🧶 #KnittingForNiblings The second dinosaur pullover is blocked, and I love the way it turned out. I think 3 year old nibling will appreciate it, and I‘m looking forward to giving it to them in a few weeks. The pattern is by @aimeeshermakes.bsky.social #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky
A hand knit pullover with overall colourwork and diagonal yoke shaping is laid flat. The pullover is knit in undyed white wool, and a colorway that shifts between greige, pink, and blues in dinosaur and nature designs. The designs include a flying dinosaur, leafy fronds, long necked dinosaurs, dinosaur prints, tyrannosaurus in a bed of flowers, leaves, stegosaurus, eggs, triceratops, and mountains. The collar, hem, and cuffs are knit in the colourful yarn. Pattern: Coloring Book Tee Mini by Aimee Sher Yarn: Schoppel Wolle Zauberball Pro 100 in Elchtest and undyed wool

🧶 One more for #ShowMeYourKnits. Holding a strand of lace weight alpaca with this wool gave me a beautiful hood that has been one of my go to pieces for three years now. I like to wear it any time I’m wearing a jacket without a hood. Pattern and yarn info in alt text. #KnitSky
A hand knit hood with a drawstring is laid flat. It is knit from a strand of light green wool held double with a strand of light brown alpaca. Pattern: Bonbec by Emilie Luis Yarn: Hey Mama Wolf Mokosh Fingering in Roos and Isager Yarn Alpaca 1 in natural light brown

🧶 Back to #KnittingForNiblings. This is the first pair of trousers I made with the Siri pattern by Sanne Bjerregaard. It‘s supposedly sized for 6-9 months old, but seems quite large, even though I got gauge. 🤷 Anyway, it is going to a future nibling, arriving in a few months. #KnitSky
Hand knit light blue baby trousers is laid flat. They have a wide mock cable hem with a drawstring drawn through, and mock cable cuffs that are folded over. Pattern: Siri by Sanne Bjerregaard Yarn: Lana Grossa Cool Wool Baby

🧶 I‘m too itchy to knit with floofy yarn a lot. I like the way the strand of light brown alpaca gives a slight halo, and brings the colours together, but this pullover does not see as much use, as it deserves, and is one of my very few projects to have a floofy strand. #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky
A hand knit pullover is laid out. It has a circular yoke with cluster stitch columns and 3/4 length sleeves. The colours range from rusty orange, red, ochre, mud, beige, to darkening browns, ending with a mossy green. The colourful yarns are held double with a light brown stand of alpaca. Patterns: Sorrel by Wool & Pine Yarn: Das Mondschaf Hydra in 2020 countdown calendar colours and Isager Yarn Alpaca 1.

🧶 Dinosaur pullover no. 2 is well under way. Both siblings love pink, but don‘t get to wear it often. So I found colourways that incorporate it. I hope I‘m there when they really examine these sweaters and compare what designs they have on them. #KnittingForNiblings #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky
A hand knit pullover in progress is laid out. The pullover is knit in all over stranded colourwork in wool white, and a yarn that shifts colours between pinks, lavenders, and grey blues. The sleeves are still missing, but the rest is finished, and you can see flying dinosaurs, leafy fronds, long necked dinosaurs, dinosaur prints, tyrannosaurs in flowery fields, leaves, and stegosaurus. Pattern: Coloring Book Tee Mini by Aimee Sher Yarn: Schoppel-Wolle Zauberball 100 Pro in Elchtest and undyed yarn.

🧶 #KnittingForNiblings continues for future nibling that will be joining us soon. Lolo thought he‘d buy me yarn, in light blue and pale pink for some reason. I‘m using it to make nibling welcome things. This is the third project. I‘ll get around to showing the others soon. #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky
A light blue and pale pink hand knit work in progress is laid on a white table with wood frame. It will be baby pants with a lacey mock cable hem. It starts in light blue and switches to pale pink in the middle of the hem. The legs are currently on the needles and being worked two at a time, because Cesca is playing yarn chicken and seeing how long the pants can be.

