#showmeyourknits scarf week. I don’t knit (or wear) many scarfs but here’s what I got. The Sally one the pattern called a shawl but I think it’s more scarf like.

So my mine and my mom’s mother day tradition is to go to the Western NC Yarn Crawl. We only went to four stores, but it was a great day that has brightened our spirits and refreshed our (ok mostly my) yarn stash.

Knitting and reading has become my happy place. Hadn’t read a book in years after being a voracious reader in my youth. #knitsky

Baby knits #showmeyourknits #knitsky I’ve knit more for babies than I’d realized. This isn’t even all

I got excited that there was another sock pattern named for trains, and then I realized you knit them on the train. Train baby socks for reference (also knit with leftover yarn)

Ah colorwork. This might be the knit project I’m most proud of. The Sally Dress Shawl from Tanis Gray’s Nightmare Before Christmas book. Excuse the dog please #showmeyourknits

Green is my favorite color. My first sweater was green. But my favorite green was these bamboo pop socks. Combination of two patterns. Started waiting for an MRI and finished during a hospital visit. Ah caring for sick parents. #showmeyourknits #knitsky

It’s knit in triangles, then sewn into hemispheres, then sewn onto a 22” yoga ball. I make maps for a living so it’s the PERFECT project for me, I’m just having issues with the intarsia amid chronic migraines. Here’s the shop sample

#Showmeyourknits lace

I think this is the only lace I’ve ever done. And it was in short rows

Required in knitting too

Update. Not going so well for the knitting

Ernie is learning how to observe knitting, not eat yarn. It’s tough being a kitten.
