Thanks! It is subtle, but very elegant. It's actually the first sweater I ever made for myself.

Thank you! You'll have to let us know if you decide to make it!

Thank you, Liv! It was a super fun challenge.

This is the Perihelion Shawl by @deunynknits.bsky.social! It’s probably the most challenging and beautiful shawl I’ve ever made and I’ll treasure it forever.

It’s the Erla DK Sweater pattern by Valentina Bogdanova!

Rest up and feel better! ❤️‍🩹

This is hands down my most worn shawl. Elegant and so cozy.

Something a little different 🐾✨

This is so sweet! The little smile!

A hand knit cowl in linen stitch featuring variegated black, red, and white yarn being modeled by the knitter.

Thank you! I was so skeptical about how the pooling would look and almost frogged it, but I’m glad I stuck with it. It actually looks fantastic worn.

Knitted linen stitch in a wool/cotton blend 🧶

Thank you! For this pattern in particular, I was able to carry each color through most of the work. But I also don’t mind weaving in ends!

Thank you, you’re so kind!

Thank you!

College kickers must have a stronger mental fortitude than a surgeon.

Omg cashmere 😍 What a lucky SIL!

Lovely! The stitch definition with this yarn is so nice. I’m sad because the tariff nonsense has made the full color selection harder to come by in the US 😞

The green and blue hat are both knit from De Rerum Natura Gilliatt which is in the running for my favorite yarn of all time. It's light, has an incredible color selection, and it wears like iron. I need to make a sweater out of it.

Hand knit in a variety of stitch patterns, all wool 🧶

Also a fitting entry for this week’s #showmeyourknits prompt!

Decorative Knots Decorative Knots. Learn how to braid, tie a Monkey's Fist, Chain Sinnet, Celtic Knot and a Turk's Head (Woggle) - and many more decorative knots.

The pattern isn't available anymore, sadly, but it would be really easy to replicate. Just make many many many MANY feet of I-cord and look at some decorative knot patterns like these: www.animatedknots.com/decorative-k...

Thank you! It was incredibly tedious. This was before I learned that I-cord makers were a thing 😅
