I may have leveled my knitting skill up slightly.

I dropped a stitch on this brioche pattern... And I might* have fixed it.

*I won't know for sure until I do the next row... And it's 1 AM so I'm not doing it now! That would be asking for more trouble!

Fixed or not, I learned something. ๐Ÿ˜†

I finished my My Little Yarnicorn Winter Solstice countdown shawl and I probably should block it and stuff but I'm too cosy. ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒˆ

Picture doesn't begin to cover how large and heavy this thing is. It's probably heavier than the sweater I'm wearing right now!

Nouvel essai de point #brioche, 48 mailles c'est un peu juste pour moi et c'est fort dommage, la plupart des modรจles sont sur des multiples de 12... Faudra รฉlargir pendant le blocage !

(@knitting thanks for your help ! It works, but it's a bit tight though...)

#yarnuary "favourite colourway"

I'm a huge fan of rainbow mini gradient sets, such as my current work in progress! Though "mini" here refers only to the mini skeins used to make this: the full piece is huge and I've still got several minis to go (each of those tiles is a square foot).

Yarn: My Little Yarnicorn Winter Solstice countdown set, from Teal Torch Knits https://tealtorchknits.com/

Pattern: Modified version of Iridian by Yeonee Makes (came with the countdown), but I subbed in a brioche pattern from Madrona Cowl by Pdxknitterati and one I made up because I'd rather do brioche patterns than count.

About 1 year ago, I experimented with #briocheknitting because, well, it's all the rage now and it honestly looks great. After initial success, everything stopped making sense and I couldn't #knit anything in that style anymore. So, I quit.
Today, I discovered "brioche #knitting for dummies": the #fishermansrib !
Wish I found out sooner. Now I can pick up those patterns I had put away in frustration!

Some of my favourite colours of this set are coming up soon!

I'm up to day 15 of 21 in this solstice countdown. Had to take a break because it turns out knitting it on a shorter cable wasn't great for my hands, but after a rest and an ergonomic fix I'm back at it!

Yarn: ๐Ÿฆ„ My Little Yarnicorn Winter Solstice countdown from Teal Torch Knits

Pattern: ๐ŸŒˆ modified Iridian by Yeonee Makes. I made the brioche more complicated because I like brioche patterning and dislike counting. The fancier of the two stitch patterns is from the Madrona Cowl by Pdxknitterati

Colour!

This is the My Little Yarnicorn Winter Solstice countdown from Teal Torch Knits and it's well named. I (intentionally) didn't try to finish it as I opened the yarns so I'm on day 9 or so in this picture.

It's also spectacular under black light.

After a lot of bad language, my first brioche project is done. I donโ€™t understand this technique well enough to work down to a mistake and work back up, so there was lots of ripping out. Iโ€™m happy with the result. The pattern is flashpoint by Knittingapprentice on Ravelry. #knitting #briocheknitting

If you look at my social media my colour palette looks really muted because of all the pictures of my black dog and the greyscale photos of my mom's sock (to preserve a little bit of surprise).

But I should probably mention that the other thing on my needles is very much not grey.

This is My Little Yarnicorn Winter Solstice countdown (up to day 4), though I went a bit off script from the included pattern. Zoom in to see the adorable Yarnicorn stitch marker. ๐Ÿฉท
