Finn would like me to stop knitting now.

Ginger cat loafed on my lap. Barely visible underneath him is my knitting project. The chart is under his butt. In the background is a second ginger cat who is wisely ignoring my knitting.

When we engage in fiber arts we are creating something, but we’re also participating in historic traditions tens of thousands of years old. You are not only making art for your soul and for future generations, you are embodying the work of our ancestors. - the woven road; photo of two old hands holding needles and wool

Spending the afternoon in my favourite knitting circle 🤍

I finished the front of my sweater!

Lil black dog under the cabled front of a black sweater. The dog is lying on a plaid blanket on a green couch.

Made some sweater progress these two days off.

Grey sweater in progress. The left side is starting to show the intricate cabling.

Three more squares completed for this year’s blanket. I love these colours #knitting #knittersofmastodon #handmade

Behold! The perfect "project bag" for a project with a cone of yarn. Pattern fits perfectly. Has a handle. And a snap tight cat proof lid. (Two gallon bucket)

#knitting #knittersOfMastodon

Two gallon white plastic tub. In the tub are pattern pages and a knitting work in progress. The yarn is grey. Not visible under the wip is the large cone of yarn. It is all sitting on a wooden floor.

finally had the heart to pick back up my current knitting project, a pair of joggers

(was on pause because I couldn't bear the thought of frogging it for a 2nd time)

the good news is 3rd time is really the charm for me, by this point in a project I have a great sense of what tension I need to keep, what type of needles work best with the yarn, and am extra super duper focused on counting stitches 😅

Hi #knittersofmastodon I'm looking for a kind of shawl that stays on my narrow shoulders; someone recommended faroese shawls. Any suggestions for faroese shawl patterns?

Arbeit für diese Woche geschafft und das hoffe ich bei diesem Projekt auch. Sooooo langweilig zu stricken, aber der Janker wird schön, das sieht man schon.

Why is provisional cast on so fucking hard?

I think this is exactly what she wanted. Blocked out well. Now to weave the ends in and get in the mail at some point this week.

Selfie of me in my bathroom mirror trying on the black lace cardigan that I made for my mother. My Domo shirt is visible. Sleeves on the sweater come to right above the elbow.

The neck has been steeked and the ribbing band added! A good weekend's work and I'm desperate to carry on! It'll need to wait until I'm not at work, the gym, or doing life's maintenance tasks #knitting #KnittersOfMastodon #fairIsleKnitting

Shows a black vest top (tank top or sweater vest) with three horizontal striped flower style motifs. The bottom is blue, the centre is pink, and the top is yellow. The neck is a high crew neck with ribbing. The sleeves are still knitted together. It's lying in a white table lit by daylight.

My mom might not actually receive it on her birthday (which is Monday) but it is done. I'm quite pleased.

Black lacy short sleeved sweater blocking on a light green towel. Ends have not been woven in.

Nearly at the finishing stage with the Peggy vest top (pattern by Susan Crawford). It's at the wee weird thing stage pre-steeking the neck and arm holes. Excited to get this done! #knitting #colourwork #vintageKnitting #KnittersOfMastodon

Shows a sleeveless black knitted top with three flower-like motif stripes. The bottom is blue, the middle is pink, and the top is yellow. The flowers are surrounded by a green zigzag border. It's a weird shape because the neck and sleeves still need to be cut out. It's lying on a white table.

Unabashedly asking for praise and acknowledgement: look at what I'm knitting! Isn't it pretty? It's turning out so well!

Pattern: Field Cardigan by Camilla Vad
Yarn: Malabrigo Rios in Yerba

Work in progress Field Cardigan pattern by Camilla Vad in Yerba, a light olive color, in Malabrigo Rios on a gray comforter; low lighting because it's bedtime

I'm thinking some fairly aggressive blocking will sort the border out. Glad I went down two needle sizes. Onward to the sleeves. Tomorrow. #knitting #knittersOfMastodon
