Love the pattern on these! Is it colorwork in 1x1?

MORE COLOR!! ๐Ÿงถ
When I heard of dopamine dressing I was so happy, because at the time it felt like the entire internet was beige. I am always wearing colors. Like this fuchsia cumulus blouse I finished this week. #knitsky #knitting #petiteknit

Thank you! Iโ€™ve made some pattern notes in my projects on Ravelry. Not a pattern, but if you know how to crochet you can probably figure it out.

NANAS SLIPPERS ๐Ÿงถ
My grandmother was always knitting and crocheting for the family and for charity.

My aunt is wearing these slippers every day, but the last pair (top one) is starting to wear thin I offered to make new ones. Double Drops Fabel sock yarn and hook 4,0mm.

Lets do it! A Knitalong to get the community going here on @bsky.app!

Start something new (or pick up an old project) using blue yarn, any shade and use the #SkyKAL hashtag to post progress or finished projects. We will let it roll until the end of February. To keep things simple. See commentsโ€ฆ

Nothing. I would be to overwhelmed. But love it as a visual!

Love the color! I have a similar color on the needles and now you reminded me to finish it!! Gorgeous!

Wow! Itโ€™s stunning! Better not show this to hubby. He keeps putting in orders for new sweaters. I wouldnโ€™t mind if he was another size than XL, with extra long sleeves and torso. ๐Ÿ˜œ

Vร…GA CARDIGAN ๐Ÿงถ
I applied to test knit this piece of gorgeousness this autumn. Fingering wool yarn and so many fun stitches and techniques.

Itโ€™s like the ultimate office sweater. Perfect with black slacks and heels. Also suitable in a more dressy office.

Thank you! So did the recipients as they ended up as โ€œhis&hers socksโ€

Thanks. I was thinking of doing them scrambled like yours, but daughter (recipient) argued for a color blocked one. Next one is going to get scrambled.

Love it! It reminds me of the crocheted blanket I finished this summer. I really want to make another one. But the workโ€ฆ

Thank you! I love them too! I was worries that they would be โ€œtoo muchโ€. But I decided that everyone need some glam in their lives!

Thank you! I was through my entire stash before settling on these. Everyone needs a little sparkle in these times. Right?

REORGANIZATION ๐Ÿงถ
We are re-organizing at work. Seems like everybody is switching place. As per usual I am overthinking things and my hobby is turning into a source of calm and focus on what is important.

Like selecting buttons for my cardigan #aprilcardigan. #knitsky #knitting

USING SCRAPS ๐Ÿงถ
I made a pair of socks (right) from #langyarnsupersoxx and then I was stuck with 30 odd grams of yarn. Now I am using them to make cuffs on my basic navy #opal4ply socks (left). Pretty neat, right? #knitsky #knitting #sockknitting

01.02.2025 15:02 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 19    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I am knitting a pair of socks that kind of gives the same vibeโ€ฆ love the long cuff, I might use that for my next pair!

Having a weekend house with a fireplace is seriously cutting into my knitting time. I just repiled the remaining dry wood to be able to fit the new. Which is my job for the afternoon.

And for the summer: build a proper wood storage. Tarp isnโ€™t very prettyโ€ฆ

I donโ€™t look at my knitting. That helpsโ€ฆ

Cold house - check. Weโ€™re not big on fingerless gloves. But we do use mittens often. Perhaps a pair of thin ones? Thanks!

Now that you remind meโ€ฆ Iโ€™ve made the Minipetini socks. Perhaps that will work with this yarn too?
