Greetings from Aberdeen, on the way to Shetland! Posting from the ferry at stupid o'clock, can't wait to get to Lerwick! #travel #Scotland #Shetland

So, for #ShowMeYourKnits this week, here's my current WIP, headed for the finish line. The amazing cables are by @babycocktails.bsky.social #knitting #knitsky 🧶

More #showmeyourknits , this is the second cardigan I knit last year, and my first ever steeked garment! #knitting #knitsky 🧶

This week's #showmeyourknits is cardigans! I knit two last year; this is the Riggies Cardi by Gudrun Johnston, fun to knit, comfy and IT HAS POCKETS. #knitting #knitsky 🧶

Himself got a bit over-zealous with the tree trimming today, so I had to rescue these poor blossoms. They do make the house smell amazing. #bloomscrolling #garden #flowers #spring #lilacs

This week's #showmeyourknits is for #LYSDay , so here is my home away from home, Gosh Yarn It! in Kingston, PA. Funny story, I bought the yarn for this sweater at the height of the pandemic in 2020; Jill, the shop owner, kindly set it out on her front porch for me to pick up! I love my LYS. 🧶

For this week's #showmeyourknits, gray! Another favorite color of mine. Patterns by @norahgn.bsky.social , Laura Nelkin, ragingpurlwind, @babycocktails.bsky.social #knitting #knitsky 🧶

For this week's #showmeyourknits... I don't knit baby things very often as they tend to not be well received, but this was a solid winner. Made for a coworker's baby shower. #knitting #knitsky 🧶

Spring is slowly making its way into Northeast PA... #trees #wildflowers #weeds #roses

For this week's #showmeyourknits, my favorite, colorwork! Here are a few projects from the past year. #knitting #yarn 🧶

Tulips for the first day of Spring! #Flowers #garden #spring 🌱

Warm, wet and windy. Spring has arrived in Northeast Pennsylvania. #Flowers #garden #spring 🌱

For this week's #ShowMeYourKnits - Green edition. Green is my favorite color, and I have made a lot of green things, so here are some random selections. Patterns and yarn are in ALT text.

FO Friday! Here is my completed Haslock, all set to travel with me to Shetland in June. Pattern is Haslock by Gudrun Johnston Yarn is Jamieson's Shetland Spindrift Kit purchased from The Woolly Thistle #knitting #knitsky #yarn #fairisle #Shetland

Over halfway done with my Haslock Cowl; I can't stop knitting this, it's way too much fun! #knitting #knitsky #yarn 🧶

For this week's #showmeyourknits, socks! My absolute favorite thing to knit. I have made dozens of pairs and always have one on the needles. #knitting #knitsky 🧶

Finished! I'm really happy with the fit. The basic pattern is from Ann Budd's The Knitter's Handy Book of Sweater Patterns, yarn is The Croft Aran from West Yorkshire Spinners. And I actually finished it while it's still cold enough to wear it! #knitting #knitsky #sweater #yarn

For #ShowMeYourKnits this week, a favorite lace top for summer in classic Feather and Fan. Pattern is the Mermaid Top by ragingpurlwind Yarn is a discontinued 100%linen from Berroco #knitting #knitsky #yarn #lace
