Couldn't

Hand knit towy
#ShowMeYourKnitting Sort of Square Stuffy - loosely based on this pattern: www.yarnspirations.com/en-ca/produc... Took just over an hour (do I need to put a face on it?)

Having gone off the Rez & riffed merrily along, I shouldn't be surprised I have no idea when to set sleeve sts aside...
What me worry?
'Once more unto the breach, dear!'
(I promise to be more judicious about sleeve length this time.)
PurlSoho.com free pattern "Nature's Palette" an Ombre strip knit throw. Yarn used is fingering Quill. Patterns Eva and No-frills cardigan by PetiteKnit are available to buy on Ravelry.com

Next: frankensteining DIY ombre stripe top-down shawl collar cardigan using #PurlSoho Quill dbl'd (to mix colors)
🤔
No Frills Cardigan to start collar/back yoke
Then Eva for elegant inset sleeve, front incrs.
May not separate pieces to keep striping sane
Busy using up my yarn stash making dog sweaters.
Oscar the (mostly) chihuahua appreciates it...and he looks so handsome in his new duds.

Lessons learned w/18/36NM Colourmart cashmere+top down patterns
Shoulder Width RELAXES wider w/o real seams!
Sleeves (rows) droop A LOT! leave sleeve seams unfinished, ribbing easy to 🐸 til washed
Ribbing almost hopeless
Applies to 50-50 cott-cash yarn, too!

Shortened sleeves & re-seamed for TRex length
On to buttons:
Dark or light? Hmmmmm🤔
Dark more wintery?
Thoughts?
Dark=brown, light=creamy ivory
I do hate resewing buttons, so I'll mull a while
Feel free to advise, I'd be grateful for thoughts

No likeE
Open seams, 🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸 tubular bind offs&ribbing to @ 5"
Re-knit/bind off w/a looser option, maybe EZimmerman's sewn or Jeny's stretchy BO
🤗I tailor used, store-bought knits, too🤗
It's fun!
A hand-knit gray stuffed bunny reclines amongst neutral-colored pillows. He is smiling and smiling and sporting a jaunty beige ribbon.
A hand-knitted gray stuffed bunny shows off his fluffy off-white tail.
A turquoise blue hand-knit bear with colorful striped body and limbs relaxes against some pillows. He sports a crooked smile and a light blue necktie.
Took a break from my sweater knitting fixation to knit my first two stuffed animals for my…grandniece and nephew? (How can I have grands?)

Sorry. Grouched @ a 'mean' LYS bc
I've wandered so far off this pattern😬, so here are
some fav online yarn sources (& they're v. nice)

Blue green cabled cardigan in progress, back and both fronts unfinished

When teaching myself to knit, I asked a LYS clerk @ using diff yarn, gauge and mods on pattern
"I can tell you'll be a problem knitter," she said.
She also asked if I'd bought enough to justify her time
I had but she wasn't wrong, just snide
Ignored her.
🙄WMW?

'What Me Worry' gave way to the prospect of dreaded way-too-short cardigan FO
Unpicked tubular bind off
will knit ribbing once I get a sense of how long I need the damn thing to be. Am whacking away on Front Right ATM.
I feel 😇
A pair of hand knit socks with a beige background colour and brown bats all over. The toes and cuffs are also brown.
A pair of knitted mittens with a whale breaching on the back of the mitten, and a school of fish on the palm side. There are stars under a latvian braid on the cuff of each mitten. The background colour of the mittens is blue with yellow for the details.
A knitted cowl showing an owl with art nouveau style framing. It has a white background colour and a burgundy contrasting colour.
SB wearing a black knitted jumper with bats on a white band around the yoke
Slightly late for #ShowMeYourKnitting but I have plenty for animals! 🧶

Proof of life: progress
I'll finish back flat before shoulders/fronts each to seam
Oiled yarn and my knitting=wonky work
Washing/blocking will sort out😶🌫️
Cables slow yet satisfying, a kind of nirvana achieved by
knitting them

I'm stumped
M1R/L & M1Rp/Lp look horrendous
Claw your eyes out bad
Have frogged start 3x
Pattern gives no instruction, just abbrevs.
Using this from PetiteKnit which is neat as a pin in that top-dn pattern
Weirdly conspicuous and awkward for me😩

Traveler's Shell vs. Churchmouse Modern Wrapper
Mod. Wrapper a better FO to wear
Resizing v. easy
I've knit 12+ versions/resized w/diff.yarn/needles/gauge
I'll use MW to make TS type vesty things w/o sleeves
Can do TS pockets & garter pattern if I want.
This knitter's FO adds cabled shoulder seam and brings diamonds up so points meet either side of 'seam." Also cables on top of sleeve continue, meet at arm pit join to go down so elegantly!

Proof of life after watching #Sinners
I've watched #kdrama series #Kingdom, gorier & explicit, but took place over weeks, zombies were inert in daylight, so a relief.
Sinners took place in one 'cursed' 24-hr period
Still shook, frankly. Wow.