🧶 Just off my needle, washed and blocked, I present my finished bright dinosaur sweater, sized for 6 year olds. Blocking magic worked, my trust was rewarded. I can‘t wait for 5-year-old nibling to receive it, but that has to wait for sibling‘s pullover to be finished too. #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky
Cesca‘s hand knit bright dinosaur pullover is laid out on a wooden floor. The pullover with diagonal yoke shaping is knit in stranded colourwork with alternating dinosaur and nature patterns. These include a flying dinosaur, mountains, triceratops, leaves, tyrannosaurus on a bed of flowers, water, long-necked dinosaur with a leaf, dinosaur tracks, stegosaurus, grass, dinosaur eggs, hills, and big tropical leaves. The background colour is wool white, while the contrast colour shifts from yellow to pink, turquoise, and blue. The collar and hem are knit in wool white, while the cuffs are knit in the contrast colourway. One is mostly yellow, while the other shifts from turquoise to pink. In hindsight, I could have knit all in the contrast colourway, but I wasn‘t sure it would be enough yarn.

🧶I forgot what I was posting about here 🙈 It‘s been a bad pain week though, so it‘s not surprising. This is the second #KnittingForNiblings project I finished in the last two months. The cousins can match, but not match, now. This 2-colour version is sized for 3-4 year olds. #KnitSky
A hand knit children‘s jacket is laid flat. It‘s knit in 2-colour brioche with 2 undyed colourways of the same yarn. The yarn is Hey Mama Wolf Ylva. It has five rainbow coloured snaps to close it, and is could be worn with any side out. The collar stitches are picked up though, so one side is a bit less neat than the other.

🧶 #KnittingForNiblings this autumn started with this jacket for the 1 year old in squishy brioche. The parents have had to switch out the rainbow snaps because they didn’t hold well. Good thing I had knit button holes, so it was no problem. #KnitSky
A hand knit brown jacket is laid flat. It‘s knit in brioche, so it has a nice squishy texture. The button bands and cuffs are beige, and it has rainbow coloured buttons.

🧶 The work in progress that fascinated the 5 year old nibling. I’m a bit apprehensive it might turn out too small because I did not swatch and just hoped for the best with my references from earlier projects. 🤫 Don’t tell the kid. Isn’t it beautiful though? #KnitSky #KnittingForNiblings
A hand knit colourwork pullover in progress lies in Cesca’s lap. The main colour is undyed white, and the contrast colour shifts from yellow to pink, to turquoise, to blue. The pullover is covered in dinosaur and nature patterns: mountains, triceratops, leaves, tyrannosaurus, water, long mecked dinosaurs, dinosaur prints, and stegosaurus. A line of dinosaur tracks runs upwards along the sides.

The 5 year old this morning: Was? Knittest du nur mit eine yarn colour? Wo ist deine colourful yarn?
I speak English with them, they speak a mixture of German and English with me. I had to switch to my second project because I forgot to bring the needles I needed. #KnitSky #KnittingForNiblings

🧶 The 5-year-old has finally started showing an interest in my knitting. I am knitting a wonderfully colourful pullover for them. We spent at least half an hour talking about knitting, and my tools, and they helpfully unwound yarn from the ball for me as needed. 🥰 #KnittingForNiblings #KnitSky

🧶 I’ve had some problems with adding pictures to posts, but I’m glad it’s working again. I’ve been on a big #KnittingForNiblings kick, and have finished a top, two jackets, and this pullover in the last month, and still so many plans. #Knitsky
A hand knit pullover is laid out on a wooden floor. The pullover is knit in two colour brioche, and is reversible. It had a wool white collar, and grey cuffs and hem. The side that is shown has white knit columns on a grey backdrop.

🧶I’m not big on spooky knitting, so this is the closest project I’ve made. I thought this hank would be variegated, instead it turned out to be colour blocked in these beautiful spooky season colours. Meanwhile #KnittingForNiblings and #Socktober continue bts. #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky
A hand knit top is laid flat on a wooden table. In the top left corner a pink cup holds tea beside a grey teapot. The slightly cropped racerback top is knit from a colour blocked yarn that means the straps are pale orange, the main body is orange, and the bottom of the body and hem are a dark grey.

