Decided to pause my Ranunculus and give it a quick block so I could check the neck opening and my gauge. I don’t want as wide a neck as some of my previous Ranunculi. I’m holding Kelbourne Woolens Camper doubled. Loving the yarn! 🧶#knitsky

I knit a lot of lace on the train over the years commuting to work. I’ll share my most ambition lace project, Evenstar, by Susan Pandorf. Beautiful laceweight merino wool with a beaded edge. Blocked it was 60” across. Not very wearable and a struggle to photograph but I love it. 🧶#showusyourknits

Having 3 projects in progress is my sweet spot. So I’m very happy with the colors & projects in my basket of WIPS #showusyourknits I have a pair of scrappy house socks. My first Musselburgh Hat. And a newly cast on Ranunculus sweater in a gorgeous deep green heathered wool. 🧶

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Officially finished my Rows and Arrows Cowl for the #SkyKAL The yarns were truly delightful to knit with. My first time using Kelbourne Woolens Germantown (the deep indigo blue). I definitely see a sweater in my future. And the lighter contrast is a very pretty hand dyed by Cape May Fiber Co. 🧶

Unreal. The US government is dumping Asian and African families and children in random countries that they have no connection to. Dumping, not "deporting." Deportation implies the return of a person to their home country. This is treating people like toxic waste. www.cbsnews.com/news/us-depo...

This extra cold winter prompted me to cast on a new pair of shorty house socks. I’ve always loved a scrappy project. I’m using a leftover plate of plotulopi, a reclaimed ball of sock yarn and some added bits mohair/silk for the heel and toes. Working the gusset on dpns. 🧶#knitsky #ScrapAlong2025

I really do feel like I’m losing my mind.

I think I’m finally going to cast on a Musselburgh Hat. Of course, I have to do it my way.🤞I want to use these 2 skeins of Paton’s sock yarn but only have 1 ball of this Gedifra alpaca/silk/merino. So I’ll likely run out at some point and have to improvise with another fluffy yarn. Will it work? 🧶
