Thank you 🫶

Picking up the #claireponcho once again. Delightful to knit a design that lets the handspun yarn shine.

Stashdown reminds me to use yarn swiftly after purchase. No option of buying more grey yarn, as it is discontinued. After 3 attempts I settled on the bind off in white.

To the well trained knitter's eye those teeny balls of yarn can only mean one thing. This knitter has engaged in the serious game of yarn chicken.

On the final repeat, then just armhole and neckline finishing. This will be my fourth summer knit by the fabulous Sari Nordlund

Thank you, I am rather obsessed with blocking my knits 🤣😇

The folded hem, the straps, the attached icord finish on the armholes & neckline, the lace, the drape. I couldn't be happier.

Thank you

A perfect way to start the day, sewing the hem on my first finished knit this holiday. Using 2ply lace weight 50% Tussah Silk, 50% Merino wool held double.

The moment you complete the armholes and join your top in the round is joyous. To a knitter it feels like the home straight. I love knitting this gorgeous top.

Knitting the neck edges and straps early = no yarn chicken as I opt for a longer body length. Final knit ready to finish and wear on holiday.

Do you know where this is available for purchase?

Some folk triple check travel plans, or spend time planning a holiday wardrobe. For me knitting plans always come first.

#claireponcho is a fingering weight poncho with lace border by Maria Muscarella using handspun yarn gifted to me.

A fabulous little stash buster of a #cowl. Using up my Sweet Georgia #leftoveryarn. Tumbled stone, Mellow, Patina and Birch colourways. Pattern is Allsorts by Annie Baker Designs.

My husband requested a repair to his running hat. Result = 2 knits that flew off the needles. Fjord hat by Saskie&co using Kambgarn &, Jacques Cousteau Hat by Lalla Pohjanpalo using Rico Design Creative Melange Aran Wonderball colourway 18.

Thank you🫶

The colours may feel like a bold choice, but they play together so well. Never questioned the need for the tassels to finish off the shawl. More is most definitely the way to go.

Cast on the Fjord hat by Saskie & co from her Arctic Knits book. I knitted this hat last year for my bestie, this time round I opted to use the darker colour as the background. Using Kambgarn which is sold in supermarkets in Iceland.

Yippee it's cast off day. #xylashawl by Natasja Hornby aka moonstruck-knits.

Daughter is out meeting friends so quickly blocking #KirkNessMitts. Pattern is by Andrea Williamson from Shetlland Wool Week Annual 2020 Volume 6.

Another project using @cascadeyarns - Cascade 220 Superwash Aran in Emerald this time. Instead of using two contrast colours I am using @rico_design Creative Melange Aran Wonderball colourway 22.

Only the daughter of a knitter could misinterpret a knitting design based on previous knits. The request is now for thicker fingerless mitts. #KirkNessMitts
@littlaislandstudio hits the spot perfectly.

#AncastaDress is such a well written pattern/gorgeous design that I completed it in 6 weeks. Cast on now & you could be wearing it by Christmas.

I am going to miss knitting the #AncastaDress and having gorgeous folds of cables on my lap as I knit.

Starting rpt 13 on the #AncastaDress time for a length check. It won't be as clingy when blocked, 2 rpts and the ribbing to go.

Delighted to #testknit #TwillyHat for @shadystroll. The folded slip stitch brim looks gorgeous in #tumbledstone BFL+Silk DK from #sweetgeorgiayarns

Having a little burst of pure joy test knitting for @shadystroll. The #TwillyHat is such a gorgeous design. The folded slip stitch brim looks gorgeous even whilst still on the needles.