🧶 Who needs sleep? I accidentally kept myself awake by hyper focussing on my kdrama and these socks until past midnight last night. Suffice it to say, this morning was very slow. I made it to my appointment on time though & started another pair of socks as travel knitting. #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky
A pair of hand knit socks are laid out on a light grey textile surface. The socks are knit in a blueish light grey and have a slipped stitch pattern, and boomerang heels. They are fresh off the needles, and have not been washed and blocked yet.

🧶 #ShowMeYourKnits I spent a lovely day playing with two of my niblings. It was a successful day because the 3-year-old asked to continue playing with me instead of going to bed 😄 Here are the last socks I finished. They’re knit in reverse stockinette from the rest of the yarn from my top. #KnitSky
Cesca’s feet are wearing hand knit socks and are shown from the front standing on a wooden floor. The socks are fraternal with one fading from light pink to rusty red from cuff to toe, and the other fading from toe to cuff.

#KnitSky What are the baby knits you’ve made that have been most used or appreciated?
I want to make something for the next baby. Siblings got and used baby blanket and romper sack, but parents have those. So I’m wondering what to make for this baby, that is most likely to be used.

🧶 I made this monster book end a few months back, and somehow it just has a very whimsical, but kind aura. It’s a good listener for sure. This evening it’s cheering me up while I’m feeling very overwhelmed by work. Pattern: Monster Bookends by Rebecca Danger.
#KnitSky #HandKnit
A hand knit stuffed and weighted monster stands on a table. It has thick white, bright green, and light green horizontal stripes. One tooth sticks up out of a horizontal line that is the mouth, and it has kind of Shrek-like green ears. Irma wide set eyes look at you kindly, and it seems both whimsical and calm.

I’ve somehow launched myself from being uninspired what to knit next into projects for my niblings. They are the ones I knit for most apart from myself. Always a joy, and a labour of love. This one flew off my needles. I hope nibling will be able to wear it next year. #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky
A green hand knit top for toddlers is laid out on the seat of a light grey armchair. The sleeveless top has a neckband pattern that extends down along both sides, and repeats around the hem. The hem is spit at one side where it also extends into long ties that are tied in a knot. Pattern: Clarckei Kids by Marie Amelie Designs

All finished, and I won yarn chicken! Less than 1g of the light green yarn left, less than 5g of the other. I love when my plans work out 😄 Definitely a joyful knit. I’m thinking about selling this one. Any recommendations where to do that with least hassle in DE or EU? #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky
A hand knit pullover is laid against a light grey armchair. The pullover has dolman shaping through a garter stitch triangle and 3/4 length sleeves. It is vertically striped in light and bright green.

Project 2 is finished and blocked, and ready to be worn over shirts. Blocking did wonders. I ran out of the light pink yarn. The plan was for 6 more rounds which would have brought the fade down to the hem. Pattern: Everyday Round Vest by Noriko Ichikawa knit inside out. #KnitSky #ShowMeYourKnits
Cesca shows off a hand knit cropped vest in front of a messy bedroom. The vest is knit in light pink and old rose yarn with the main body shading from pale pink at the shoulders to old rose around the waist in reverse stockinette stitch. All edging is done in old rose. The shape of the vest ist slightly off shoulder and baggy, but the ribbed hem brings it together around the waist. Unfortunately the light pink yarn ran out before the fade could quite be completed, so the bottom part is all old rose. Pattern: Everyday Round Vest by Noriko Ichikawa Yarn: from

#ShowMeYourKnits Here‘s an autumn project that matches my current project. My first Pyramis was part of the test knit, and I added the sleeves after finishing the sleeveless version. Ainur added a sleeved version to the pattern, so now anyone can make a lovely cozy sweater like mine.
#KnitSky
Cesca takes a mirror selfie wearing their Pyramis with 3/4 length sleeves. The hand knit sweater had a garter stitch triangular hem, that makes the shaping of the sweater to a dolman sleeve. It‘s knit in rust and oat coloured vertical stripes with a boat neckline.

Project 3: This also came on our trip, though I didn’t work on it much. It‘s my current „at home“ project, and I am now knitting the sleeves taat because I might run out of light green yarn, and I want them to be even.
Today I am pooling my energy for my nibling‘s birthday party tomorrow.
