I've been #LoomKnitting 4 ski masks over the past few weeks! They're really warm, comfy and stretchy!

Someone at work about a year ago said that my #chullo earflap hats make me look like Griffin, the guy in "Men in Black III" who can see every potential timeline. So I finally #LoomKnit a red and white hat that looks like his.

Today I re-learned that the U-wrap knit stitch is supposed to be done counter-clockwise around the peg instead of clockwise. 😅
But turns out I like the baggier look so I decided to do a whole #sock with that "happy accident" version and cuff-first instead of toe-first!
Plus I did a gathered bind-off like I would for a hat.

I #LoomKnit my first ever pair of #socks! Using a tube sock pattern by LoomAHat and Plymouth Encore Chunky yarns.
I think the reason one is longer than the other is because I realized too late that I'd been doing the U-wrap stitch incorrectly on the first, shorter sock.
But, lesson learned and now I have a new pair of socks to wear around the house! I even started experimenting with my own pattern.

Started another #LoomKnit hat project tonight! The UV reactive purple and lime green are perfect for #Halloween 💜🖤💚
Now I want to make a scarf with this same yarn, alternating with another UV reactive yarn like an arcade carpet.

Today I finished one #tuque and made another one start-to-finish! The first is brimless with blue and green sprinkles and a matching pom-pom on top. The second is lavender/mauve with a 2-inch brim.

Today's #YarnGecko hat is a #tuque made from 3 different shades of orange yarn! Perfect for autumn.

2 new #YarnGecko #LoomKnit tuques! The black yarn is Plymouth Encore Chunky and I think the red and orange are Lion Brand Vanna's Choice.

What does "knit 1, purl 2" mean, anyway? You knit 1 stitch and purl the next 2, then repeat across/around the rest of the row, creating a rib stitch.
And when you do that for a whole hat, it looks like this! Same yarns as the hat I made the other day. Maybe Vanna's Choice?

I made this #tuque with some random yarn that a friend gave me years ago!

I was almost finished making this hat yesterday when I accidentally tore a yarn tail sticking out of the top. I couldn't properly close the hat so I tried to sew it closed. And stuck a pom-pom on top, which I was planning to do anyway.
The yarn still looks pretty when worked up, though!

Earlier this week I made a #chullo (Peruvian earflap #hat) out of this BEAUTIFUL #AuroraBorealis colored yarn. One of my friends liked it so much they commissioned me to make one for them!

I made a green tuque/winter hat for Saint Patrick's Day! This time I used a new (to me) technique of the Celtic Knot stitch from LoomAHat 💚
