Got samples back of my first film scans in months. I’m looking forward to doing more of this and doing it just for me ❤️

It’s a beautiful day for sleeve #knitting on the porch ☀️ #knitsky 🧶
Crystal’s hand holds a partially knit sleeve in gray-black. A bit of pink diamond colorwork is visible.

Happy Mother’s Day to all who celebrate! My kiddos took me to the park where I remembered to bring my camera, but forgot my film 🤦🏻‍♀️

Road trips mean knitting time! I’m loving this combination of @evergreenfiber.bsky.social Pinkity Piggy (Sow’s Ear exclusive) and @madelinetosh.bsky.social Dirty Panther. This one is bringing me so much joy ❤️ 🧶 #knitsky #knitting #knittersofbluesky
A sweater yoke lies on Crystal’s lap. It features red, pink, and white variegated diamonds on a cool gray-black background.

This last week we welcomed a member into our family. Meet Lucille, a one year old Shiba Inu rescue who loves people, especially the little kind. She fits perfectly into our family! ❤️ #shibainu #dogsky

On sleeve island over here on this dreary March day. This sweater is going to be awesome when it’s done, but I can’t say I love sleeve knitting 🧶 #knitting #knitsky
A half knit black sleeve lays on a wood table. The yarn is one strand of Knitting for Olive Pure Silk and one strand Yarn Citizen Trinity Cashmere. A water bottle is in the background with a sticker that says “The only minority destroying this country are the billionaires.”

Shot a roll of film tonight. It’s been a hot minute, but it was fun. Pearl even got into it, even though she kept asking to see the pictures after every shot 😂 #filmphotography

#musselburgh hat number 3 is finished! I used a kit from @evergreenfiber.bsky.social for this one. Erik has already claimed it as his own 😂 #knitsky 🧶

Here’s the finished Monday Sweater Junior by #petiteknit on the intended kiddo (Amelia). I used two strands of @blueskyfibers.bsky.social Prairie in English Rose. She loves it and doesn’t want to take it off! ❤️🧶 #knitsky

Cuter photo to come, but Amelia’s Monday Sweater is officially finished! Double stranded suri is quite a delight to knit with ❤️ #knitsky

Here’s another one that I finished in June. This is the Amelia sweater by @sloanerosenthal.bsky.social knit up in @hudsonandwestco.bsky.social Forge. I really like this yarn. It’s super easy to work with and had amazing definition. #knitsky 🧶

Decided to pick up a camera for the first time in months. I finished this sweater almost a year ago, but here we are. This is the Keep It Warm Sweater by @aterlierajour.bsky.social in some floofy alpaca by @skeinyarn.bsky.social. Pretty sweater, pretty yarn. Recommend! #knitsky 🧶

With Pearl’s cardigan finished, it came to my attention that Amelia was in need of a sweater 🧶. So here I’ve started the Monday Sweater Junior by PetiteKnit using Blue Sky Fibers Prairie held double. This thing is so soft and fuzzy, Amelia may just get lost in it. I’ll keep you posted. #knitsky

I haven’t picked up a camera in far too long. The state of the world is depressing and I haven’t felt very creative. The cold weather and early darkness don’t help. I don’t have much else to say about this, so here’s a film photo of my Pearl. Maybe inspiration will strike soon or maybe it won’t 🤷🏻‍♀️

Recovering from the flu means comfort crafting time over here. Whipping up a few granny squares from the 2020 advent set from Explorer Knits & Fibers.

This evening’s activities include working on this little cardigan for Pearl while simultaneously trying to play Simon Says with her. It’s not easy when Simon tells me to run a circle around the house.
