The third clue is out, so Iβm sharing a pic of Clue 2.
I love it! Subtle it is not, in these colors anyway.

The weather is crappy so Iβm visiting their website. Check out the bargains. Friday the 13th sale. My go-to for yarn and accessories bistitchual.ca π¨π¦π§Ά
They support π¨π¦dyers.
Hoo-boy, we're officially playing yarn chicken.
3 rows of color work to go and hopefully 4 rows of ribbing...ha, I don't think we're winning this one. π€π€

Omg, finally finished a huge project at work. So relieved. So exhausted. So ready for a 3 day vacation with time for knitting. But that's next week, for now, we dance! #knitlife #knittersofbluesky

I adore my knitting bag (a gift from family in Japan). It's perfect. What's inside? 2 crochet hooks, 3 darning needles, 1 row counter, 2 pairs stitch stoppers, metal ring w/ stitch markers, ruler, 2 needle sizers, & 1 rubber thimble. What's in your kit? #knittersofbluesky #tricot #knitlife #knitting
Another blanket is complete! ππ³οΈβπ

And as always, I'm already lining up plans for my next project (the final cowl, for now). This will be for my little SIL. She's moving to a slightly colder part of the state - hard 2 do, our entire state is cold, but add a lake and voila, enjoy shoveling! #knitlife #tricot #knittersofbluesky #alpaca
On my needles: another cowl in my quest to decrease my stash and clothe all my friends in wool this winter. π It's coming along, quite please with all of the cowls I've done so far. Hoping to have this done by next weekend. #knitting #knitlife #knittersofbluesky #wool #tricot
Photo of a purple lace knitting project in process. Text below says βknitting lace is such an act of faith. You take a single strand of yarn, nearly a half mile long, and with a couple of skinny sticks, you knit and purl and slip and wrap and yarn over and knit together and make one left and right thousands and thousands of times, all the time hoping you have enough to finishβ¦ And you end up with a crumpled mess. Then you start pinning and stretching and blocking to force that yarn into submission, into something that looks beautiful and intricate and delicate, when itβs really based on strength. And it all starts with one really long piece of stringβ¦ And a lot of faith.β

Hereβs a post I made about #LaceKnitting several years ago that I thought appropriate this weekβs #ShowMeYourKnits prompt and the shawl that inspired it. π§Ά

A scarf of shown spread out on the beach at Anchorage Provincial Park, Grand Manan Island, New Brunswick, Canada. The rising tide almost touches the far end as the setting sun illuminates its leading edge. Made with Pokainu Yarn from www.woldten.com in a beautiful 100% natural Romney in Birch with two kettle dyed skeins in Honey Locust and Quarry Hill. Reminiscent of hand weaving techniques, this design embraces the art of optical illusion with increasing and decreasing slipped stitches in a grid like pattern interspersed with short row shapes that travel along the perimeter and follow the corners. Part of the evolution of my Tintype series of designs. #showmeyourknits #craftsky #art #knit #handknit #knitweardesign
