I am a healthcare tech person by day and an artist of all things fiber and glass by night. Also a passionate dog rescuer. Also a tree-hugging dirt worshipper. And proud of it.
Thank you! I loved watching the beauty emerge

Picture of a white lace shawl
I finally finished the #wildswanshawl for my future DIL. I used KnitPicks Gloss fingering in natural and also beaded it.
A labor of love. #knitting
Pretty. What’s the pattern?

When I am stressed about the world around me, I gravitate to extremely complex projects to center me. This is a wedding shawl for my lovely future daughter in law. #wildswanshawl #laceknitting #knitting #makersgonnamake

I am terrible at naming things, so no help there.
Resist!!

Says a lot about the character of the voters who put him in that White House to corrupt this nation.

I definitely printed this pattern out and I am using highlighter tape to track my rows. I am also using a lifeline after each chart change and every 5-10 rows and I put a stitch marker indicating each repeat. All of those things together help me to keep track of where I am.
12.02.2025 22:08 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Thank you! I am so looking forward to the magic of blocking. I am steaming it a bit as I go so I can see the pattern emerge.

12.02.2025 17:04 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0October. So I have time. I just know that life happens and also every row gets bigger and bigger. I will be beading it as well. So I am giving myself plenty of leeway.

12.02.2025 13:08 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I love that I can start something and if I decide it is not going to work I can frog it and reuse the yarn.
My husband is often aghast that I will knit 3/4 of a sweater and then take it apart if it doesn’t bring me joy. 🤣
What is the pattern? I am an experienced knitter, but I have not done an all over cable sweater. Any recommendations?
12.02.2025 13:05 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I do combination knitting when knitting flat. I learned that combo knitting messes me up in lace because of stitch orientation so that is an exception

I am 20 rows from finishing my #skykal #knitting. It is the Emma A from cocoknits. I don’t love the sleeve attachment so I am hoping I can do a bit of surgery to fix that. #knitsky
