I don't mean to brag... But I won yarn chicken! And it fits! Now on to the sleeves...

#knitsky #knitting #SweaterKnitting #YarnChicken
A gray hand knit sweater body, laid out on my duvet, sleeves not yet started. It was knit top down and the bottom is finished, with the end of the yarn pulled through, and measured against an extended measuring tape. There are seventeen inches of working yarn left over, already attached to a darning needle so I can work the end in.

Finished knitting fingerless mittens for my MIL! A late gift, but we have plenty of cold days left this year (and it is very nice merino wool my husband bought)

A satisfying mend on a king-size top sheet. Not my best work, but probably the biggest holes I've ever patched on a sheet. Seam allowances are nestled between the two seams (snoot of likely suspect for holes in 2nd photo)

#mending
A dark blue king sheet fashionably nestled into a hamper in my laundry room. Two colorful patches with printed rabbits are sewn in, with two lines of stitching around them. The same dark blue king sheet, same laundry room, but flipped to show the back. The backs of the patches are paler, and show two lines of machine stitching. The snout of a black dog is peaking into the frame from the right.

If you see this, quote with flowers from your gallery.
Three light yellow and white daffodils growing in front of gray brick and white siding. The two on the left have two and three flowers, with white petals on the outside, and yellow on the inside. On the right has a single flower, peach petals on the outside, orange on the inside.
