#ShowMeYourKnits WIP edition. Gossamer shawl by Woolenberry in Lola sock by Posh Yarn (who are no longer dying). The yarn 🧶 is 100% Grade A mulberry silk & as well as being so soft, it's really, really shiny so it's a nightmare to photograph (I've lost count at the number of attempts😬) #knit

When it's below freezing and you need to pile on the layers when you go out for lunch 😆🧶 Cardigan: Step by Step cardigan by Florence Miller in Drops Alaska Hat: 10,000 Knitted Hats by Jo Allport in Gotland DK Shawl: A gift from my beautiful bestie @newtosha.bsky.social #knitting #knitsky

Finished my Yule shawl. Pattern is The Green Gold shawl by Moody Knitter Design. Yarn 🧶 is by Ducky Darlings. Bands of relaxing stocking stitch alternating with textured sections. The second section was rather labour intensive though. Altogether, an enjoyable knit. #knitsky #shawl

#ShowMeYourKnits Holiday edition 🎄 The Good Vibes shawl by Nadia Crétin-Léchenne. Yarn is Holly Berry and Poinsettia sock, both by @mothyandthesquid.bsky.social Thanks to the stellina in the yarn, it's sparkly & very Christmassy 😍🎅🏻🎄 #knit #knitsky

Progress on my Yule shawl - The Green Gold shawl by Moody Knitter Design. Halfway through the final stocking stitch section & then onto the border. Hoping to finish it by the Winter Solstice. Yarn 🧶 is Ducky Darlings in Autumn Red & When Santa Got Stuck Up The Chimney. 🎅🏻 #ShowMeYourKnits #knitsky

#showmeyourknits floof! The Nancy's Hug Shawl by Jess Whiting. Yarn 🧶 in Yak Sock, colour Physalis, by Truly Hooked & Rowan Kidsilk Haze in Pearl. The pattern essentially lets you freestyle; it's up to you when to add in the floof or switch between right & wrong side stocking stitch #knit #knitsky

Squeezing my current WIP in for #showmeyourknits - the Green & Gold shawl by Moody Knitter Design/Stella Egidi. Yarn is by Ducky Darlings in "When Santa got stuck up the Chimney" & "Autumn Red". #knit #knitsky 🧶

Finally got round to taking a photo of my finished Step by Step cardigan by Florence Miller. Yarn is Drops Alaska in the colour Cinnamon. This is my first top down cardigan. I've also learnt magic loop, Italian cast on & a double knitted button band. It's so snuggly! #knitting #knitsky #cardigan 🧶

The Dust of Snow wrap by Helen Stewart in the Beachcomber Advent 2024 by @thecamelsyarn.bsky.social held double with Rooster undyed Suri Silk. Finished in January but I've not been able to block it at home because it's huge, so I've done it in our holiday cottage for the week 😆🧶 #knitting #knitsky

This is the Stormy Sky shawl by Ksenia Naidyon in Soft Socks yarn by Lamington Lass. Colourway is Pumpkin Patch. A lovely light & airy shawl - and I do love a tassel 😆 #knitting #knitsky #stormyskyshawl 🧶

My first yoked garment - the Calla tee by Valentina Cosciani in Rowan Creative Linen. Such a great pattern, with clear instructions. I've got a feeling I might be wearing this one a lot. #knitting #knitsky #callatee #yokedsweater 🧶

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. #knitting #knitsky #knittedhat 🧶

#ShowMeYourKnits autumn edition 🍁🍂 part 3 Wonky sweater by Lisa Richardson in Rowan Felted Tweed, colour 154 Ginger. This was my 2nd time knitting this pattern. It's "wonky" as the left sleeve has cables but the right sleeve, next to the front cable panel, doesn't. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits shawl edition 🧶

This is the Léloa shawl by Berangere Cailliau which I finished in May, but only managed to take a photo of it yesterday. It's a simple but effective knit, with the use of slipped stitches to create an eye-catching pattern. Both yarns were by Posh Yarn who are sadly no longer dyeing. #knit 🧶

