I didn't do the contrast yarn on the cuff because I didn't really like the way it looked but by the time I'd come to that conclusion it was too late and I wasn't going to pull it out again! #knitting #showmeyourwork #WIP #SkyKnits

I think maybe that my concentration isn't back to normal yet, I knit the rib and about 20 rounds of my new jumper before I realised it was so big I could use it as a tent. I was knitting the smallest size so I've pulled it out and I'm starting again with this one. #knitting #skyknits

I pulled out my knitting, I just wasn't enjoying it plus the choice of yarn made it very hard to see if I'd got the pattern right and I suspect I hadn't. My concentration has left the building, now looking for a new project #SkyKnits #Knitting #Yarn #KnittersOfBlueSky

Woman wearing hand knit cardigan.

Woman wearing hand knit cardigan.

My first time knitting a cardigan. Very tedious, and I will be open about my dislike for sewing on sleeves. However, I'm incredibly happy with the final result!

Pattern is www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

Yarn is my own hand dyed DK weight Hawthorn.

I’ve previously shared the WIP of this 1960s jumper that I made my sister, so I thought I’d share a pic of the FO for sweater week #showmeyourknits Luckily I got it finished well before the cold weather ended and it’s been keeping her toasty warm for weeks #vintageyarn #skyknits 🧶 #1960s

A blue child’s jumper lies on a cream painted table. The jumper is knit from vintage 1970s, blue variegated yarn which makes a random pattern of several shades of blue and white. The ribbing at the waist, cuffs and neckline are all a darker blue as is a stocking stitch detail across the shoulder

I had to rack my brain for #showmeyourknits #garterstitch week! It took me while to think of something, then I realised I had a jumper I made this year that qualified. 1980s #vintagepattern for a child’s jumper made from 70s #vintageyarn with a stocking stitch shoulder saddle #skyknits 🧶

The display form is showing a turquoise blue cowl.

The bottom edge of the cowl has garter stitch and pivot details that moves into stockinette with a dropped st detail.  Welting and a simple textured body make up the bulk of the cowl.  It is finished with eyelets and I-cord.

The Funnel Cowl is a quick knit in a DK weight yarn. Pick something soft and warm as it sits close to your skin. This one was knit with a merino/yak blend from my stash.

Squishy, cozy blankets made with Bernath Blanket acrylic yarn so no one has an allergic reaction. Some have yarn held double for extra coziness.
No fancy stitches here, I'm just a beginner. 🧶
