A bit of floof (Fingerless Mittens by Iris H) plus a second pair of Ardently socks (Kitchen Sink Shop) currently gracing my needles for #ShowMeYourKnits First time knitting with floofy yarn! 🧶 #knitsky

Eep I need to get on this!

My first FO of 2025 for #ShowMeYourKnits - I like it but there's something about the fit that feels off to me still 😅

Hoping to finish knitting a second pair of socks for #Socktober - am about to start the heel of the second Ardently Sock by the Kitchen Sink Shop (yes, it's inspired by Pride and Prejudice) 🧶 #knitsky

Jane Austen's 250th birthday is coming up in December and I hope you'll celebrate by taking a turn about the room, acquiring a passion for dead leaves & closet shelves, and taking a fancy to the last person you could ever be prevailed upon to marry.

I unfortunately do have something for #ShowMeYourKnitting horror stories- see this beautiful jumper? I washed my bedsheets, took them out of the dryer, and out came some of the prettiest felt in the world. Only got to wear it two or three times 😭

What is a roost? Here are some bat roost facts: 🪹 Bats do not make nests, but choose various places throughout the year to shelter, live and sleep in. 🦇 Where bats choose to roost varies between species and the time of the year. 📍 They don't stay in the same roost the whole year.

Does it have bats... why yes, yes it absolutely does 🦇

This week's #ShowMeYourKnitting and conveniently today's museum knitting is socks! It's fun to do bright colours for gift knits because I never really wear them myself #knitsky 🧶

Difference between undergrad and postgrad: I actually read the methods and references sections!

I never know what to do with my knitting scraps, but I love the idea of making matching accessories after finishing a garment. I made this scrunchie with scraps from my beloved Wool and Honey jumper, even though my hair isn't quite long enough to use it #ShowMeYourKnits #knitsky 🧶