Not getting much knitting done as the allotment is taking over my life at the minute. Finally got round to having a photo taken of my #wildflowerstee by @tifneilanhandknits.bsky.social which I finished about 6 weeks ago. Yarn is Creme Brulé by Dina's Home of Crafts. #knit #knitting #knitsky 🧶

It's a fine day in Lincolnshire for #KnittingInPublicDay even if it is down the allotment. Not easy knitting with pale yarn when you're wearing mucky dungarees from digging 🪏 😆🧶 #knit #knitsky

A few previous knitting in public episodes for this week's #showmeyourknits 🧶 1. At a café in Lockerbie, Scotland 2. With my mum at The Wool Monty Yarn Festival on last year's knit in public day 3. At Kirby Hall in Northamptonshire Standing in solidarity with my fellow knitters in the USA today ✊🏼🇺🇲

Out at a garden centre today & making the most of my time whilst waiting for my lunch to arrive by cracking on with the ribbing on my #wildflowerstee 🧶 Nearly finished! 🥳 #knit #knitting #knitsky

One of my current WIPs for this week's #showmeyourknits 🧶 This is the Wild Flowers Tee by @tifneilanhandknits.bsky.social This is only my 2nd top down garment I've done. The pattern is really well written & is easy to follow. Think another will be on the cards. Yarn in alt text. #knit #knitsky

#showmeyourknits DK edition This is the Estelle Cable Sleeved Cardigan by Sarah Hatton in West Yorkshire Spinners Bo Peep Pure. I ended up putting shoulder pads in it to help with the fit, so I feel a bit Krystal Carrington from Dynasty in this one 😆 🧶 #knit #knitsky

I can't believe it's been a week since I went to Wonderwool Wales. I went with my mum & my best friend & we all had an amazing time. Did I blow my budget? Of course I did 😆 🧶 #knit #knitsky #wonderwoolwales

This woman is a despicable piece of 💩 Hope you're happy when your house floods, Lincolnshire Reform voters! #AndreaJenkynsisnotmymayor #notmymayor #resist

Absolutely horrified that this despicable woman from a Trump supporting, Nazi sympathising, far right party is now the mayor for Greater Lincolnshire. #notmymayor

#showmeyourknits gift edition 🎁 I made this shawl back in 2022 as a Christmas present for one of my best friends, who now lives in New Zealand. We met at the age of 11 at High School & discovered a mutual love of Narnia. I named the shawl Alambil, after the star in Prince Caspian. 🧶 #knitsky

One of my current WIPs - the Courtship tee by Pip & Pin. This is my 2nd version; I knit a blue one last year. This pattern is the first one I've worked in the round after 40 years of working flat & seaming, & it was a great one to start with. Onwards and upwards! 😁🧶 #knitting

Second submission for #showmeyourknits chunky edition is one from a few years back - 12 to be precise! I don't knit a lot with chunky. Such a shame Sirdar discontinued this yarn 🧶 I loved it. Details in Alt Text #knitsky #knitting

Reposting this one for #showmeyourknits chunky. This was knit on 10mm needles - they were like broomsticks 😆

Oooh, I didn't realise it's been so long since I last posted 😳 This is The Weekend Cowl by Fairmount Fibers Design Team, worked in World of Wool Merino Super Chunky. Cosy, squishy and super quick to knit 🧶#knittersofbluesky

We have a saying in the UK - you wait all day for a bus & then 3 turn up all at once. A lot like my posts today 😆 This is the Solar shawl by Woolenberry. Knitted in sock yarn by The Dye Shack in Embers colourway. Both pattern & yarn 🧶 were gifts from the ever beautiful @newtosha.bsky.social

#showmeyourknits stripes! This is the Advent Wrap by B Devon Steiner in the Myth & Magic Advent from 2021 by The Dye Shack. I've still got half of each mini skein leftover so think I might make a stripey cowl - at some point (Ravelry queue is currently 44 🤷🏼‍♀️). 🧶 #knitting #knitsky #handdyedyarn
