Wooden mushroom by LSLWOODWORKS on Etsy held in front of a wooden table and stone wall

Darning mushroom holding purple and green knit sock in position for sewing in yarn ends. Needle pushed through and being held in front of a wooden table by a woman's hand.

The problem: I lost my darning mushroom

The solution: Etsy mushroom decor

It's solid, gorgeous, and has the perfect little dip on top to make stitching easy. 🥰🥰

The new problem: I have to sew in a year's worth of sock ends...🧶

Yarn hive mind: assemble!

Anyone know where to source similar yarn? 🧶 I love the variegation and speckles and joy. Reverse image search didn't come up with anything...

Model in grey knit dress with her back to the camera, standing in front of a white door. Bow at the nape of her neck made from a draped white fabric. Grace dress by Auguste Knit https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/grace-dress-6

I also love the thought of making this bow out of an old bridesmaid dress. Truly the only thing they're good for 🤣

Model in grey knit sweater dress posing in front of teal slatted wall. Knitting pattern is SineQuaNon https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sinequanon

I'm obsessed with SineQuaNon by Concept Creative...but with 2.5mm needles there's no way I'll have it done for THIS fall

I meant for me - but these are super cute! Will save for a future project 😊

Two balls of sock yarn. One in shades of grey, the other mostly purple and blue jewel tones. Sitting on a wooden table with a lamp and books behind.

I have 800 m of sock yarn looking to become a shawl - show me your favorite patterns! I prefer a crescent or asymmetrical triangle.

Lace? Short row? Stripes? Mosaic?

Gorgeous! Can't wait for the pattern

I recently inherited it and it brings me so much joy 🤩

I wonder if she was trying to learn that way...she was quite the prolific knitter. But family doesn't remember seeing her knit Portuguese style
