Taking the dog out = no coat but yes to handknits around here!

Busted out the winter Birks and my wool handknits.

I am one with you, Jen. I was worn out with the deluge of 'grammers and the hashtag onslaught.
I bet I've posted this one 2K times: (yeah, I'm "that chick.")

A few months ago, I said I was going to start filling my wardrobe with handknits.

🧶 I made a crop top sweater. It went great.
🧥 Moved on to a cardigan. Almost done with the sleeves, & it's great.
🧦 Halfway through my first pair of colorwork socks

A reasonable next step might be 🧵

Cats and dogs are great appreciators of any household handknits. 🧶

I acknowledge and support feline ownership of all handknits, I just want to finish them first! 😸

Only 2 more sleeps! See you in Monkstown on Saturday. Start your Christmas shopping, with art, crafts, handknits, books, indoor plants, cakes and home produce! For children, there will be toys, lucky dip, magic show, and arts ‘n’ crafts activities. Then relax over lunch/coffee in The Friendly Café.

Twas ever thus.
Cats and dogs are very enthusiastic appreciators of handknits. 🧶 I am working on a pair of Xmas blankets for my CA girls, the four-legged nieces.
It's really funny when they drag them around the house to follow the sun for naps or bedtime.

I made these in 2013, one of my favorite handknits

One of the only reasons I like having ten (!!!) towel hangers in my bathroom is for when I wash a bunch of stuff that's air dry only (i.e. handknits, wool-blend socks, etc.). There's not a lot of space in our laundry cubby when there's 3 people's clothes drying over the weekend.

Heartbreaking. ❤️‍🩹 I wish you the best, they are hard to get rid of. Freeze as much as you can. Look through all your handknits and stash.

Normally I seperate all my handknits out and either hand wash or use the wool cycle on my machine, never had a problem that way. But sometimes something sneaks in...

Out come the handknits.

Socks (especially handknitted) AND slippers ... or completely barefoot. Totally depends on season 😁

Don't expect my #SecretSantaAoNZ to knit me socks ... I KNOW how long that takes 🤪 so washing liquid for handknits could be an option ... SOAK would be lovely if that's an idea for you
Another question for #SecretSantaAoNZ
While you're here, what about the size of your head for hats, hands for gloves, clothing size for anything else you might like.

We'll be at the Anna Templeton Centre's Christmas Tea and Sale this weekend with our kid's books and letterpress printed cards.

Look at all the great craftspeople we'll be sharing the first floor with; and there will be even more on the floors above. It's a sale that's not to be missed!

Cutting into handknits is a little terrifying, but I needed a larger neck for sensory reasons.

Another 30 rows down, so I’m now at 90. More hearts ahead, which I really look forward to knitting. I’m on day 13 and the hosts are up to day 19. I just keep chipping away. With rainy days on the horizon, maybe I will get more of this cozy project completed. 🧶

Tonight I ordered a pound of instant yeast and a bottle of no-rinse wash for handknits ... I am hobbymaxxing
