Shock, horror. I have knitted 6 rows of the ribbing in the round and I think it's twisted. This is not the first time this has happened. Taking my last attempt at this pattern into account it's not even the 6th. Maybe the 10th. It's been such a lovely day knitting too, and listening to this month's book club book, #AGreatReckoning by #LouisePenny (A Shetland Noir 2026 Author). But I might have to frog the lot. Ho hum. #ColdHeartsCowl #knitting #colourwork #CaitlinHunter
Progress on my longterm project, the fairisle cardigan. I am looking forward to wearing it soon but I don't want it to be finished as it is so much fun to knit.

A few days before christmas I got to the point on my longterm project that I feared a bit: cutting the front steek. But it went so well! I learned that steeking can be intimidating but with a good choice of yarn (I used some shetland yarn) the steek is very safe and secure and it's somehow fun.

One down, took almost a whole ball of yarn. They're perfectly dense and warm, though, these will be great when Norwegian winter hits 🀩

Nearly at the finishing stage with the Peggy vest top (pattern by Susan Crawford). It's at the wee weird thing stage pre-steeking the neck and arm holes. Excited to get this done! #knitting #colourwork #vintageKnitting #KnittersOfMastodon

Hurry up and dry already!!

Mostly blocked to pin out the collar. My first raglan (a green one) has a collar that is a bit tight (probably needs more blocking).

My second (a navy one) has a collar that’s waaaay too big (probably a cow neck by design?).

Hopefully this one will come out okay and won’t constantly touch my neck πŸ˜… considering that the rest of the sweater is a bit big for me.

Starting my first #colourwork socks and boy oh boy is it hard to get the tension of my floats right πŸ˜… #knitting #knittedsocks #sockknitting
So! Finally finished my travelling project (outer part), now with smaller needles inside. (Following the instructions but with different colours - the shetland woolweek (forgot the year)) \o/ #knitting #colourwork #travel

When there's not a lot of time to knit, use heavier gauge yarn. πŸ’‘

Really liking these. Good practise for colourwork. Happy with the red-cream switch. According to the pattern the primary colour should be red.
