I really want to love this more than I am as it works up.
I'm really hoping like, more progress and blocking works miracles.
It's the same yarn as the pattern, but idk, it looks SO messy and blaaaah to me. Maybe I'm just too close to it. And maybe the yarn will really look great after blocking.
Sometimes you just need to stop and give time to yourself. This weekend has been about getting in touch with my creative side. 3 new squares for my blanket and raspberry brownies. #knitting#crafts#baking#handmade
It’s all over the internet, it’s incoherent misogyny! I dyed a new batch, and there are many other powerful pinks and purples in stock.

My next project in the 'buildabeautifulboxofsocks24' from https://www.ashandevedesigns.com has arrived. So pretty.
Perfect for this time of the year - winter officially arrives this Saturday.
Hello Fediverse Knitters & Crocheters who use screen readers! Is there anything you wish designers knew when trying to make PDF knitting/crochet patterns accessible other than "make sure to have instructions in both written and charted format"?
Let me know in the comments so I can make the most of my InDesign accessibility settings for you!
With Myfanwy's recent move into politics, on top of her demanding roles in art, film & travelogue, we are happy to welcome Esme to the team in Scotland to spread the load.
Please... say hello to the delightful and excellent Esme!
🐕🦺🐕🦺🐕🦺 Don't miss the wonderful tale <heh heh> of Wally, the rescued Tibetan mastiff, especially part 2/3rd way through when she removes Wally's pelt. Incredible!!
I wonder if it's the same for sheep, alpacas, llamas, goats, etc. What a great dog!
Yesterday I started knitting again after years of not knitting a single stitch. I forgot how much I love it. 😁🧶
All the stitches came back to me as soon as I picked the needles up again. I didn't have to look up how to do any of it, I guess it must be muscle memory. 👀 :knitting: :ablobcatknitsweats:
“Turquoise Sea”. I dyed plenty of yarn to bring to @thewoolmontyshow, buying in extra to make sure I have an amazing selection. The shop is stocked to bursting with beautiful colours so now is a great time to look if you won’t be at the show.

Okay, this might actually help me feel less bad about the yarn used for swatching... I know you can rip it and use it in the project... but this seems so nice!
Today I found out that both of my applications to test a #knitting pattern were accepted... after many times applying for things and not being accepted...
So I guess all my other WIP will be on hold and until June 20th I will be knitting both a pair of colourwork unicorn mittens and a cardigan... See images.
Doable, right? Maybe I should book a holiday from my two little kids and my work... haha.
I'm knitting a roly poly from a pattern. I deviated from the pattern when knitting the antennae, going from a photograph and using shaping techniques I've learned over the years. Here it is posing with a centipede plush. #knitting#isopod#WIP
