It was a downright balmy 40 degrees when I woke up today so naturally my thoughts turn to summer knits. Agrihan has a bunch of lace and deep Vs front and back so it's basically like wearing air conditioning. #showmeyourknits lace week continues! #knitsky #knitting 🧶

It's clear in looking through my FO pictures that I love projects with eye catching lace details! This pattern is the Mustard Flower Tee, and I made it from Knit Picks CotLin yarn (pretty much my favorite warm weather yarn). Lace for this week's #showmeyourknits ♥️ #knitting #knitsky

Yay! The #showmeyourknits prompt for this week is lace! I love lace. It's so romantic and dreamy and it just clicks in my brain in a very pleasing way. This is the Auri Tee, inspired by The Slow Regard of Silent Things. #knitsky #knitting 🧶

#showmeyourknits this week is WIP themed! This is the cuff of the Straightforward Mitts that I'm making my SIL. It's her second pair because my niece took the first one (so you know they're good). But mostly it's a picture of Poppy in her morning sun spot. #knitting #knitsky #dogsky #rescuedogs

More bright pink, fluffy yarn for #showmeyourknits love week! This pattern is the Bun Break Sweater- it has thumb holes, a choice of a turtleneck or crew neck, is size inclusive and knitting it will probably make you pretty happy. It made me pretty happy anyway! #knitsky #knitting 🧶

This is the Half and Half Cowl! One side has hearts and the other side has stars. It's a front/back situation, not a double knit inside-out situation. It's a pretty fun knit, and perfect for this week's #showmeyourknits theme of hearts/pink/red! #knitsky #knitting 🧶

Fluffy pink yarn can't solve many problems, but it can solve a few and that's not nothing. The pattern is Winter Market Mitts, and it knits up fast which is good because I need an instant gratification knit about now. So much! #showmeyourknits in pink this week! #knitsky #knitting 🧶

More hearts for #showmeyourknits Valentine's week! I wear fingerless gloves 98% of the time in winter, and I modified this mitten pattern (the Valentine Mittens pattern, sadly no longer available) to be fingerless. I gave these pairs away and now must make more! #knitsky 🧶 #knitting

This week's #showmeyourknits prompt is hearts, and because I am nothing if not middle-aged, I had to *look at my Rav projects* to remember that I had designed both a hat AND a cowl with hearts. Hearts, and cupcakes! How could I forget that?? 😂 Pattern = The Way to My Heart. #knitting #knitsky 🧶

Sock Hands! This pattern is just the thing for leftover self-striping sock yarn. It comes in 4 sizes for kids and adults, the largest size uses about 120 yards of yarn, and it's free. Stripe week for #showmeyourknits continues! www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... #knitsky #knitting 🧶
