Moving to cast off Italian/tubular style. Nearly done, a bit worried it might be a hair too tall, but I suppose it can fold and slouch a bit on my friend. π€· We'll see how blocking goes. #knittingmysteries #knitlife #knittingnerd #tricot #fiberartist #fiberlove #wool
Currently on my needles: purple alpaca fiber creating "fern fingerless gloves". On my lap? Two passed out puggle KNITpanions. My heart is full. π₯° #knittingnerd #knitwear #tricot #puggles #pug #beagle #pugglesofbluesky #alpaca
An American Girl Doll wearing a winter hat with red earflaps, an orange brim, a yellow top, and a pom at the top, reminiscent of the hat Jayne Cobb wears in the TV show Firefly.
I was in a special kind of mood yesterday... ended up binge-watching Firefly and knitting a Jayne hat for my doll!

My absolute favorite part of a top down sock with a heel flap is the inside of the gusset pickups. Iβm perpetually in awe of whomever figured out how to do this centuries ago. Itβs so elegantly simple and beautiful. #KnittingNerd #HandknitSocks #Knitting π§Ά
Iβm delighted to discover that knitting is canonical to the Elder Scrolls universe: Sigrid, the wife of the blacksmith in Riverwood, had a conversation with her daughter that specifically mentioned knitting. #skyrim #teslore #elderscrolls #knitting #videogamelore #knittingnerd
Truth! #KnittingNerd
Finished a lovely leafy scarf for a dear friend.
Started rehearsals for the next play; fascinating & often very moving. Rehearsals are amazing work & swing between intense discussions about the darkness in men's souls, and gleefully childish hilarity. Loving it! #Knitting #Theatre #KnittingNerd
#notetoself it is not appropriate to interrupt the meeting to ask the lady sitting at the other end of the table if you can examine the #stitchpattern in her #knitsweater.
