There’s something so satisfying about how it pops out and magically works. I love it!!

Me too! @measuredandslow.bsky.social has an eye for picking out the perfect colors. Those strawberries were the cutest.

Totally!! I feel like I haven’t knitted in a month. It definitely gives me a further appreciation of needlework hobbies. Lots of dedication.

Congrats!! It looks incredible and will keep you very warm. That’s the thing I love about knitting, you always get better the more you do. Can’t wait to see what you knit up next!!

Thank you!! Yeah, I kind of regret it, but also it would’ve been challenging figuring out how long to make it.

The backside of a cream colored knitted cardigan with pink ribbing on the edges. The back has an in progress brown tree with cut outs for a koala with a baby on its back. 

The cardigan has a picture of the overall design in the top left corner.

It’s been too long since I’ve given you an update on the koala cardigan that I’m knitting for my niece.

I decided to forgo intarsia and opted to duplicate stitch the design. It’s taking ages, but it’s so rewarding seeing the little koala details show up 🧢

Incredible work!! This looks so cozy. I really love your color choices. The subtle pop of orange color really draws the eye in.

Love it! The first one looks like he caught a big fish to show off.

I love this!! I really miss the heyday of blogs and cool internet treasures like this. Thanks for sharing the steps.

It looks delightful! The best jumpers are 80% merino and 20% swear words. Glad you made it off of sleeve island.

I love a squishy knit with a pop of color! I’m so ready to knit so many hats this season. 🧢

A garage with concrete flooring and plywood walls. In the middle of the frame is a L-shaped wooden shelving frame made of 2x4s.

My self drafted plans for the shelves. The plans have an overview of what the finished product will look like, a spot for inventory needed, and an overview of each shelf.

I’ve taken the plunge and decided to build my own shelves in the garage. I’ve got to cut and lay down the OSB for the shelves and they are complete. They aren’t very level in some spots but it’s going to work out great.

Oh that’s sick. Orange is one of my faves. Great choice!

Incredible choice of colors! I would never have thought to pair the variegated orange with pink and black. It turned out so good!!

These look so good! That yarn seems like it really makes some strong socks.

Oof. That’s rough. Apple has fallen off with this update. I’m glad they synergized the name to keep up with the current year though.

I’ve always installed the public beta on release but this is the first year that I have skipped it. I’m not a fan of the glass look and was underwhelmed with the new features.

Look at this!! Excellent work on this sweater. The stitch definition is off the charts. This looks super cozy!!

It looks epic!! You did a great job the yoke and sleeve piece too. The red really pops off that navy blue.

That’s high praise for the LG then. It keeps you coming back. I’ve never bought a high-end TV, so I’ve been reading reviews like crazy before I buy.

How are you liking the C3? I’m in the market for a new TV and can’t decide between Sony and LG.

Ouch! I know how it feels to have a phantom WIP around that takes forever to finish. I’m sorry about the emergencies. Hope everything is going okay now.
