That is a great idea! I thought about doing some swatching but in the end I just focused on finishing my WIPs, but next time I'll take advice!

Somedays (or weeks) I get really bored with my WIPs and are desperate to cast something on. At the same time I'm stressed by my WIPs and want to finish them. So, tonight I'm trying to finish my march Striped socks. Are you ever in such a mood and what do you do?

Yes they are! They are so easy to knit too and are double layered so perfect for in the house. I did make a few modifications to the pattern. Mainly using Jody's magic cast on and do less rounds on the heel and more on the foot.

Those sounds great too! I love hats for gifts too. Haven't done any mitts or cowls. Only knitting my first pair of mittens at the moment and it is so fun!

Finished my 5th pair of the Doble Tøfler pattern my Sandnes garn. My boyfriend is so stoked and doesn't want to take them off. I highly recommend this pattern for gift knits. What is your favourite pattern for gift knitting? 🧢

Aw thank you! It's definitely going to be between 1 and 2

Thank you! Yes I didn't think of that but yeah makes sense why 3 seems a bit off as a pairing.

04.02.2025 19:43 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Thank you! I also think that 1 or 2 would be the nicest.

I am so in the mood to cast on the Alma mittens from Maja Γ…kerstrΓΆm but can't decide on the colour combination. Which one do you think I should pick? 🧢

Ravelry

There are so many options and depends on what you like the feel of and how sensitive you are. Do you have a pattern in mind that you want to knit? It might be easiest to use the recommended yarn if it's available to you. Also, on ravelry.com you can find a huge amount of knitting patterns

Absolutely agree! Wool is much nicer and easier to knit with. & Welcome to the knitting community πŸ§ΆπŸ€—

I know the feeling. For me a low stakes no pressure knit with something that just excites me helps. I hope you'll get your knitting mojo back πŸ€—

I highly recommend it! They're really engaging and fun to knit. Another designer that has some great patterns is Cinthia Vallet.

January Snowdonia Socks

These socks embody the memories I made with my sister on a holiday to Eryri/Snowdonia in Wales.

What is your favourite of cooperating memories into your knits?
