I would like to have made more progress on this but since I wear a size 11.5 (left) and size 11 (right) socks are never going to be a quick knit for me. My own pattern and variegated yarn; Cascade Heritage for contrast. #KnitSky 🧶

Great inspiration for those of us who #knit the same boring hat over and over again. #knitsky #knitting #knittersofbluesky #blueskyknits

Look at this magnificent 1930s Shetland shawl…. #knit #knitsky

I didn’t think I would ever get this shawl finished. It is lovely yarn and I’m glad I didn’t frog it. #knitsky #knitting

Took time away from doomscrolling to make something beautiful. This is the Sagebrush shirt by @fridaypatternco.bsky.social in Nani Iro double gauze. The sleeves would make Anne of Avonlea proud. 🫡 #garmentsewing #sewsky #
