Colourwork knitted jumper, Hand knitted, Indie Dyed Yarn, Work in progress
Halfway through this pattern, Dark Academia, using Skeinhawk Yarns hand dyed wool! Loving knitting this so far. Even when I had to unpick 5000 stitches. #knitting #wool #goth #indiedyedyarn #colourwork #woolcraft
A swatch consisting of teal yarn base that is broken by bright (think almost Fluro) pink and yellow yarn. Where the colour changes you get a stylised cat head.
FOYAL has started. I finished my swatch and am onto the jumper. I’m making the Simple Sinister Sweater for my little human.
The colour work here is done back to front (main colour to contrast) so the cats will be sharper in the finished one.

I usually only do #colourwork #stranded knits using 2 colours so thought I would ramp it up a bit and throw in a 3rd 🫣 #weeklyknit
Close-up of a section of a knitted jumper, in purple acrylic. It has 2x2 ribbing at the bottom, and a bold colourwork pattern in bright pink. There are long fleur de lys and dots at the bottom, and above them are some huge pink roses.
Current WIP is the Floral Fallal by Vanessa Ewing. I don't love bottom-up, but it's worth it for these gorgeous roses

Finished UkeeKnits Toqueflake pattern made with @sweetpaprikadesigns.com yarn (and how-to videos!). My first stranded colourwork project - so delighted 🍄🧙♀️ #knitsky #knitting #yarncraft #colourwork
A grey plastic washing up bowl with some berry coloured water in it along with two colourwork handknit mittens in purple and white yarn. The mittens are soaking to try to remove excess dye.
Two colourwork handknit mittens in what was white and purple yarn. The white is now a pale pink. They're laid out on a bright green towel.
These are the mittens currently soaking. I put them in about an hour ago and that's the colour of the water after two prior washes. It's hard to see due to the green towel and awful lighting, but the white yarn is now all pale pink. 🧶

I finally finished my West of the Moon mittens. Now I can only pray I can remove the purple dye that ran. I washed them twice in cool water and it looked like a glass of Ribena. 😓 Hopefully an overnight soak will draw out most of the remaining excess dye. 🧶

Newly knitted jumper lying on a wooden floor. The jumper is oatmeal coloured with a patterned yoke and cuffs - made up of a repeating motif of dark green leaves.
I made a thing! #colourwork #knitting
Hand-knitted scarf made up of seven blocks. Four blocks have a green background with white leaf-like shapes, while three blocks have a white background with green leaf-like shapes.

An in progress photo of a color work sweater that is missing the sleeves hung against a wall. It features a light purple neckline. The color work looks like undulating curves going into a darker purple. It also features green dots at the lower bodice underneath the curves.
A screenshot of the yarn I used. As follows: the green is cascade 220 sport in primavera. The light purple is quince and co chickadee in the color mystic violet. The darker purple is cascade 220 sport in the color Bordeaux.
My Rhinebeck sweater wip - this is the Ooey Gooey sweater by Andrea Mowry. It may it may or may not be based on the pokemon, Goomy 😅 🧶 #showmeyourknits #colorwork #colourwork #pokemon #goomy

A patchwork shawl knit end to end, with different colourwork patterns in combinations of blue, green, white, and gold.
A close up of the shawl.
Really enjoyed knitting this patchwork shawl, great for leftovers 🧶 www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... #showmeyourknits #knitting #knitsky #colorwork #colourwork #strandedknitting It uses both stranded knitting and intarsia (which I usually hate, but will make exceptions for must-have patterns).
Yoke complete! Loving this pattern. Time to start the body!

A lined, knitted wrist warmer in purple and light grey checked colour work.
The same wrist warmer as in the previous picture, held open to show the lining.
I just knitted a little wrist warmer. Just one. Why?, you may ask. I'm trying some techniques out for a cowl pattern I'm working on, and thought a mini version like this would be excellent to see if it would work. Cute, isn't it?

A navy cowl with grey rib and colourwork goats in pink and teal sits flat on a marble table.
#showmeyourknits is cowls - I don't wear a lot of cowls, but I knit this one, based on Kate Davies goats of Inversnaid hat. I wear it camping. When we hiked the West Highland Way in Scotland we saw the goats of Inversnaid and they were huge! #knitsky #colourwork #stranded 🧶
A thick, warm cowl, double knit so that there are two versions. This is the "light side" where the background is lighter than the patterns. The colours are burgundy tones. The edges are created with openwork stitches.
Welcome to the dark side of the cowl. Beautiful in a different way.
#showmeyourknits guest host @samantha-west.bsky.social has asked for #cowls this week.
My latest and most favourite cowl, two for the price of one!

A picture of a tattoo on a forearm. The forearm is rested on white kitchen roll on a black arm rest. The tattoo is of Crash Bandicoot spinning with his tongue out, with a splash of water colour
We did this spinning Crash for Paul today!! I would love to book in more game characters 🥹🥹

I am holding up a Fair Isle swatch that I’m currently knitting. I’m testing out colours to see about what ones will work best. I’m not sure I’ve got them all right just yet. The pattern is called the Sea Faerdy Vest by Gudrun Johnston.
I’ve cast on for my Sea Faerdy vest swatch. Glad to be swatching because I’m not convinced I’ve got the colours quite right just yet, but I’ll get there! Painting with yarn is always so uplifting 🧶
Pattern is by Gudrun Johnston.

This is one of my all time favourite #knit #cardigans. The pattern is Stripes Gone Crazy by Alfa Knits on #Ravelry and the yarn is the Big Rock Candy Mountain sock yarn kit and Natural by Fergus Yarn Co.

Shows a sleeveless black knitted top with three flower-like motif stripes. The bottom is blue, the middle is pink, and the top is yellow. The flowers are surrounded by a green zigzag border. It's a weird shape because the neck and sleeves still need to be cut out. It's lying on a white table.
Nearly at the finishing stage with the Peggy vest top (pattern by Susan Crawford). It's at the wee weird thing stage pre-steeking the neck and arm holes. Excited to get this done! #knitting #colourwork #vintageKnitting #ShetlandKnitting
