🦡 🦄 🦔 Spoonie.
This pattern has been almost ready for more than 1,5 year 🫣 But finally I took a break from all the blankets and garments, and just got it done 💪🏻
Mayfly Shawl is a cute one-skein shawl. Find the pattern here www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

I really love doing German Short rows 🤓 🧶 and use them as often as I can. And yes, I have quite a few patterns where they play the main role 💕 all can be found through www.spinnemamma.no

Almost 700 meters finished gorgeousness 🧶 in two skeins. The big one is 662 meters and 270 grams 😮 it is hard to understand that this huge skein all fit on one bobbin 🤯
The yarn bloomed so much after a bath 😊

All spun and plied on my amazing Frankie. The fabulous Argonaut by @gemmabeamakes IG/etsy

I love spinning, but plying is absolutely my happy place. So relaxing and rhythmic 🧶
Let us see how much yarn I can get onto this bobbin...
Frankie does allow me to pack the yarn tightly, so maybe everything will fit🤞🏻
Frankie is made by the clever @gemmabeamakes (IG and Etsy)

Finally back to the sample for the Fingering version of the Coming Together Cardigan 💪🏻
This is me slowing down for the camera 🤷🏻
Knitting this colourway makes me SO happy. The colour pooling is perfection. Thank you @thediscreteunicorn for making this colourway for me 💕🧶

What are you doing this weekend? I hope you have a wonderful time, wherever you are 💕

Me? I am over here forcing my brain out of the (seemingly everlasting...) brain fog 🤓 using every tool I have at hand; laptop, tablet, print outs and handwritten notes.

Spinning project 🧶, started late January. Finished this week. Plied on my amazing Argonaut, Frankie 💞

And, yes, I love to add A LOT of twist to my yarn (see orange skein) and they all turn out perfectly balanced after a bath 💪🏻

Frankie is a proper worker 🥰 she allowed me to ply just over 200 grams in one day (almost 12 hours with just a few breaks) and there was still room on the bobbin 💪🏻
Don't ask how I managed to get the two spun bobbins THIS perfect 🧶

Working my way through a long to-do-list (both knitting and non-knitting related items) and dreaming about a new idea for knitting with beads 🧶🥰
Maybe I can get something done next month 🤔🤞🏻

I got the cutest "Box of Bits" (by @spinjones.bsky.social ) for my birthday last year. Thank you so much @thediscreteunicorn.bsky.social this was fun to spin 🧶
Obviously, it seems like I didn't take a photo of the content before spinning 🤷🏻🙃 yay, fibrobrain...
But I am very happy with the yarn 🥰

Knit a few stitches with me 🧶 Finally able to cross off some items on my to-do list, after a MASSIVE flare. Yay, for spoonie life 🙃
Working on the body of my sample for the Coming Together Cardigan, Fingering version, and snuggling under my Mini Fade Blanket (still reduced price the next 8-10 days)

Join me in one of my favorite activities - blocking.
This Lily Pad Shawl turned out so lovely. Knit in sparkly lace yarn, it weighs less than 150 grams and is huge.

Coming Together Cardigan, Fingering version 🧶
Getting SO close to being able to cast on my sample, using these beauties. Thank you @thediscreteunicorn.bsky.social for dyeing these - pure perfection.
Still have a couple of days of editing before I can dive in. After all... It is 20 sizes #knitting
February 23, 2025 at 6:26 PM
Doing all the calculations 🤓🧶 for a second edition of the Coming Together Cardigan. Will I be able to cast on the fingering version tomorrow?

What are you making/knitting this weekend?
February 21, 2025 at 6:51 PM
It is still all about all the blankets over here 🧶
Current WIP is the Mini Fade Blanket. The final pattern will include 2 options for a border. Both crochet and knit. Both are optional, as the blanket has a nice edge. Now it is just a matter of writing clear instructions🤓

Fixing a split garter stitch 🥰

Do you prefer to fix a mistake "the easy" way? Or do you prefer to rip back and reknit?

Now I just have to figure out how to get good photos for the pattern.
Any suggestions of how to photograph a fairly big blanket will be very much appreciated 💞
