Pre-blocked finished sweater - feeling pretty good about it! Knit this cardi for my daughter- now need to block and ship to her. Pattern is Foundation cardigan on ravelry. Its the color of her eyes ;) #knitsky #showmeyourknits and then back to another sweater for my husband.

#knitsky #showmeyourknits stitch please bulky wool in "olive you" for my daughter - cardigan is "foundation". #wip #craftsky loving the feel of this yarn and making decent progress despite having to set it down for a couple days.

First (major) cast on of the year - I made an ear warmer/headband last week. Foundation cardigan, "stitch please" wool, worsted in color "olive you" iirc...loving the increases.

Good morning, happy new year - thought everyone could use a pic of a little knitting helper. #showmeyourknits #knitsky #cozy #craftsky

Funny little canning jar cozy for my husband's sourdough starter. He did sourdough for years and then when Covid rolled around everybody was doing it, oddly enough he fell off doing it. Now it is unfashionable again so he is back at it. #cozy #sourdough #baking #showmeyourknits

More ear warmers! Love the 2x2 rib best (striped green and light blue). but they all have qualitites I like or even love.

Now complete! #showmeyourknits dk merino socks. Vanilla top down dk pattern. #knitsky #holidayknits

Anyone have good Links or videos for making Ukrainian pavok (spider) decoration? Never done it, not even sure what I could/should use to make these… #pavok #craftsky will be googling but suggestions appreciated. Tia

Progress! Enjoyed the round toe in this vanilla top-down sock. Had a lot of doubts throughout and some issues, but turned out so cute and cozy. On to the second sock. #knitsky #showmeyourknits (brights) also loving the hot pink having flecks of yellow in varying degrees to my surprise- goes v well!

#showmeyourknits brights - I am making these striped socks for my dd - dk weight, so possibly done for #christmas - looking very “pink lemonade”ish to me. 🍋 good colors for getting through Jan and Feb. LARGE calves so figuring out sizing as I go, foregoing it being more of a surprise. 🌞 #knitsky

#knitsky #showmeyourknits #holidayknits finished the second sock - took a lot of breaks for other stuff during sock #2. Pretty happy with the them, wrapped and under the tree. 🌲 whew!! 😅

As in life, we can’t control what comes at us, but maybe we can control how we react and what boundaries we set. I for one am ok with the use of any hashtag anyway others like to use it. One of the more amusing (to me) multi-use tags that I have used is #socktober - turns out..

A few quick holiday cards I whipped up - was originally going to try to print a single design, but I couldn’t find the linocut supplies so just enjoying this white pencil on colored card stock. #holidaycrafts #craftsky #gingerbread #mittens

Possible socks #showmeyourknits #knitsky I got the yellow and light pink on a bargain rack and then realized I needed something with polyester in the heel so I got this fancy ball of hot pink for heels and toes and I’m kind of excited, think they will be pretty fun :)

Holiday knits! Love it - #showmeyourknits #knitsky #holidayknits #smiskis #miniknits

@bsky.app the people cry out for an edit button …. For real :)

The little smiskis with hats - not a terrible fit considering they were 300 miles away! #showmeyourknits #knitsky #smiski

Proposing more use of #holidayknits - you don’t have to give up your other hashtags, but this might be a fun one to toss on around the holidays. Could be any holidays at all, imo ! Also #holidaycrochet ? #showmeyourknits and #knitsky and 🧶 for visibility.

My daughter requested these for her collection of smiskis- little green figures. Gonna make a few more for her to take back after thanksgiving break, book inspo below, tiktok inspo in reply. #showmeyourknits #knitsky Very fun book - from local library.

Completed second earwarmer headband, went a bit wider. Forgot how much I like this dark brown with orangey brown variegations. Third one started with stripes of lighter brown. Knitpick’s swish merino superwash. Gentle wash and tossed into dryer for a fluffy final fo. #knitsky #showmeyourknits

Reposting for fave Indy dyers- two hanks I picked up at Maryland sheep and wool, both knit up beautifully both very pretty imo pretty 😍 www.opalessencefiberstudio.com neighborhoodfiberco.com/products/tra... - loving their rhinebeck 2025 colorway “trans forming liberty” #showmeyourknits #knitsky

About to become an ear-warmer factory! adapted from “totally tubular headband” pattern. Tried the cast on they recommended but my God I almost died… the complexity. Just used long tail cast on and Italian sewn bind off which I am getting the hang of. Utterly untubular, man #showmeyourknits

Haven’t gone fully hard-core fluffy, but do have a few items with a nice halo! (Mohair or alpaca mixes) and looking forward to using this Rowan alpaca classic with something else…

No idea what is up with #showmeyourknits this week- been driving all over the country (feels like) visiting people …neighbors had a baby recently, so I attempted a bear Bonnet! Fear the color is giving mouse instead of bear but that’s cute too, right? ;) #knitsky drops Nepal (wool+alpaca) soft❤️

Not spooky but trying to think of a relaxed costume and I thought I could use this fuschia pullover I knit as the base. chowder, one of my fave cartoon characters, is a fuschia fellow- and this hat off ravelry looks ideal! Dare I? May wear to a Halloween themed knitting event #showmeyourknits

A #sock completed! Not yet blocked and not “perfect”, but still very happy with it. Started studying network stuff for my job and the writing of flash cards has kind of messed up my elbow, so I’m gonna take a break from both socks and writing #showmeyourknits #knitsky 🧶. May start a #sweater ! Lol

One last post for #showmeyourknits theme of care and joy - bit of self-care with my new neck light- actually progressing on these socks with dark yarn, whereas before it was very slow going!! Also my baby alpaca v neck pullover- started last year, finished a week or so ago. So soft!

