  1. 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

  2. Seeking advice from the #knitting community. If you are knitting a sweater in the round, do you swatch in the round or flat ? #sweaters #knitter #knittingmastodon

  4. Happy to have some knitting time during the holidays to knit #knitting #knitter #peru #knittingmastodon #shawl . The colour palette has been inspired by a Peruvian woven cloth.

  6. @katpesk @KarenStrickholm @knitting the pattern becomes clear. Since it's my first time trying it, I think I made a few mistakes, so it might be hard to guess. But still, it may be more familiar in this form :) #knitting #knittingmastodon #intarsia #popculture

  8. I have a Very Important (not really) knitting question/advice needed.

    So I made this nymphalidea shawl, supposed to look like a butterfly wing. I love it when it's blocked and Im' not wearing it.

    When I wear it, I want it to hit lower on my back. If I kept going, the pattern is such that it would be wider (longer horizontally) but never longer vertically.

    If both non-lace edges were straight, I could pick up stitches and add. But one is curved.

    Is there #any* way to add on to that long curved edge?

    SIGH!

    ID: Bike tyre meme. Step 1: decide to knit a sweater. Step 2: decide not to do a tension swatch. Step 3: complain loudly on knitting forums about pattern drafters not test-knitting garments.

  11. Meet MaHGnomie, who now lives with my sister in Missouri. He watched the Super Bowl with us. MaHGnomie for the win!

  12. Today I learnt that I can knit a whole hexipuff during a kids party. That’ll be me volunteering to take the smalls to all their future parties then 😂 where have you been knitting your blankets? Have you stuck to the sofa, or taken them further afield?

  13. After three nights of my asthma bothering me, I have come to the conclusion that I am allergic to mohair. RIP floof. It was fun while it lasted. #knitting #knittingmastodon #knitters #knittersofmastodon

  14. Resolutions:
    1. Get comfortable enough in common lisp to use it as work, at least for personal tools.
    2. Finish the three knitting projects I have on the needles.
    3. Knit a new pair of flip top mittens for myself.
    4. Teach my son Lisp.

  18. Less time on social media

    Upside: I made the rainbow coloured jumper shown below in two days

    Downside: tendonitis

  19. Weather has turned to rain and I’ve tested positive for Covid… so I’ve been cheering myself up thinking of summers past and future. This blanket pattern epitomizes summer picnics for me. It’s the plaid and the running stitches and the long twisted tassels that does it.

    Moonstone Plaid Blanket by Two of Wands

    Cast on a blanket with me (doesn’t have to be this one) or work on a WIP and join me for the #AYYKCAL23 starting on 1st Jan.

  20. Hubby asked me to knit him some more socks. He prefers handknit socks to commercial socks because not only are they warmer, they actually fit his feet. I'm using #WestYorkshireSpinnersSignature4ply in Gingerbread and enjoying the progress. They're not a Christmas gift and he doesn't want to wait for me to block them when they're finished

  21. Calling on the knowledge & skills of #KnittingMastodon - I've been asked to come up with knitted slippers for a young friend who has a number of physical disabilities. Foot length is 10.5" but foot circumference at the widest point is 15" and the ankle circumference for 1 foot is 21.5" and 2 foot is 18". I need ideas for easily adaptable patterns, preferably knitted in a bulky yarn if I'm to make them in time for xmas.
