I’m preparing to cast on a Traveller Hoodie by Andrea Mowry tonight. I was a good girl and did my gauge swatch, wound all my yarn, and created a detailed project page with initial notes. 🧶 #responsibility #KAL #dreareneeknits #capybara

My WIP is the #TanagerTank, a test knit for @windwoodfarmknits.bsky.social. Loving it! #knitsky #knitting #knit 🧶

#showmeyourknits WIP is Andrea Mowry’s Winters Beach Cardi. I am loving working with Hedgehog Fibers Tweedy. It feels like a treat every time I pick this up. #DreaReneeKnits #HedgehogFibers #knitting 🧶 #knitbluesky

Used my Gleener on one sleeve of my pill-iest sweater, knit in Knit Picks Capra (merino + cashmere). I’ve since learned that cashmere is notorious for pilling. Still, it is the softest, coziest sweater I’ve knit. Pattern: Storm Sweater by PetiteKnit. 🧶 #knitting #knit #knitbluesky #showmeyourknits

A single hand-knit sock ended up in the dryer…oops. 🧶

Finished the Flax Sock sweater for my 8-year-old. Does anyone else knit kid sweaters just assuming that they might be snagged/lost or covered in marker/dirt/snot? And still you consider the recipient to be infinitely knitworthy? #love #skyKAL #knitting #blueskyisforknitters #knitbluesky #knit #flax

My last FO of 2024 was this amazing cardigan by ANKESTRiCK, the Girlfriends Cardigan. It’s my pink contribution to #showmeyourknits 🧶

Say goodbye to this sleeve…it’s getting frogged! One of the things that sets my knitting now apart from 2-3 years ago is my willingness to redo a project or part of a project if it’s not exactly the way I want it. In this case, the sleeve was too big and I need to start decreasing sooner.

Early this morning I bound off the hem of the modified Flax Sock sweater I am making for my kid. I love starting my day with knitting. I have made several Flax sweaters—it’s such a great basic pattern to make your own. See alt text for modifications. #knitting #knit #skyKAL #blueskyisforknitters

I am doing ANOTHER test knit this month…this one is super fun: Cat Doodles by @pacificknitco.bsky.social. I am making decisions as I go, using scraps and leftovers, and knitting two socks simultaneously on 9” circular needles. So cute! #knit #knitting #showmeyourknits #skyKAL #blueskyisforknitters

The very first thing I finished in January was my Salty Days Sweater. I knit it with deep stash while I was on vacation, and all around it was such a positive and satisfying experience. As soon as I bound off I was thinking about casting on another. #knitting #knit #skyKAL #blueskyisforknitters 🧶

I’m so excited to cast on a test knit this month: the Tanager Tank for @windwoodfarmknits.bsky.social #knitsky #showmeyourknits #knitting #knit 🧶 Pattern release is in April.

I started and completed this sweater in January this year! I have some big goals for 2025, including knitting 12 garments. #knit #knitting

Happy February! 2025 is a destash/low buy year for me. Here is a little peak into JUST the pinks and reds. I’m looking forward all the fun planned and spontaneous knitting this year! 🧶 #knitting #knit #destash

I just finished blocking a pair of mittens I knit for myself… they turned out to be too small so now they belong to my kid. Knit with some way back stash of Brooklyn Tweed Loft and lined with alpaca. Now to knit a bigger size before spring arrives. #skyKAL #knit #knittersofbluesky #knitting 🧶

Working on a modified Flax Sock by Tin Can Knits, in KP Palette, color Cyan. I love to have at least on project on the needles that is mostly stockinette in the round, for those moments when you just need some mindless knitting. #knitting #skykal 🧶

Quick project for a friend this morning… preemie sized hat for an unexpected arrival. #knitting 🧶

Is there such a thing as too many hand knit sweaters?
