One sleeve down, one to go. This is the #ScornedSweater currently in testing for @perfectlyknotted.bsky.social

Feeling the fall vibes with my @sewhappyjane.bsky.social Delightful DK yarn 🧶

Why fall knitting is my favorite: I can knit in front of the fire in the morning & then outdoor in the sunshine during the afternoon 🍁 🔥 🧶

Working on a test for @perfectlyknotted.bsky.social What can I say - her patterns are too good to pass up! #ScornedSweater #knitsky @sewhappyjane.bsky.social

Working on my latest test knit (yes, I’m addicted to testing 🤣), this one for @samanthaguerin.bsky.social

This is the #NightlinesSweater and it’s shaping up to be gorgeous! Paused the body to do the neckline before deciding on hem length next!

Finished another fabulous test knit for @perfectlyknotted.bsky.social

This is the #MoriaSweater, coming this fall. It’s a fabulous bulky sweater with lots of yummy texture and it absolutely flies off the needles. I’d consider myself an average speed knitter and I made this in one week 🥳 #knitsky

#knitsky #showmeyourknits prompt is blue and even though blue is my favorite color I apparently don’t knit with it that often! Here are 4 accessory projects I’ve made over the years - the first 3 are all @kaceyknits.bsky.social and the multicolored shawl is by Tammy Gore #memadewardrobe

Happy 4th of July. Here’s hoping we’re still celebrating being an independent country next year and that we’ve course corrected back towards liberty and justice for ALL

And happy birthday to my grandpa, who would’ve been 99 today 💕

Cowls were my first intro to knitting and @kaceyknits.bsky.social makes the BEST cowl patterns. They’re interesting yet intuitive enough to also be meditative. They make beautiful finished objects and Kacey is so approachable if you have any questions!

Wore my Petal Party Crop by @samanthaguerin.bsky.social with a maxi dress that I bought 20 years ago for 20 dollars and it’s an outfit that always makes me feel both comfortable and put together. Yay for #memadewardrobe and an easy style #knitsky

Daytime knitting transitions to evening knitting - I traded my coffee for a cutwater 🥳 bind off of the collar tonight and then cuffs are up next! Also attempted chocolate pavlova with my 4yo a la Bluey and it turned out pretty delicious 😋

wearing one of the first shawls I started as a newbie knitter - this is the #MisnomerShawl by @kaceyknits.bsky.social and while I can’t say it was the easiest project I can say that it’s one of my coziest finished pieces. So glad I persevered to finish it! #knitsky #showmeyourknits #DK
