Hiya #knitsky: does anyone know of folks in the US selling minis of lace-weight Suri Alpaca yarn? My dream is an indie dyer whoโ€™s putting together bundles of coordinated colors but Iโ€™m also happy to buy one at a time.

โœถ Test knitters needed! โœถ

I'm looking for test knitters for a new design - High Falls Pullover. This sport weight sweater is worked top-down with modified drop shoulder shaping and a simple allover lace motif. See the application linked in my bio for more details!

Oooh I am getting closer to this step on mine. For other patterns Iโ€™ve been able to find people knitting the same thing on YouTube, which has been encouraging/helpful for tricky bits. Youโ€™ve got this! Also yours is gorgeous so far; canโ€™t wait to see the finished jacket!

Holding a giant soft pile of fluff in my arms, and watching it grow with each stitch: I mean I still go to actual therapy but this is pretty great.

Was gifted this set of yarn hand-dyed with natural colors this winter; I love it so much that Iโ€™m having a hard time deciding how to use it.

A large green skein of yarn, next to a mini pink/peach skein, next to a small ball of reddish-orange yarn. All three sit atop a copy of a spiral-bound Sock Squad 2025 journal, open to the page for February.

Thick, squishy, neon muppet socks to bring joy and whimsy and support and softnessโ€”all things I seem to need now more than everโ€”from the ground up.
