A guide to knitting (i.pinimg.com)
Seems to be put together with images from The 4-H Knitting Handbook.
What sources of information (e.g. books with patterns, yarn ranking sites, how-to-guides) do you use for knitting? (kbin.melroy.org)
While I am asking about what knitting resources you use I might as well plug this thread asking for knitting resources for beginners....
Socks are coming along (i.postimg.cc)
Slow but steady progress on my socks...
WIP Wednesday (i.postimg.cc)
Needed a new car knitting project as my Kelowna sweater is too big now to work on comfortably. So I cast on some socks for me....
Recording glove patterns to save Scottish Sanquhar designs (www.bbc.com)
Made this a while ago for a friend's pooch (lemmy.world)
[WIP] Kelowna sweater progress (i.postimg.cc)
Decided to get sleeve island out of the way. I’m worried I won’t have enough yarn even though I’m on gauge. I am using different yarn than the pattern and it’s definitely not the bulkiest bulky yarn I’ve ever used....
Finally finished these socks (i.postimg.cc)
The socks with my first ever fish lips kiss heel are done! They even got a spin through the washer and dryer because our dog spilled milk on them (yes our dog lol)....
Spring/Summer Light Hoodie (lemmy.world)
Just finished this. Took about a month. The pattern is free!...
WIP Thursday: Kelowna sweater (i.postimg.cc)
This week got away from me, I spent most of today thinking it was Wednesday. I started this sweater on Saturday. Thankfully we were in a city visiting family, as I’d overlooked the fact that this pattern uses 12mm needles for the body (the largest I have is 8mm). I was able to run to the store and pick some up right away....
My son is due in a month or so, and I just finished the hat he'll wear home from the hospital! (lemm.ee)
The pattern is this one! www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/baby-bear-hat-8...
Really thought I could save that sleeve (sopuli.xyz)
[CABLES] My most special knitted mitts (i.imgur.com)
(Please excuse the fuzz and pilling, these are OLD)...
Anyone else make spreadsheets for their projects? (i.imgur.com)
Started a shawl in late January, and it needs to be finished by July. Which, for most people I’m sure that’s nothing but I am a very slow knitter, really!...
I had so much analysis paralysis adapting a pattern for this cardigan. I'm happy with the result but mostly relieved that it's done (sopuli.xyz)
I just finished this cardigan and because it was a gift I tried really hard to make it look tidy....
Finally finished the shawls for my book club friends; the same pattern in their favorite colors (lemmy.world)
Sock update: let there be heels (postimg.cc)
First attempt at the fish lips kiss heel. I got stalled on these socks for a couple weeks because no matter how many times I read the instructions it didn’t make any sense to me. Plus I don’t get much time to knit most days, usually just 10-15 minutes while I’m waiting for my kid to get out of school....
<p>ChatGP can write knitting patterns</p>
Maybe I’m the only one who didn’t know this, but it only just occurred to me to try - and it worked!...
Finished my first child sweater (i.imgur.com)
Basic ranglan sweater. I used a cake of self-striping yarn for the body and finished off the sleeves with a spare skein in mustard. The pattern was very fun and easy to follow, I’m looking forward to knit more kid’s projects because they’re so quick xD...
Does anyone know the name of these type of buttons? (startrek.website)
I’m knitting an Andrea Mowry shawl and I love the buttons she uses for this pattern. I just don’t know the name/style of these particular buttons.

Shaming myself into knitting faster, let's see if that works (i.imgur.com)
I was on such a sock knitting THING last year and have really lost my mojo lately....
WIP Wednesday - Hope to finish just in time for summer (lemmy.world)

Knitting community theme for March is...CABLES!
If there’s one design feature that is quintessentially knitting, it’s got to be cables! Chonky ones, intricate ones, symmetrical ones or weird ones, almost every knitter has tried them and found out the biggest secret of our craft: cables are a lot easier than they look 🤫...
"You don't need to bring your knitting, we're just going to the shop" (i.imgur.com)
This meme brought to you by my spiralling anxiety and some slight bickering when I packed a sock project into the car last night despite it being dark already 😅...
