On this weekend I also started a new knitting project. It’s a #Cinemasweater by KutovaKika 💚.
I’m using Double Sunday yarn by SandnessGarn for it.

Well I managed to finish my KAL Mobius Strip Cowl in the allotted time.
The hardest part was Kitchener stitching the tube.
My arthritic hand coped...lol...but my thumb is kind of sore.

A finished Mobius Strip Cowl... coloured with purple mohair and grey fingering hand-dyed yarn.
Pattern with fair-isle zigzags, dots, and lines

An arthritis flare-up in my left hand, especially my thumb, had stopped me knitting for the past 5 weeks.
I started my cowl for Skein Yarn’s Accessories KAL on 1st June. The KAL finishes 31st July.
Last night I knitted a few rows without too much pain. Big question - can I do the remaining 49 rows then Kitchener the ends together by then?
(Yes, I'm using my beloved DPNs, I honestly don't like circular needles...lol).

The best way to celebrate knit and crochet in public day in Malta is sitting in the park in the shade of a huge tree accompanied by a cool breeze....
Happy #worldknitandcrochetinpublicday 🧶

Where are you knitting or crocheting in public?

For those people who don't have instagram here are the details.

The Secret Stash-busting Sock-a-Long is starting in January 2025! Organised by 111Windmills.

The idea is to pick sock yarns or sock sets from your stash, wrap them up so each one is a secret and then randomly pick one of your secret yarns each month for a new sock cast on! You can pair them with the patterns of your choice!

The Sock-a-Long will happen on Instagram and on the free Discord channel (link below). The thread is already up and running with people sharing and chatting all things socks!!

You can pick as many yarns as you like from your stash (or shop new yarns)

To get started, pick the sock sets or sock yarn, and wrap each one separately. You can do the same with your knitting patterns if you like!
Each month (or at whatever time frame you think you can manage) pick out your next sock set and pattern and knit through them all while sharing and supporting fellow knitters!

OPTIONS:
- bundle the yarns SEPARATELY from the patterns, and get a mystery pattern/yarn combo
- bundle the yarns TOGETHER with your chosen pattern for that yarn
- wrap the yarns ONLY, and select the pattern at the time of getting your mystery yarn
- any other combo you prefer

Discord link: https://discord.com/invite/NYdU6n7N35?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaaZCVWtMsb--GomC3vBFmf9Yo9ERsNSpsHbyJP7kIgBulhA7wTzDJe5iVk_aem_njSI2imztfAKn_X349WXJQ

I've usually avoided them because I'm bnot into the usual reds, pink, often in them. But this one had me intrigued.

I'm up to Day 4!

Plus all these wonderful dyers have included yarn in the magical adventure!
