A black and white photograph of downtown Lancaster, PA taken after a blizzard in the late 1800’s. The Watt and Shand building and the Soldier’s Monument are shown with many folks standing around in deep snow.

We’re so excited!

Close up of my left hand holding a knitting project on a pointy metal needle. The fabric is alternating stripes of grey and red with a geometric mosaic motif along one edge. It is vastly satisfying and simple to knit. There is a brick fireplace in the background with colorful twinkly lights on it and a shelf with pictures and a plant on it, too.

So much garter stitch this year!
Here’s a WIP I just picked up after a long break. This is Melissa Leapman’s ‘Honky Tonk’ shawl- featuring garter stripes and garter mosaic stitch borders. Nearly finished Chart B! #ShowUsYourKnits #GarterStitch

A close up of a pair of chopsticks holding a single piece of popcorn – there is a white bowl with popcorn in it in the foreground, and the background is a striped knitting project on the needles. you can just see the corner of a television set – we were watching ‘Chopped.’

I learned this *essential* knitting trick from @xandypeters.bsky.social

A hand holding a knitting project in the foreground with a distant triangle shaped pavilion on the horizon and a crowd of chairs and people arriving to an afternoon outdoor concert in between. Four smiling people holding knitting projects (obscured) and smiling while at an outdoor concert—seated in camp chairs on a green lawn and with dozens of people in the background.

Places you can knit—first free concert of the summer at Long’s Park in Lancaster! The band was ‘In the Pocket,’ and it was chilly but just right for knitting! #LancasterYarnShop #PlacesYouCanKnit #LiveMusic

A close up of several fingers of my left hand holding a knitting needle and with orange yarn wrapped around my index finger. I’m making a striped hat that is comprised of dark gray, light gray, mustard yellow and orange wool. The knitting needles are wooden and there is a yellow bulb stitch marker between two stitches on the previous row. You can see the inside and the outside of the hat because the pattern is clever.

This week’s prompt is WIPs: my most active current project: another ‘Musselburgh Hat’ designed by Ysolda Teague. This one is stripy and made with Lanas Light-it’s a good one! This is my ‘interstitial project;’ I’m fatigued, so I need easy knitting. #ShowUsYourKnits #Knitting #LancasterYarnShop

Here in Pennsylvania we still occasionally wear ‘socks’ made of colorful seeds and berries—but we’re very shy about it! #knitseeds #knitberries
