  1. Finished the Malabrigo KAL Orienta shawl last week. Didn’t need another shawl. But when I saw the pattern, I couldn’t resist, knowing I had just the right yarn in my stash. It’s sock yarn but knitted on 4 mm needles, so it has lovely drape without being too loose. Very pleased with the result. #Knitting #HandKnit

  3. It's done! Last night I finished knitting the Midwest Moonlight scarf for my MIL. I washed it and blocked it, and it should (hopefully) be fully dry in a day or so.

    This is my second time making this pattern by Ivy Bigelow, and I love how the blocks are angled in different directions. 🧶

  5. I'm making some progress on the Midwest Moonlight scarf for my MIL. This photo was taken last week, when I was at around the two-thirds marker. I'm now around 4/5 of the way through.🧶

  7. One of our best selling designs--we make these pennanular brooches in sterling, hearty-but-light aluminium and copper. They are inspired by old Norse and Pictish pins. This is the sterling version--delicate and perfect for those lace shawls you're knitting. I use mine to close cardigans I've knitted (can't be bothered with buttonholes!) #Knitting #fibreart #handknit #handmake #shawlpin

  8. Despite multiple issues with the way the pattern was written, I'm really happy with these finished socks! They're thick, squishy, and warm. (And yes, the legs are the same length when one sock isn't turned sideways.)

  10. Off the needles! Same yarn but a different pattern for each sock. Both knit toe up but a different heal construction. #knitting #handmade #SockYarn #sockknitting #handknit #knittingmastodon #knit

  11. Finished #knitting this Flax sweater. Started #spinning the yarn for it in August last year. One single was a multicoloured bamboo/merino, the other one a solid blue Shetland, twined together into a lovely soft fingering yarn. #handspinning #handknit

  13. @Herbivore Oh my gosh, I’m stunned to learn how this industry operates. Now I think back to the one handknitted Norwegian sweater my grand folks brought me age 12 from their travels there. I loved that sweater so much, with angora yarn knit into the yoke design. Never had something angora again but now what I know about this, I definitely will avoid it.

  17. Well I just finished #knitting a shawl. I decided 2025 will be the year I knit anything except shawls! I want to improve my skills in knitting #vests #sweaters #socks #fingerlessmitts and #hats . Give me a shout if you have a favourite #knittingpattern in those categories. #knitting_inspiration #recommendations #handmade #handknit

  19. Hello Everyone, I'm Monika and I'm new here! I learned to knit when I was little but it's only since 2017 that I've been knitting intensely...every day! Not a day without knitting, it's become a therapy for me. I started knitting socks, scarves and since 1 year I've also been knitting sweaters. Knitting makes me very happy! Welcome to my knitting world! 🙋🏻‍♀️

  20. The purple and blue blanket and tag is my most recent project. The other two are older photos that I felt like sharing.

  21. I’ve been using my hand knit shawls as a little bed for my pups in my studio. #knitting #knit #handknit #fiberart

  22. My first #musselburghhat but definitely not my last. Brilliant pattern. This one is made of sock yarn #knitting #handknit #fiber

  24. Sun Glitter Shawl from Under The Olive Tree blocked. Now I only have to sew in ends. I used it to practice the new to me technique of Portuguese style knitting. One skein of Scheepjes Invicta sock yarn that I was gifted but never will buy again. It had several places were it just fell apart. #knitting #handknit #fiberarts #fiber #sockyarn #finishorfrogalong

  25. Finished another pair of socks last night. Just in time to wear them to bed. I don't remember what the yarn is, just that it was kool-aid dyed. #knitting #sockknitting @knitting #handknit

  26. Finished this tank top I’ve been working on for a while. I’m trying to use up the yarn in my collection and I love the colour blocking it led to!

  27. @ellane I always have a pair or two on needles. They're my go-to "I need something to do" project. #HandKnitting #KnitSocks #HandKnit #Socks

  28. CW: CW: Eye contact, super cool knitwear

    @Alien_Sunset made me this most incredible sweater! They had been working on it for quite some time, and it was done just in time for my birthday. Yesterday was gorgeous weather, the perfect day to wear it out the first time to the library book sale.

  29. i started this sweater in 2014. 😅

    all i have left is the cuffs and button placket? for some reason that seems like it's taking longer than the rest. :blobcatdizzy:

  30. Dropped into #bendigowoollenmills last week and found this gorgeous #variegated #purple 100% #australian #merino #wool #8ply #yarn. Being in the #bargain section, the three balls they had were it, and so not enough to make a #handknit #jumper (#sweater ) or #cardigan without playing #yarnchicken, so fell back to my default of #knitting #socks. Being so sidt, thick and #lush, they'll be perfect for my friend, Laura, who finds the bitter #chill of #winter in #Victoria almost unbearable.

    They're knitting up very quickly on my #KnitPro #Zing #Interchangeables using #magicloop #2atatime (to avoid SSS - #SecondSockSyndrome) and the #fishlipskiss sock #pattern.

    I suspect these will be the first of many I'll be knitting.

  31. #fiberuary - #IntentionalHoles

    Simple #lace stitch done with #rainbow colored yarn.

    No pattern, this was improvised to let the yarn shine, the lace panel is just there to keep the boredom during #knitting in check - it's fingering weight yarn, a cone of #sockyarn, 3.5 mm needles.

  32. I was just painting with the fingerless glove my friend Hiroko made for me and this happened. I don’t even need to hold the brush! 😆

  33. This week’s knitting update… finished (and wore!) my Socks on a Plane. Made progress on some simple new socks in Uneek yarn. Cast on a new project, a mystery knitalong shawl called Nature’s Majesty. #knitting #socks #handknit #shawl #WIP #knitalong