#showmeyourknits #knitsky working on socks for my son who has tree trunk legs. Theme of care. Plus #socktober is almost here ;) 🧶

Pullover I finished in September for my daughter off in a very wintry state for school! She just got it and loves it!! And it fits with the theme of joy and care. #showmeyourknits #knitsky #yarncrazy last year she was often cold Dec-Feb so this year we are doing better❄️

Woven stitch shawl, orangey merino from wool festival is fairly autumnal… +some other merinos from Lys. Glad to find a project using two yarns alternating every 2 rows to show off the single hand dyed merino hank. Stitch was fun, easy and looks cool imo. -#showmeyourknits #knitsky

#sharkweek - I mean #scarfweek ! For #showmeyourknits #knitsky - here is one I posted a while back, gifted.

Happy 250th to Jane Austen! #austenite #austen #englishlit #skybooks janeausten.co.uk/pages/festiv...

#showmeyourknits more progress on this sweater, Rosalia- nearly ready to attach sleeves! Very nice wool yarn, Berroco lanas quick, “faded jeans” And “harbor” — feels nicer to knit with than I was expecting. #knitsky hope this keeps my daughter super cozy this winter! ❄️

Working on this fun chunky knit, Rosalia sweater, for my daughter. Some reports of directions being confusing for the yoke, but still giving it a go. One broad stripe of harbor green across the chest. #showmeyourknits using berroco Lanas quick, per the pattern. #knitsky

Buttons question! Working on this step by step cardi, the button band is thick - should I go for a button with shank? Best sources for cool buttons? Tia #showmeyourknits #knitsky 🧶

Finished and stripey! #showmeyourknits #knitsky Enjoyed wearing at the beach :) Sabai top 1.

This hat happens to be a scrappy knit, #showmeyourknits #knitsky - cream wool leftover from a skein one of my sisters sent - now this hat has gone back to her. Going to make 10 more of this hat, in love with how fast it was, and how cute the result was!

I like knitting stockinette but was talking to husb today about a possible knitting machine - if I did it at all, leaning towards addi 46 needle - mixed reviews on amazon. will ask at my #lys - but curious any experiences /products you like? Cautions? Thinking blankets 🤔 #knitsky #showmeyourknits

#knitsky #showmeyourknits what I’ve been working on in the purple cotton - sabai top, happy with it so far, nearly ready to join front and back and knit in round! The blue cotton is peaches and crème, helping me stretch my one lone skein of this lavender…hard to tell but so 🤩 pretty.

Have been out of it for a couple weeks- had a blast in Montreal, didn’t get any yarn in the end but got a cool sock book! Catching up on #showmeyourknits here is a hat I knit in 2 days and am very happy with -

On the positive side, wound up a massive ball of cotton yarn in blue and lavender #showmeyourknits #knitsky and cast on for a sleeveless top. Love this chair for being a spare pair of hands. :)

Icy blue ❄️ knit for hubby, but honestly, it is just driving me crazy - It’s just really darn hard so I am putting it down. I will probably frog back and try again maybe over the winter. #showmeyourknits #knitsky #tricoter at this point the offset of the rows is the main issue, ugh.

Ordered a few wks ago from this “magic scissors” shop, I think they are out of Spain, though this was shipped from Netherlands… I didn’t buy too much because I wasn’t entirely sure I would even get it l, but received what I ordered, at a very good price, bonus stitch markrs & ❤️ the witch! #knitsky

Trying a cell stitch for a top - getting the hang of it more and more …frogged back a bunch and restarted once already. This is a wacky one. #showmeyourknits #knitsky

Late again - for yellow theme from last week - whipped up this quick bracelet/cuff for someone today … then remembered I’d finally made something with yellow. #pride kind of piece, one side of one of the flags. Happy pride! 🌈

A day late For last weeks’ knit in public… at the pool today. Perfect for knitting! #knitsky 🧶

“Finished” my pollinator Tank, design by hook mountain handmade. Happy with fit, color and the little pollinators That run up the sides. May detach the straps in back and redo the back yoke a bit but overall very pleased. #showmeyourknits #knitsky

#knitting on a train #showmeyourknits knit in public day - may get out in public later today but no events nearby that I’ve found…

Reposting my one lone cowl - just love this yarn.

So cute! #showmeyourknits 🧶 #knitsky
