I made another gnome!!! It’s made from the “all work, gnome play” pattern. I love little Gnorwen. She will be sent to my little sister for Christmas!!! #knitting #knitsky #gnomes

This set. It has a sheen to it and I can’t figure out what to knit with it. Anyone ideas?

I’m with you. I’ve knit one scarf and I’ve never worn it. lol but I actually love my rectangular shawls, and I wear them like scarves.

This weeks #showmeyourknits is perfect for me. I have one project languishing (garden gate) while I work on another (mossblossom). I guess I’m not as polyknitterous as I usually am, I typically have more #WIPS going. I’ve finished a few recently. 🥹

Large crew neck (ranunculus) or a gentle V (Three Season Pullover).

Managed to get a few more rows in on my Mossblossom. The instructions are correct, the pattern is very easy to memorize. This is now my travel project. 😃

I learned how to crochet last year just so I could make her Monstera plant coasters in a pot. you can sort of see it behind those pumpkins. I knitted last year too.

#showmeyourknits #sweaters

I have knit and shown y’all so many sweaters. It’s the only thing I really knit. I keep wanting to try knitting gnomes, and Christmas ornaments, but for some damn reason, I always cast on another sweater. 😆

(although I just cast on Mossblossom, which is a shawl…)

Nothing quite like knitting outside in the last of summer’s heat. It’s still pretty warm here in the Pacific Northwest, so I have my newly cast on Mossblossom on my needles, my feet in a “pool,” and am surrounded by my dogs. It’s absolutely lovely.

#showmeyourknits #babyweek

I’ve only made a handful of baby items because there’s not a lot of babies in my life. Upon second thought, maybe there are babies and I just avoid them. 😉

One of my favorite books and movies!!!

I usually watch LOTR around the Winter Holidays to commemorate its release, but I’m struggling too. I’m feeling a lethargic. You inspire me to engage in my favorite movies and play with fibers to recharge!!! I think I’ll take this bad boy out of time out…

Sweater update: I haven’t given the sweater to CJ yet, I wanted to dye a little swatch to show her what it could be like if we died it with Pearl Grey Rit Dye. The sample came out so cute!!!! I actually love it. I’m curious which one she will pick. #ranunculus #knitting #knitsky #yarndying

Oh that’s funny. I have black yarn for my 6th one. The last three were gifts. This one is for me. These two are mine. Terracotta in DK, pale green sock held with alpaca lace. I can’t wear the pale green one very often because it’s growing because of the alpaca.

It’s done!!! Ranunculus #5 is ready to gift!!!

Just needs to be blocked. It was rainy this morning, so I decided to wait until tomorrow when the temps are supposed to climb again.

Is so damn cute. Love the cropped look.

Welp. Just started my 5 (!!) Ranunculus. This time in Aquamarine Malabrigo Rios for my 12 yo niece. Should be perfect for school. She likes crop tops, so I’ll keep this one short.

For this weeks summer knits theme, here is my Bolan in linen. It’s such a lightweight knit. And so easy to wear.

This top is special to me. Because my neighbor gifted me the yarn, and we knit one together. ❤️

I made some shorts to celebrate the warm weather hitting the PNW today!!! For years I’d wear things that were very understated and plain. Since embracing my ND brain, I learned that I absolutely adore handmade details. Plus got to reuse some old jeans!! 👖 ♻️ #Craftsky #makers

Part four… this is so crazy, because I always thought it was a selfish knitter. I guess not. 🤷🏼‍♀️. The last photo is my absolute favorite. It’s me and my best friend’s daughter. I’m so lucky that she shares her with me. 🩵🩵
