Another one for #showmeyourknits cable week. I finished this last week. Simple knit with 3/4 sleeves, rolling sleeves and neckline and a 6-strand cable at the bottom. Yarn: merino with stellina by The Woolchemist Pattern: my own #knitting #knitsky

Cables for #showmeyourknits this week. I finished this tank top recently, and I love wearing it. 😊 The close up shows the colour much more accurately. Yarn: Samhain by Untangled Yarns Pattern: my own #knitsky #knitting

A tank top for this week’s #showmeyourknits green theme. Yarn: Dystopic Fibre Pattern: my own #knitsky #knitting

#showmeyourknits this week is on the needles & inspiration. This is the start of a jumper. The cable is the bottom band, and I picked up the stitches at the side to do the body. Yarn: The Woolchemist - Nutcracker (Melt the ICE fundraiser) - Merino with stellina Pattern: my own #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits this week is sweaters. I made this one about five years ago, but it‘s still one of my favourites to wear (wearing it just now, actually 😁) Yarn: Rightside Yarns Polwarth Pattern: my own #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits this week is right down my street as I love knitting lace. This scarf was my last lace knit. Yarn: 100% silk by YarnTings Pattern: my own

My entry for this week’s #showmeyourknits is a merino shawl with lace pattern stripes. I made this a couple of years ago, but it’s still a staple in my wardrobe. Yarn: Dystopic Fibre Pattern: my own #knitting #knitsky

Grey theme for #showmeyourknits this week. I made this jumper a few years ago. I still wear it, but as it’s 100% alpaca it frequently needs de-fluffing. It’s fantastically warm, though. Yarn: hand-dyed alpaca Pattern: my own #knitsky #knitting

I posted this for #showmeyourknits WIP week on Saturday. It came off the needles on Sunday - my first FO of 2026. 😁🧶 #kniiting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits WIPs this week. My merino jumper is nearly done. The yarn is Proud as a Peacock by Untangled Yarns. I absolutely adore the colours in it. 🥰 It’s been such a relaxing freehand knit. Hoping to finish it this weekend. #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits My first superwash knit 5 years ago. I’m allergic to wool, but I liked the colour (Forgotten Banana) so much that I decided to risk it and found that I can use superwash. I know that it has its own issues, but I like it much better than a lot of the acrylics on offer. Info in ALT.

I finished my cowl today so I’m posting it again for #showmeyourknits knitter’s choice! It’s so soft - I’ve been wearing it all afternoon and I don’t want to take it off. I’m really pleased with it. 😊 #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits knitter’s choice: I picked up this glorious sparkly merino yarn (STEVE by the Woolchemist) at the Woolly Good Gathering in Edinburgh this spring and made it into a shawl. I also got to play serious yarn chicken. 😂 Pattern is my own. #knitting #knitsky

Whites and brights week for #showmeyourknits White isn’t really my thing, but bright I can definitely do. 😁 This is my Christmas Day cast on - a very simple cowl in pure silk. 🤗 Yarn is Faves by @yarntings.bsky.social and it’s wonderfully soft and shiny. #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits cardigan week. I’m not really a cardigan knitter or wearer, so I don’t have much to choose from for this week. But here’s a wee set that I made for a little person a few months ago. I think the yarn was called Hedgerow. The pattern is my own. #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits is holiday themed this week. I decided that I needed some sparkle at this time of year, found some appropriate yarn in my stash and finished my sparkly scarf this morning. 😊 As ever, the sparkles don’t photograph well, but they’re definitely there. #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits indie week. 😁 My favourite indie dyer is Untangled Yarns in the Scottish Borders untangled-yarns-ltd.square.site The colours are always stunning! Here’s a selection of jumpers / tank tops (+2 in the works) & shawls / hats in their yarn. Patterns are my own. #knisky #knitting

I’ve just started the right thing for this week’s #showmeyourknits floof prompt: a lacework scarf in pure silk. Looking forward to wearing it. 😁 Yarn: Conker by YarnTings Pattern: my own. #knitting #knitsky

My current #showmeyourknits WIP is a simple tank top made from The Woolchemist’s Mechanical Flow merino yarn. Unfortunately, the sparkle in the yarn doesn’t show up in the picture. It’s funny, though, that different hanks of the same hand dye yarn come out completely differently. 😁

Cables for #showmeyourknits this week. 😁 I used tiny cables to create a lattice work on this jumper and added Estonian braids for a bit of variety. Yarn: Not Just For Girls by Rightside Yarns Pattern: My own #knitting #knitsky

I didn’t think I had a horror story for this week’s #showmeyourknits until I took this jumper out of the wardrobe. I knitted it several years ago and decided I wanted to unravel it and make it into something new. It looks like a moth got there first! 😮😱

Not that spooky for #showmeyourknits but I’ve got something seasonal on the needles at the moment - straight up stocking stitch slip-over in Pumpkin Spice (merino hand dye by Untangled Yarns). 🎃 #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits this week is scarves. I rarely knit scarves, but I made this one for a Terry Pratchett fan - my interpretation of The Colour of Magic. I stitched in (badly ☺️) what Google told me is the Latin motto of the Discworld knitters “Shut up, I’m counting.” Yarn: Warlock by Rightside Yarns.

#showmeyourknits WIP this week is a jumper. 4ply hand dye from Untangled Yarns called Fire to a Flame. The colourway is quite autumnal so I decided to make it a leaf pattern. 😊 #knitting #knitsky

Just getting this one in for sweater week for #showmeyourknits Just a simple knit in the round using two different dye lots of Untangled Yarns’ Apples to Orchards and Enchanted Woods for the cuffs. I the colours are much more accurate on the outdoor picture.

