Finished my #BatternbergBalaclava from @meganfaithmakes 🌟 I absolutely love the colourway and am searching to find a natural yarn alternative. Can't wait to make another for my partner! 🧶

I'm looking for a natural yarn that's exactly the same as this acrylic one - preferably aran/chunky - merino or bamboo or just something soft - any UK indie dyers or wool shops 🧶 thanks!! 🌟

This is my first time and I have no idea what's happening 🤣 thankfully, the pattern I'm using comes with a tutorial but I don't fully understand how to stop all the yarn tangling. I have seen someone who kept all their "bobbins" in a long but thin basket which helped keep colours organised

A pair of socks I knitted up for my granny 🌟 she's the queen of knitting and ended up showing them off to the rest of the family and all her W.I friends 💁‍♂️ she also refuses to wear them because they're "too lovely"

Incredible! I saw an article where they cut the yarn at the back and I really don't want to buy another hank of yarn just for 3 gauge swatches 😅😅

For more context it's the Curio Collar by Lydia Morrow (whatlydiamade)

I'm getting ready to knit a collar and the pattern is knitted with 3 different size needles with 3 different gauges. I've never done gauge swatches and I'm nervous - any tips? Can I reuse the yarn from my gauge swatches? When gauging in the round, do I need to cut the floats at the back? Please help

A pair of hand knitted socks lay atop a black and white checked rug. The green is a mixture of colours that make it look like a spring meadow full of small flowers

Fresh off the block!! A lovely pair of cozy socks! My first time knitting with 2 strands of yarn and my first time using mohair - it's great!!!

Yarn - pigment.and.ply Waterhouse in 75/25 sock and Drops Kids-Silk in Parrot Green
Pattern - summer.lee.knits Classic DK Sock
