I am here mainly as a freetime knitter but might get off topic any moment. Most likely to gardening.
Pinned
Trying to decide what would make a perfect first post. Intro to me! Nicest FO.

#velvetpullover 20 stiches short of FO
#cockleshellsocks Weave in ends
#homelandcardigan Add buttons
#winterjunipersweater Make one more lacepanel and attach
Yet I have started another project #fossilfrenzysweater
Round 1 cleared in SockMadness 19. Also my tiny craftivist stance regarding international politics. This act of support is only a bit above hugs and prayers, wish there was more I could do.

#fiberuarychallenge ’Then and now’. 1987, 13 years old. Not my first knit, but the one that made me love love love knitting - but not as much intarsia. It was HARD for a teen me. For years I only made sweaters. Nowadays I am more into socks.

So you want WIPs #showmeyourknits

Grey one is FossileFrenzySweater coming along nicely. Swatch is me testing brioche, half brioche and 2 color ribbing for Beloved cardigan. And mad sock is qualifier for #SockMadness. I have other WIPs but everything good comes in threes?

I have made Homeland Cardigan by Sanni. (Buttons missing, but I AM working through those WIP’s!) Pattern was clearly written, so she is on my designers I have knitted and can recommend list 🖤

One fish done! Starting to look like one actually. Dorsal fin maybe a bit on the smallish side, but will swim with it. Clearing needles for #SockMadness

Perfect timing to find this #skyKAL! Started spring 2023, and just recently started working again on these little fishes again.

The eyes will just POP when finished.

I wish to finish these by the end of this week. Make me accountable skyKAL peeps 😄

My WIP pile has started to make me feel uneasy. I like having different types of projects for different moods. But leaving project to WIP state when there is only 20 s to go 🤯

Admitting the problem was key to actually finishing! #knitsky

#ShowMeYourKnits through a curveball this week. I do not choose heart motif that often. But I did find one bad picture of hearts in socks that had so much purling that I chose to knit this pair inside out!
