My favourite gloves that I've knitted for hands week on #ShowMeYourKnits. Knitted in Malabrigo sock - Solis colourway. These were a Christmas pressie for one of my granddaughters a few years ago. I love a bit of beading π.

For whites and brights week. Convertible Wool Big Cardigan by ToBeStudio knitted in Kauni Wool 8/2 Effektgarn. I call it my Covid Cardie as I started it the day before I tested positive back in '21. A large part of it was knitted whilst I was self isolating.

Thank you. I've put brioche off for years thinking it's too difficult but it's really not. I'm loving it π

A great way to stash bust
Thank you π
Thank you. It's a great way of using up all those bits and pieces that get leftover. The only downside is it took hours to sew in all the ends.
