For #showmeyourknits I give you a very generic scarf. I was seduced by the colourway but it was too scratchy for socks so I just embraced the curl and did stockinette.

#showmeyourknits You’ve seen my WIP before but it has progressed a bit. Here’s the sweater from last week but I couldn’t find the pattern - I suspect I took it out of my knitting bag one day and put it somewhere random.

#showmeyourknits still on the road so all I can give you is a WIP shot for a favourite cotton/linen short sleeve sweater that I wear the heck out of.

I’ve done a ton of baby blankets over the years but very few are on my camera roll. For #showmeyourknits here is the start of the one I just started. Someone needs to remind me how slow double knitting is - but I do love the cooshy finished product.

We drove twelve hours to get here and the fresh lake trout at @SerendipityGardens did not disappoint (it never does). Trust me, do not pass by Rossport, Ontario without stopping in.

Happy #caturday! Audrey is technically no allowed in my husband’s room, but for years she has been carrying on a forbidden love affair with this piece of luggage when I fold laundry.

It’s a good thing this Lichen & Lace yarn is so lovely to work with because this pincha shawl is eating my brain. #wipWednesday

For #caturday I give you my friend’s cat Earl, aka Mr. Tail. He was part of a litter of barn cats where everyone else was bog standard tabby and he somehow came out looking like a purebred Turkish Van.

#showusyourknits I’m not much of a garter stitch person but I added a bit to this lace that I’m working on. And I remembered this Día de Los Muertos cowl as well.

The rockhounding trip to Fort Frances wasn’t very productive but we did get to revisit the wonderful boudinage road cut at Horse Collar Junction.
