#ShowMeYourKnits prompt is grey? I find grey dull, boring & otherwise undesirable to wear or knit - for *me*.
linktr.ee/sevensistersarts Astrid 🧶in "Abalone" is as close to grey as I get: at a distance it looks grey, but it has all the iridescent colors of abalone 😍

There has been a lot of thinking, calculating, frogging and reuniting on this. Have decided I really don't like knitting stripes in the round, but have persevered because I can't stop petting the swatch #knitting

Continuing #showyourknits in green, this is sweater I love to wear on 3/17 when it is cold enough, but not this year. I think of the glorious 🧶color as March Violets.

#ShowMeYourKnits this project used the largest size needle I've ever knit with, a US 17 - a very CHONKY knit 🧶!
Starry Light by Laura Nelkin
Loved the FO so much I've made two. Have another string of LEDs to make a third one.

#ShowMeYourKnits 🧶 🧦🧦 Sock are about my least favorite knit. Last fall finally made myself a pretty & soft (cash/merino!) pair for lounging about the house. Love them but don't expect to knit more anytime soon.

In February 2018 I knit this beastie for DH, he adores otters. No hearts, or red or pink yarn, and love is not in the pattern name, but was a true manifestation of my love: his name is Valentine. Pattern is River Otter by Sara Elizabeth Kellner, 🧶 is Cascade EcoWool. #ShowMeYourKnits

Love? Here's a wee heart I knit last year for my DH. Truly a labor of love as fiddly knits and small needles were the bane of my existence even before LongCOVID. Pattern is Palpitations by Hunter Hammersen, knit in SweetGeorgia Merino Silk Fine, the Raspberry colorway #ShowMeYourKnits

I particularly like the back of this vest. I used every bit of the 1000 yards of TinSilk I bought at Rhinebeck.

Half the butter = half the problems with the dough and at least twice as tasty! With the seedless Marionberry preserves, they just melt in your mouth.
