Storchle by Kate Davies. Couldn’t be bothered to do the actual stripes because - yuck, ends! - so I used a self striping yarn. Love the cheerfulness of this lil’ sweater!

Not my usual colours but this is so cheerful! ❤️🧶

So many layers of corruption.

I also finished the Eun Sweater (without splits) in time to wear on the day - because Show Me Your Knits, right?! 😂🧶

Yarn Festival time! My home town has a big yarn and fibre festival in May - and a day spent squishing yarn and talking to fellow knitters is never a bad day! Bought some (shown but not the full quantities) ordered some, and made new friends ❤️🧶

New FO ❤️ The Alchemy Sweater by Knit California in Broadway Merino Mohair in the colourway Ginger Spice. This was such a nice knit. Easy but engaging. Elegant but interesting. And the yarn is to die for 🧶❤️

For this week’s #showmeyourknits - colourwork. Goldenfern by Jennifer Steingass, Cedar Point by Espace Tricot, Cedar Brook by Tamy Gore, and Gardengate by Jennifer Steingass. I’m not great at it but it’s fun learning 🥰

This one was a joy to work on, with yarn sent to me (CaMaRose Snefnug Natur) by my wonderful MIL. Pattern is the Port Jacket by Ozetta.

My latest FO - the Golden Fern by Jennifer Steingass. I only used one CC instead of 2/3 and I made it longer and in a rustic wool - Wild Earth Yarns Aspen. I also knit the sleeves straighter as I don’t like tight cuffs generally. I’m very happy with it ❤️🧶

#showmeyourknits lace week. Not the best photo but this Camellia Dolman was a labour of love. Worn loads and so so pretty

Another one finished ❤️ It’s the Boxy by Joji Locatelli, which I’ve made twice before. This time I went off piste and did no decreases on the sleeves but added 15cm of broken rib to the cuffs. Now a bit I really love……picking the next cast on 🧶💕❤️

#fibreruarychallenge Boxy by Joji Locatelli. It’s a mohair mix and super soft ❤️

I got a new notions pouch too - sums it all up 🧶🧶🧶🧶😍😍😍😍

So. I went to have some blood tests and get my haircut yesterday and came home with yarn to knit the Goldenfern by Jen Steingass. Not sure how it happened but it’s definitely not my fault, right?! 🤦‍♀️

#showmeyourknits Some unusual cables on my Calla Sweater. I love this lily design so much I’ve made it twice!

There’s a theme here….knitting, while wearing my knits, scrolling knitting patterns and watching a knitting podcast. Addict much?!

Are you a monogamous knitter or a multiple WIP kind of knitter? I’m generally monogamous because I cast on things I can’t await to wear and want to finish them quickly. How about you?
