If she who dies with the most yarn in her stash wins, ya'll need to start workin' on who is gonna be second.
An SUV slammed into an Amish horse and buggy just down the road from me today. This happens waaaay too often around these parts

Seven more rows and I'll be halfway through the colorwork on the back of my First Snow Tunisian crochet knit stitch cardigan. Definitely slower than the last one. On track to be done by midsummer ::sigh::

Also, all this work better be manifesting me some serious snowfall in the meantime 🧶

This ain't knitted colorwork... but it sure *could* be, eh? 🧶

Jade Starmore, the daughter of Alice Starmore (AKA the best knitwear designer in the UK, I don't care what Tom Daley says) is every bit as talented as her mother. I want to sit and knit, err... Tunisian crochet at their feet. 🧶

This is unusual. I like unusual. #knitting 🧶

Have you seen this one?

Cable knits have officially hit the red carpet and I am sooooo here for it 🧶

You mean not a hank? Was it a skein or a ball? This is what I mean by ball.

I tried but I got nuttin'. It's funny because I have some really ancient Red Heart in my stash that is practically the same colorway. It's not single ply, bulky, nor wool though.

Think I need to do some Tunisian crochet colorwork in this palette I made. Way beyond the realm of the usual colorways I use, but I'm feelin' it... maybe for a long coat with two-color stripes of Fair Isle and/or Selbu motifs. Course, new colors means new yarn will be required.

Hate that <koff> 🧶

Hey Game of Wool, I found a worthy Fair Isle knitting "Final Challenge" project for ya. 🧶

All blooming at once, that NEVER happens. I have four more with spikes that aren't blooming yet. Nothing on the B. Nodosa or the Cattleyas unfortunately. My plethora of violets are doing well, goldfish plant is blooming, Monstera has a new leaf, and both Thanksgiving cacti are corroded with buds.

@arrrdeecee.bsky.social I bet you're behind this obvious prank --.--

Well, we did get a tinge, lol

And then there's mine.

25 rows into the knit stitch colorwork on my First Snow Tunisian Crochet cardigan. Only 122 more rows to go for the back panel :P

I may like this one even better than the last one, but it's definitely gonna take longer due to finer yarn, and being a little longer and slightly more oversized 🧶

If I hadn't had to remake a sleeve and most of a collar, this would have STILL taken me 3 months instead of the 3.5 it did take. And if you ask @snowfloe.bsky.social, I'm apparently fast. The expectations they are setting for professional knitters are extremely unreasonable. 🧶
November 10, 2025 at 2:21 PM
I mean, it's a fun waste of time, and I'm happy to see our crafts get some attention, but when you can potentially knit something like this, the last thing I want to see is a Gritty mascot dog coat. Besides, Alice Starmore is already the best knitter in the UK, nobody here even compares 🧶

Word is the feckless @schumer.senate.gov is about to cave, so I signed this using @resist.bot. Did you?
