I'm turning my Stevie's Dream socks into a pair of fingerless mitts. It's such a beautiful design!

Rose blooms come, and then they go.

I dead-headed my roses yesterday. The first blooms of spring were ready to be cut.

They passed their peak by the first days of May.

I had to remind myself that roses are not their blooms, but the whole plant.

Which book and yarn combo would you choose?

The #ilovebooksandsockknittingkal25 hosted by Earth Tones Girl started last week!

I'm making a pair of vanilla socks. Now I need to decide which combo. Which would you choose?

The beginning of my Nyezi Pullover designed by Noma Ndlovu Knitwear 🧶.

I'm using Plymouth Sea Cotton in the colorway Soft White for this project.

A series of simple knits and purls makes this project a calming experience with a stylish, textured finish.

Thank you everyone for all of the love over my new FO ❤️❤️❤️. I forgot to share the pattern's name.

It is the Ruth Cardigan by Irene Lin. I held two strands of Purl Soho's Cattail Silk in the colorway Charcoal Flower Fields to knit the fabric.

I cannot wait to wear my most recent FO. This top was knit with 100% silk. It's light and cool to the touch, but warm enough to wear in cool weather.

The Ruth Pullover by Irene Lin.

I ripped out the sleeves of my Pressed Flowers cardigan earlier this year. Here's what the process looked like.

The keys for me were taking my time and marking where I planned to stop.

Also... scissors ✂️.

Expectations v. Reality
Knitting with 100% silk yarn

Expectations
1. Hard on the hands when knitting
2. Feels like a sturdier thread
3. Splitty

Reality
1. Comfortable to knit with
2. Soft, but has a paper-feeling quality to it
3. It doesn't split, unless you're like me and hold it double 🙃

My November knit. I was too distracted by the Ruth Pullover pattern not to knit it. Thank goodness for stash yarn!