Shawl week for #showmeyourknits I love knitting shawls and I particularly love this one. I used the Woolchemist’s STEVE colourway (named after the atmospheric phenomenon) in merino with stellina. Unfortunately, the sparkly bits don’t show up on the photo. Pattern is my own. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits knitter’s choice week. I made this well over 30 years ago (freehand and not a pom-pom maker in sight 😁) when my dad took up cross country skiing and wanted a hat for it. I thought little skiers might be suitable. 😊 He’s no longer with us so it’s come back to me. #knitsky #knitting

#showmeyourknits It’s done! 😁 Really please with it. I managed to get the whole top out of two hanks, but I I you look at what I had left over, it was serious yarn chicken in the end! 😂

#showmeyourknits Knitting just for summer seems kind of pointless when living in Scotland. Although, I might change my mind with the current temperatures! 😅🫠 Anyway, I’m hoping to finish this tank this week. It’ll go well with summer skirts.☀️ OOAK merino yarns by the Woolchemist & my own pattern.

This week’s #showmeyourknits prompt is blue. I didn’t think I had that many blue knits, but as it turns out I have quite a few. Here’s one from a around couple of years ago - the yarn is Cellophane Flowers by Untangled Yarns and the pattern is my own. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky

Two WIPs for this week’s #showmeyourknits 😊 The first is a summery cabled shawl & the second is a nearly finished green tank top just retrieved from the naughty step - I’d made a mistake in the lace weave and couldn’t find it. 🙃 I’m also sneaking in a new FO - totally pleased with this jumper. 😊🧶

#showmeyourknits prompt is garter stitch this week. It’s not a stitch I ever use for the main part of a project, but it’s my go to stitch for finishing off shawls. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky

Another one for this week’s #showmeyourknits yellow theme. Shawl in Gummy Bears and slouchy hat in Turning Leaves colourways, both a mix of Corriedale and BFL. #knitting #knitsky 🧶

#showmeyourknits prompt is yellow this week. 🤗 🥰 I love yellow and have quite a few yellow knits (and some planned), but this oversized tank top really got me back into knitting five years ago after a bit of a hiatus. The colourway is called Forgotten Banana. 😁 #knitsky #knitting 🧶

#showmeyourknits Knitting in Public Day. Part of this morning was spent at my usual public knitting haunt - Untangled Yarns in Galashiels untangled-yarns-ltd.square.site Apart from my own sofa it’s my favourite place to knit. 😁🧶 Currently knitting a jumper with one of their hand dyes. #knitsky

Blankets for #showmeyourknits this week. I’ve only ever made one - during Covid when I needed something simple to keep me occupied. It’s just self striping yarn in stocking stitch. It’s huge and it only really comes when it’s really cold or one of us is under the weather. 😊🧶 #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits I finished my WIP from the start of the week, so this is my current one now. It’s going to be a lightweight jumper. The yarn is a 4-ply hand-dye called “Women not Witches” from Untangled Yarns in Galashiels. I think the colours are just glorious. 😊🧶 #knitting #knitsky

You want to know why folk might think this? Because the vast majority of the UK's media is wildly dysfunctional and fundamentally shit.

My almost finished WIP for #showmeyourknits is a wee cardigan and hat for a little person due to be born in the autumn. I just need to crochet a few more tassels on the hat and tidy up all the threads. After years of knitting it’s my very first time doing raglan sleeves. 😁 #kniiting #knitsky 🧶

#showmeyourknits purple week. My purple (and other colours 😁) shawl is finished - I had about 40 cm of yarn to spare in the end. What you can’t see on the photos is that it has sparkly Stellung in it. The colourway is called Steve after the phenomenon similar to the aurora borealis. #knitsky

My current WIP fits the #showmeyourknits purple theme this week as well, I suppose, even though there are other colours in the mix. Casting off at the moment… I might just about have enough yarn! 🧶😱🫣 #knitsky #knitting

#showmeyourknits is purple this week. I love purple and knit with it a lot, but this is the jumper I made with chunky purple yarn when I could finally knit again after struggling for quite a long time with pregnancy induced carpal tunnel syndrome. 🧶😁 #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits is DK this week. I have not knitted DK for ages, and I have posted quite a few of the ones I’ve done already. Here’s a favourite from five years ago though. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky

#knitsky #knitting #yarn 🧶 So… how is my “I’m not buying any more yarn until I’ve substantially reduced my stash” plan going? ….. 😂 It was on sale. How could I not? 😁

Quickly getting another one in for #showmeyourknits independent dyers/LYS. 🧶 Current WIP combining leftover yarn with a similar colourway for a shawl and my newest acquisition, which I claimed while it was still in the pan. 😁 ❤️ All from my LSY untangled-yarns-ltd.square.site #knitsky #knitting

This week’s #showmeyourknits is indie yarn / LYS . My local yarn shop is Untangled Yarns in Galashiels in the Scottish Borders - untangled-yarns-ltd.square.site Julie and Kezia dye the most beautiful yarns. These are some of my shawls made with their yarn. Another one is in the works. #kntsky

Grey for #showmeyourknits this week. 😁🧶 I made this alpaca jumper quite a while ago. It’s quite plain, but I snuck a little owl with beady eyes into the corner. 😊🦉 #knitting #knitsky

WIPs for #ShowMeYourKnits The purple shawl was still my WIP at the weekend, and as it’s done now 😁 I’ve moved on to a tank top / sleeveless jumper in a lovely fresh green. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky
