Third time's a charm?
Pattern purchased when it was first published in 2007, yarn is Laci from Blue Moon Fiber Arts (no longer in business) about the same time.

I've tried knitting Irtfa'a a couple times, but I'm really determined to finish it this time.
I wasn't my own raven's wings, dammit! 😂😂

Speaking of socks, here's a mini painting of a pair of socks that I did not too long ago.
I didn't realize until after I finished it, that the reference photo used was actually a painting as well. Oops... 🤪

I'm also onto the sleeves of this pullover (for me).
Since we are heading into much warmer weather here in Canada, I'm taking my time finishing it. 🧶😊❤️

I just checked and it looks like the last pair of socks I knit was in 2021.

I've been knitting this current pair over the last few days and every stitch has felt really therapeutic.
I forgot how satisfying a good heel turn is, too. #knitting #🧶 #knittedsocks

Watching British Crime Dramas, knitting a sock, and enjoying bonding time with our foster cat Rooni.

She recently discovered laps are cozy places and people aren't so scary.

Spent this holiday Monday finally digging the garden that I wanted to put beside the shed in our yard since we moved in.
Planted hostas, phlox, sedum, sage and lavender.
I can't stop looking at it now. It looks so cute, even at night! #gardensky #gardens #summer

Excited to finally have separated for the sleeves and am now on the straightaway of stockinette for the body of this pullover.

I really love the feel of this Estelle DK yarn!

It was so lovely. A cafe packed with people. Everyone went silent at the specified time & all that remained was the turning of pages, the sound of jazz, and the scent of coffee wafting by.
It was beautiful.

Tonight I joined the Margins Club . A local cafe hosts nights where everyone in the joint shows up, orders themselves coffee & reads quietly (no talking!) for an hour or two while listening to jazz music.
Also includes an optional book swap at the end & social time.
It was heaven! #booksky

The colours remind me of the painting "The Kiss" by Gustav Klimt .

Just me over here documenting my recent yarn stash acquisitions on #Ravelry. Realizing that I've been self-medicating my stress over politics lately with soft, cushy yarn. Could be worse, right? 🧶

Yesterday we took a trip to Toronto for Record Store Day, and while I picked up some great vinyl, I also scored some lovely new yarn from #YarnsUntangled in Kensington Market.

Received my yarn from @indigodragonfly.bsky.social yesterday! Colourway is "A View to A Kiln" & their fundraiser to help @jenniethepotter.bsky.social with a new studio.
The suggestion box is now open for best pattern to show off this GORGEOUS custom colourway.

I'm a total sucker for really good construction details in a knitting pattern. They go a long way towards helping you create a garment you're really proud of.
I'm at the hem of this pullover & it's construction is so clever & practical that I needed to stop & photograph it. 😂🧶

Painting knitted fabric has been something I've always wanted to improve at. I started this one today, and while it's VERY early-stages, it's already better than what I've painted previously.

I am really loving how professional and smart the little design details are in this pattern.

Now working on the long stretch of stockinette for the lower body of the sweater.

A little more work on this still life piece today.
Deepening shadows, adding highlights and colour correction.
