Some ranunculus progress! I didn’t remember that there was an option to taper the sleeve, which I might have preferred, but I didn’t want to rip back and so did the option of going straight into the the icord bind-off. First time trying that technique - fun! #knitting #knitsky #yarncraft
Colour photo: a pink sweater lies on a table. One sleeve is done, while the other is on knitting needles attached to a ball of yarn.

Finally framed this tapestry - I got this paper probably decades ago so happy to finally use it! This is meant to be a autumn mountain and foothills scene but my partner asked if it was a goose and now I can’t unsee it 😂🏔️🪿 #tapestry #weaving #yarncraft #yarn #mountains #sillygoose
Colour photo: A miniature tapestry is shown mounted on a piece of starry blue paper in a gold frame. Intended as a mountain scene, the snow can be misperceived as depicting a silly goose

Knitting the famous Ranunculus! As a novice knitter I’m finding it very accessible - not only because of how the pattern is written but also because there are also so many helpful resources and such out there. In Messa di Voce yarn by @sweetpaprikadesigns.com #knitsky #ranunculus #knitting
Colour photo: A partially knitted pink sweater on a wood table. The sweater had stitch markers here and there and needles still attached. The sweater is drapey and soft looking.

That was close! #yarnchicken #crochet #grannysquares
Colour photo: A crocheted granny is shown with a hook and yarn. A very short amount of yarn is left, implying that there was just enough to finish the row.

This started off as a scarf but the yarn was too stiff and rough so voila - day glo purse! #crochet #diy #yarn

Rearranged my yarn craft books by craft type - haven’t done any tapestry weaving in some time as I’ve been trying to finish all the random knitting and crochet projects I started, and am feeling inspired to get back to it #bookshelf #yarncraft #fibrearts #weaving
Colour photo: A bookshelf is shown - the bottom shelf has a number of books in weaving, crochet, and knitting. The shelf above is full of colourful tubes of warp thread for weaving.

Li’l scarf made in a li’l loom. Some of the same issues as with the last attempt to use knitting yarn as warp, but less drastic this time, and easier to correct 😍 #weaver #weavers #weaving #weavesky #fibreart #fibrearts

Done the rosepath sampler! The wool knitting yarn I used as warp stretched so it took some very aggressive blocking to fix, but with that done I think it looks lovely. The wrong side is my fav with its crisp lines. Super stoked to have learned so much from this project ☺️ #weaving #fibreart #yarn
Colour photo: A length of wool cloth is laid out, showing sections of light purple, turquoise, and dark turquoise separated by strips of dark purple. Each section is woven using a different rosepath weaving pattern, each of which features a different diamond based shape. Colour photo: a length of wool cloth is shown undulating, implying that the fabric has drape.

Finish most of it February? Almost Finish it February? 😅 In all serious I’m very happy with the progress I made, even if it’s not totally done 🧶 #Fif2025 #knitting #yarn #wip
Colour photo: A knitted cardigan sits in a table next to a basket of knitting supplies. The cardigan has loose threads that need to be woven in and stitch markers to show where buttons need to be added.

Guess who sewed the sleeve in wrong, doo da, doo da 🎶 🫠 Have decided adding the button band, buttons, and collar is all that it needs to be considered “finished” for Finish-It February, and that fixing the sleeve is a “repair” that can be done whenever… 😈 #Fif2025 #knitting #crafting #yarn
Colour photo: A cardigan with stripes across the chest is laid out on the floor with a button band pinned in place for sewing. If you look closely you can see the left sleeve is scrunched up and sewn so that it doesn’t line up with the same stripe as the right sleeve, who lays flat.
