I just love how puffy these sleeves are! 😊

With one project done, I may start a new one! What do you think, something with this deep purple Texelana yarn, perhaps?

Making your own is a great way to make your own combinations! I usually do use fish in some of them, but baked egg, tofu, and vegetables also make for lovely sushi πŸ˜ƒ

The start of a toe-up sock on a circular needle, together with the ball of yarn. It has red, green, and white as well as a bit of glitter. There is also a finished sock and a tiny circular needle. Everything is shown on a light wooden background.

I've made progress on my knitting, with one sleeve at 30 rounds and the other at 25. I'm alternating between the two sleeves to avoid 2nd sleeve syndrome and ensure they're nearly finished by the time I reach the cuffs πŸ˜ƒ

This lace project has entered "ramen noodle territory." Despite 2.5 hours of travel time, I only completed 8 rows, which was a tad disappointing πŸ™„

The mosaic shawl is blocking, and I've got feedback from my technical editor. Next, I'll do the photo shoot and start the test knit, with Patrons getting first access to testing spots! πŸ˜ƒ

As you can see, the short row part of the 2nd sleeve is now also done. So now it's a matter of knitting in the round until both sleeves are of sufficient length to start the cuffs! πŸ˜ƒ
