This sweater is my own design and itโ€™s called Fauna. Itโ€™s only available in Finnish for now. ๐Ÿ˜Š

In the video, you can see a quick clip of how I cast on stitches. There are many ways to do this. How do you do yours? #sullavikat #knittingtips #knitting ๐Ÿงถ #knitsky

Iโ€™m not a super-fast knitter myself, as you can see in the picture. My tension is quite tight, even though Iโ€™ve knitted a lot. Itโ€™s important to know your own knitting style. I know the fabric will even out during finishing, so I donโ€™t let it slow me down.

Letโ€™s start the week by knitting dreams into every stitch. Dreams arenโ€™t just for daydreaming โ€“ theyโ€™re plans waiting to come true. With small steps, gently but determinedly, they become reality. โœจ

This is called Totta vai tarua, which loosely translates to Fact or Fiction in English. If I remember correctly, this is the second yoke sweater I designed.

I mainly design socks, though my recent posts have featured a lot of sweaters. Another Woman was originally designed for a magazine, inspired by Birger Kaipiainen.

This is also great! Descriptive and sounds good. In Finnish, it could be Liehuva harja or Lentรคvรค harja. ๐ŸŽ

Fun! The exact same suggestion came up on Instagram in Finnish. In Finnish, this would be โ€œtรถltti.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜Š

Hereโ€™s something I havenโ€™t released a pattern for yet! Its working name has been Winter Races, but maybe it deserves a better, horse-inspired name. Any suggestions? ๐ŸŽโ„๏ธ

Hereโ€™s a short video showing how even a small change in material affects the size of your knit. Plus, a little tip for unraveling! ๐Ÿ˜Š This is how I like to do it! ๐Ÿค“๐Ÿงถ

This scatterbrain accidentally deleted the previous post about the Tsemppisocks... Clearly, I still need some practice with this platform! ๐Ÿ˜…

But the important thing isโ€”these beauties are now available in English! ๐ŸŽ‰โœจ
