Holiday knits: I have a recent snowflake project and one in snow and ice colors. Both have been shown here before. On a day like today, the grey socks seem to be more fitting, though.

Turkey vegetable soup. Not yarn related, but it's very tasty.

I'm currently working on mittens in the Highland yarn in caramel (darker) and a lighter sand color whose name I have yet to find. They're based in NH and their yarn is filled in a water powered mill that dates back to the late 1700s.

This is published by interweave press. Not sure it's still in print, but it might be available used.

This one ticks both boxes for #indiedyedyarn and indie designer in this week's #showmeyourknits theme. The yarn is fingering weight organic cotton dyed by @mile-wide-crafts.bsky.social and the pattern is not yet released but is also an indie pattern.

Finished! It's a bit bigger than I had thought and may require some elastic to make it more wearable.

Slow progress on the diamond ear warmer (pattern by Sunny Link). I'm knitting both sides (inside and outside) together, so it takes a little longer. For some reason this pattern is requiring far more concentration than I expected.

Another of my current WIPs: the diamond ear warmer by Sunny Links. I'm knitting it double, though, using two leftover colors of Bernat Lattice yarn. It's slow going because the pattern wasn't written for double knitting, so I have to concentrate. I'm enjoying the challenge.

One hat, under construction. It's the Rudensky hat from Janelle Masters. I added the stripes to the ribbing because I wanted to.
The yarn is Highland from Harrisville Designs, not sure about the colors.

I've been working (or not) on the rainbow stripes for a while. They are all from from Summer Lee's, The Sock Project, knitted in Mile Wide Crafts organic fingering cotton (Rainbow Sparkles color) and Kroy yarn from Patton.

I saw a video on pretty spindle wrap techniques and decided to try one for this Turkish spindle. It's taken some practice, but I really like how this came out. Hopefully, you can see the yellow on yellow pattern. 😁🤩

For the care and joy prompt: I knit this a while ago for a family member who was suffering a long illness. It's a large throw size, almost twin sized, made from very washable Bernat blanket. It has come home since and keeps us warm now.

New attempt at #handspinning . This one was a bit more successful. The rainbow bits were from a bag of random colors I got for experimenting with the child mentioned last post. The natural grey was from stash (older than said child). It came out to 99.75 yds in about a worsted weight.

What happens when a child and an adult collaborate on #handspun yarn? It's actually balanced after finishing, but we will politely refer to it as an art yarn. It has some extra fancy bits where the plying spin changed in the middle, some thick 'n thin boucle textures, etc. Yellow is #handdyedyarn 🧶

I have three current WIPs: the halo sweater is on the back burner; the German short rows sock from Summer Lee's Dock project; and a test knit dye soon (not shown).
All projects knit with Mile Wide Crafts hand dyed yarn. 🧶

A sweater I finished this summer for my skater. It's a Lopi pattern (published some time in the early 2000s); I don't have the details in front of me right now. The yarn is Bernat Lattice.

Baby hat, made as a sample of Mile Wide Crafts organic sport weight cotton yarn. This has been posted before, but my littles are too big for baby sizes now.
