Same here! I really liked the Rye Light socks for a first pattern, by Tin Can Knits — it’s free!

Go for it! Socks are one of my favorite projects. Once you get going, it’s hard to stop! Plus they are great for those special skeins!

Well hello! 🤗 I had so much fun at this event! Hope you’ve been able to craft up a storm since ☺️

Hat crowns are my fave! Testing call coming soon! #knithat #knitsky #knitting #knit #testknit

Saturday is for stitching! #showmeyourknits #knitsky #knit #knitting #sockknitting

Thank you so much. Some of my faves in this one!

And thank you!

Couldn’t agree more! I feel so lucky to have knitting! ♥️

You are right, it is 100%! 😆

Absolutely correct!! 💜

Hello knitters on flashes! I’m a indie knitwear designer living in Michigan, USA.

I think about knitting 95% of the time, anyone out there like me? 😆

Finally finished these after waiting for toes for well over a year, oops. 😅 No pattern, just an uneven rib and doing whatever I felt like for a comfort project.

I am stupidly excited about this! #knitting #knitsky

Thank you!! 😊

I vended my first show this past weekend! It was so wonderful! I met so many lovely people. I left feeling more inspired than ever! 🥰 #knitsky #knitting #knitweardesign #smallbusiness #knit #makersmarket

You could try a lace cowl instead!

Thanks Erin! I don’t know what to expect but being surrounded by yarn can’t be bad, right?

The tiny spinning wheel! 😍 have a great show!

Behind the scenes on my first vending event happening tomorrow! Eek! #knitting #knitsky #showmeyourknits #knit

This one is slow going but it’s going to be so worth it!

That edge tho 😍

🥹 thank you so much! I might love details too much 😆

Ooh, I love it too! It’s fun to watch the body shape up but the crown is even more exciting! 😍

😆 well, I’ve certainly been to there!

Love the process video and selfish knit! And learning to steek! I haven’t done that myself 😅

Thanks Erin! Good to see you here!

Thank you so much! 💙

🥰🥰🥰 yes! It is fate! I’m honored you’ve been thinking about it and honored you will use that precious yak blend! Please make sure to tag me in any photos because I’d love to see your hat!

Thank you! I just love the crown. ☺️

A blue ribbed hand knit hat sits flat next to a Lego dog.

A blue hand knit hat crown is shown. Crown design creates a flower.

4 handknit hats are shown. 3 complete, 1 in process. Yarn is in the background for another hat. Hats are gray, blue, purple, and orange. Yarn waiting is pink.

Hard to believe it’s almost been a year since I released Bloomtrail!

Love this that so much, I made 5. I think it’s time for some new ones. My littles are growing out of theirs!
