#knitting the Leonitis pullover and am trying to pick up stitches for the neckline. It’s fine until I get to the sections where I shaped the neckline by doing kfb increases. The edge of the kfb increases are kind of weird and I’m just not sure where to pick up. Has anyone dealt with this before? 🧶

Wow wow wow. What a ride. This scratched an itch I didn’t know I had? Yay female rage! Five stars. #booktok #horrorbooks #ghoststory

Hey everyone. What is your go to bind off for a ribbed neckline? I’m going for stretchy, but not so stretchy that the neckline will stretch out over time. I’m working in 2x2 rib, but I’m willing to transpose to 1x1 BO if needed. #knitsky #knitting 🧶

Is the #barnesandnoble preorder code not working for other regular rewards members? It says my membership does not qualify for the promotion but in the banner it says “premium & rewards members” #booksky

There are so many “basic tee” #knit designs out there. Can anyone recommend one over another? Looking for one that is just effortlessly comfy and versatile, and doesn’t choke me around the neckline. #knitpatterns #knitsky #knitting 🧶

Guy at the bar: “I appreciate that you’ve had at least three different types of alcohol.”

Thanks?

Does anyone else feel like one day, their post man is going to stage an intervention? He’s probably like…Jesus, pick a hobby. #knitting #knitsky #crochet #bookworm #booksky #aardvarkbooks #bookoutlet

I was coming back to BOR and realized my previous M1R increase was oddly loose/long. My stitch count was correct so I went ahead and knit it like normal. Something is wrong but I can’t tell what? Picture of front and back of work #knitting #knitsky 🧶

What’s everyone’s opinions on LLI increases? The designer of the pattern I’m working says she used these instead of make ones because it looked better in her sample. I finished the initial increases and I’m not sure if it just needs a good blocking but I think it looks messy. #knitsky #knitting 🧶

HELP. The instructions say to do German short rows but then describe some yarn over and slip business. I’ve only done the slip purlwise and rotate yarn to back to create a ds, GSR. Are they interchangeable? I’m confused 🥲 #knitting #knitsky 🧶

Is lazy swatching better than no swatching? 😅 #knitsky #knitting #catknitsweater 🧶

Currently trying to swatch stranded colorwork in the round and it’s driving me nuts. I’ve restarted it thrice. 😡🧶 This is making me want to say screw it and just start my project 🥲 #knitting #knitsky #catknit

Reasons my boyfriend is a walking green flag. After telling him I scheduled my IUD exchange, and him knowing how badly I’ve been dreading it, he asked if I would rather him get a vasectomy instead. 😭

My two gauge swatches for science…top is in the round, bottom is flat. I think I cast on maybe seven more stitches for the flat swatch. Both with 4.5mm seeknit needles. Top swatch matches gauge. Flat is too big. Steam blocked the top swatch, wet blocked the bottom swatch. #knitting #knitsky 🧶

I need a gauge of 20 stitchesx29 rows. I have 16 stitchesx26 rows, would going down from a 4.5mm to a 3.5mm suffice? I’m swatching with mohair so I can’t really just make unlimited swatches. (Can’t frog all this mohair to reuse yarn, can’t afford to use a bunch of yarn on multiple swatches)🧶#knitsky

SOS. The dog decided that ball of yarn looked like a really fun toy 🥲 #baddog #yarn #knitsky 🧶
