A pair of socks knit up in a gorgeous blue teal color that fades from dark at the toes to light at the cuffs.

A pair of undyed socks on a pair of sock blockers.

I've always wanted to knit an item then dip dye it but I held back because who wants to knit an entire piece using undyed yarn. So when I bought a 🧦 knitting machine, I knew I would finally be able to try this idea that had been brewing in my head for years. The results are exactly what I imagined!

Yarn skeins of bright reds and pinks lined up with a sample knit of self-striping yarn laid on top.

A knit sample of a self-striping yarn laid in front of piles of the same color in wound skein form. There are also matching minis beside the larger skeins.

Are you ready to cast on a new project for Superbowl Sunday? Personally I'm loving the excuse to stay put and get a LOT of knitting done. Knit 🧦

Thanks! I'm loving how it's turning out.

A crochet chevron blanket in a variety of blues plus a few others. Sitting next to the blanket are a few small scraps of yarn waiting their turn to be crocheted into the blanket.

I have been feeling like a good crochet project lately and I dove right into this linen stitch chevron blanket. I pulled all my blue partial skeins plus a variety of colors that look good with them and I'm randomly rotating them throughout this blanket.

A finished Musselburgh Hat, photographed on a wood table. The one end of the hat is a solid gray and the rest is self-striping yarn . The color sequence of the self-striping yarn is gray, grayish white, beige/brown, beigeish white. Four views of how to wear the hat - the gray cap with a turned up brim of stripes, a striped cap with a turned up brim of stripes, and both versions with no turned up brim - making a longer slouchy hat.

Finished the Musselburgh Hat. 🧶 is @makerwool.bsky.social Feline yarn set. Really happy how it turned out. Gift for a man at my mom’s church - he watches out and helps her and other older women.

A knit hat made using a neutral brown color yarn. It has gorgeous cables and a folded over brim.

The Winter Sage Hat is now available. I was able to test knit this beautiful pattern for Briana Arlene. A perfect gift knit (like a teacher!!) I knit it using MakerWool DK.

20 Days Until Christmas and the cats will have a knit stocking this year!! They've both already slept on it so I take that as their approval. I used Briana Arlene's Cat Hat pattern chart and adjusted to make it a stocking. I think you could do the same idea for a sport weight 🧦

A textured orange sweater. The sleeve is still on the needles. Oh so close to being complete.

Color Development skeins are true one-of-a-kinds (or two depending). They are skeins that I was testing color combos, striping patterns and how colors play together. They'll still be beautiful self-striping skeins 🧦 but will be unique from everyone else's! Once a color is gone, it's gone. #knitsky
