Gloves! Needed for these travels, will stay useful back home. Lovely purply tweedy yarn with nice new needles 🤩🪻

Another beanie done. The pattern looks like tiny flowers in this snowy weather 💐

The extra ball of yarn I got for the beanie is now getting made into a simple matching cowl 🐝

Second beanie on the way, with a different self-patterning sock yarn this time. Some split opinions on the colourway—whether it looks more like Miffy the rabbit or Mondrian’s art 🎨 either way it’s super bright and cheery!

Beanie is done🐝 My first time working with self-patterning sock yarn went great, loving the pattern that’s come out. Will definitely use again. Recipient very pleased.

The yarn emoji jumper is done 🧶 My first time working with 100% wool, I was amazed at the difference after wet blocking. Wore it out already, lovely weight and comfy oversize fit 🙂‍↕️

Mended a big hole courtesy of Dog, who briefly mistook these folded socks for a toy. 🧦 Darning is definitely something I want to practice more on. The knots left on the outside per sock owner’s request (but surely there’s a way to hide them better?!)

A hexagon cardigan made from scrap yarn. Tweed buttons from the Isle of Bute, where we went for a short getaway. I love the blue/brown colourway and still wear it often 🌊

Finally starting this beanie after buying the pattern a year ago. Working with self-patterning sock yarn for the first time.

This is going to be so good for those long festive commutes, but hopefully won’t take too long to make. I need to get two finished before January 🗓️

I was recently gifted some pu’er tea from home, which I haven’t had in years.
To keep the tea hot, I made this tea cosy last night with 2 balls of white wool that was forgotten in my stash. Quick freehand project that’s already working wonders on this cold day 🥰

❄️☃️ For the frosty walks this week we’ve finally broken out this #crochet granny jumper I made from scrap yarn for Dog last year.
No pattern used, and a few balls of yarn easily busted 😌

A quick hello! Based in Scotland, have fidgety hands, a desire to procrastinate, hoping to use this space to record the things I’m #knitting, #crocheting, etc etc.

Baby blanket I finished a few weeks back. First go at a backing, hand-stitched as I don’t have a sewing machine! 😅

Turtleneck WIP. My first attempt at a raglan did go a little haywire, but reckon I pulled it back sufficiently. Also my first time working with 100% wool, which feels lovely
