Did I show you my #longpaddockjumper by Vera Marcu?
I was one of the lucky few to test knit it, as part of the @thebendigoproject. #thebendigoproject

Very excited to have finished my test knit for Vera Marcu, and to be able to dive into another project, this time a @jojilocatelli tshirt.

My friend @lovembymichelle & I were just talking about making our next knitted project super colourful because our current projects are grey or pale colour. Therefore I'd like to make a notions makers appreciation post. Here is to all of you who are crucial to knitting construction and organisation.

Knit Nite, with my #testknit for @veralovesknotting and my summer top for @yarnswithalix's challenge.
First fitting for the #longpaddocksweater and it looks just right πŸ’ͺβœŒοΈπŸ§ΆπŸ’›
Much gushing about the Alpaca from @adagiomills & the sheen of the @madelinetosh pashmina.

Clearly my mind is elsewhere, as I was talking to Chloe @woolandworks just last week. 🫣
Thanks for sharing your stash with us!

Finished my 1st tshirt in the summer top challenge by @yarnswithalix, so cast on 2nd top in @madelinetosh pashmina. Love the raglan lines.
Cute @fripandbib #ringostitchmarkers in @louielolayarns.bsky.social 'doxies on the run'.
