Last week, while I was taking pictures of my WIP's, Pimento decided that this shawl was looking awfully soft, and perfect to lie on. He did not damage the WIP in any way, probably because I recently clipped his nails

#FlashbackThursday Morello Cerise is a triangle shawl, knit sideways, in which the triangle edging is worked at the same time as the body of the shawl. I just love this construction

With this project, I finished the body of the stole, and I started picking up and knitting the stitches all around the piece to work the border. I may have to do that again, though, my pickup rate at the sides may be off. To be continued!

I'm also still working on my bubble stitch La Rentrée sweater. It's a good thing I found some more of this yarn in London, otherwise it would have been very tight

#StashDiveSaturday Yax from RMR Yarn Co. send me extra yarn to finish the pink project. With these 2 skeins, I expect it will be possible to also make a matching hat

On this project, I've been knitting more leaves, again. Still not done, but the end is getting in sight

Why should creatures of the night be denied the pleasure of cozy knitwear?

Going Batty Sock Pattern
- Toe-up stranded colorwork
- 2.00 mm/ US0 and 2.25mm/ US1 needles
- fingering yarn (50g-210m)
- gauge: 36sts x 40 rnds per 10cm/4inches

With this project, I've been happily knitting along. I’ve knit up half of 3 skeins of yarn, and started the decrease section

Currently, I'm about to start with the darkest color in the sequence, and then back again to the lightest to match the start of the stole. I think I will have enough length by then. In this picture, you can see an impression of its current length

#FlashbackThursday Here you see the border detail of my Bloemen in het Gras shawl. This eye-catching design came from a desire to bring on an early spring

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

I've weighted the remaining yarn on the second ball, and it's almost time to start the decreases. Once I have 52 g left, that will be it for the rows with increases!

This is a truly epic countdown, at this point, I've been knitting leaves for over a year! In this picture, you can see a bit more of the shawl and its patterning. It's going to be so pretty!

My current progress on this shawl. Have a lovely Friday!

I've picked up this project again. It's really time that I reduce my number of WIP's, because they're starting to weigh on me. And when that happens, it just isn't relaxing anymore. So, time to finish something before starting a new project

On this project, I've been knitting more leaves. The number of remaining stitches on the body of the shawl is now visibly shrinking! It seemed so little, even, that I dared to count them: there are only 14 more leaves to knit!

On this project, I don’t have much progress to show you. That said, I expect to dip into the second skein soon. Once I’ve knit up half of that, it’s time to start the decrease section!
