I adapted a chart I found on ravelry by ConceptCreative. I changed up the shape a bit and the boarder cables.

I love cables. A few knits here. A few purls there. A wee twist. And voila SKULL.

Merman Tales...sweater inspired by a colourway that was inspired by a book. Whispers of the Deep by Emma Hamm
I spent a bit of time with graph paper, math and years of knitting under my belt to design this one of a kind raglan base sweater. #knitsky

Trying to smash my actual physical TBR, but they are precious. ๐Ÿ–ค

Do kids still wrap their texts ๐Ÿ“š in paper bags? Well my generation did with gusto. You doodled, stickered and just made them uniquely yours. Pretty and protected.

Sunny day today and it is illuminating my mannequin and highlighting the amazing pattern work in this shawl.
Rich rainbow of cottons.

Pattern is Flagstaff by Dee O'Keefe and it is gorgeous.

Yarn is called Enchanted Forest by @monsooncalamity.bsky.social ๐Ÿงถ

I'm on a sock kick lately...had some leftovers from previous fingerless mittens. I love this colourway, Fluorescent Fall by Arcane Fibre Works ๐Ÿงฆ๐Ÿงถ
