/rit...

Starting a new hoodie for kid. He wore through the elbows on the last one, so this time we’re going with a more rustic wool.

And since I need some comfort food, Practical Magic to keep me company

Do you have a table of these somewhere, Derek?

I know the numbers but only for medieval linens and early modern woollens and worsted. I dearly wish I knew modern parameters, as I'd love to do a time series from Medieval clothing to the modern day to show much prices have fallen in clothing.

Another hat from the 10,000 Knitted Hats book by Jo Allport. Double Rib brim, zigzag stitch body & reverse stocking stitch decrease for the crown. Yarn is Gotland Pure Worsted by Nurture From Nature, Low Auldgirth Steading, Dumfries. An absolute joy to knit with.

Spooky season for #showmeyourknits? I have just the thing!

The Arachne Pullover 🕷️ is perfect for Halloween, but tbh I wear mine year-round bc I love it so much.

You can get the pattern on Ravelry and Payhip. It's size inclusive and worsted weight. And spooky!

Also, I am using Premier Cotton Sprout Worsted 100% cotton. Cotton yarn can be painful to work with but this is super soft and I have experienced no ”rug burn” on my fingers, which has happened with rougher cottons. And the Boye ergonomic hook was money well spent!

Realizing that I do not like cabling with anything heavier than a DK or light worsted. It knits up quicker and can have more squish factor, but ehhhhh nah.
