I did it, I actually did it and finished a thing that I knit for my sister! And not just SOME thing, but a whole whopping sweater! ✨

(We're not taking about weaving in ends here 🤫)

Pls tell me it's not just me who has major problems finishing gift knits 🙃
A finished (!!) pink knitted sweater is lying on a blue blanket. Well ignore the loose ends of yarn that will have to be woven in eventually (but today is not the day).

Re-reading the first two books of the Emily Wilde series by Heather Fawcett - before tackling her newly published 3rd novel of the series ✨

A flatlay photo of a light pink sweater, an e-reader with an open book, and a nice, steaming mug of tea.

The #DoppioSweater by Seeung-hee knits is such a game changer for your leftover yarn! Usually, I don't like too colorful sweaters, but the 3 yarn combo brings so many possibilities ✨
A flatlay photograph of an unfinished knitted sweater. It's knit with different yarns, so it has a marled and stripey look to it. The yoke is finished and the sleeves are separated. The colours are mostly orange, brown, silver and reddish.

Mood for today, while trying to work from the couch with a massive headcold (as seems to be a trend right now..) 🤧 On another note: I would have started to knit with Bouclé yarn sooner - if I had known that it can beautifully replace itchy Mohair! ✨
A flatlay with a golden-yellow knitting project made out of the squishier Bouclé Yarn, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, some flowers (plastic - full disclosure..) and an e-Reader with the cover of "The Spell Shop" on display. The knitting project sports a cute little duck stitch marker (that glows in the dark!!).

Today, my brain forgot that a pot lid that had just been in the oven at 200°C for 30 min might be hot 🙃 I now have a crispy fried left hand, but at least my current book is amazing 😌📚 I guess, knitting will have to wait a few days.. @paperfury.bsky.social #booksky
