i felt so POWERFUL when i finished this top muahahaha 🤣😂
a while ago a 1940s vintage pattern popped up on pinterest that i wanted to knit. i heavily modified it, used my sewing patterns as a reference for each piece, and changed a few things, but i think it worked? ☺️ *happydance*
After about five months, I picked up my Neon shawl again to finally knit the edge. If everything goes well, I "only" have 19 more tips to knit in each color ... Now I really hope that a) I got my numbers right and b) that there is enough of the pink yarn left to finish the piece. . #knitters #knitting #knit #knittingandsoon #knittingaddict #instaknit #knittersofravelry #knittersgonnaknit #knittersofinstagram #nevernotknitting #tricot #instatricot #loveknitting #knitlove #stricken #instastrick #strikning #breien #örgü #iamarealknitter #strikking #yarnlove #ravelrydesigner #編み物 #knitstagram #tejido https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp-YXdUIEJd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
I have some basic rules when knitting. I never take requests, only making what brings me joy. I frequently vow to never write my own pattern. I plan everything I make in advance, never just hoping I just happen to have the right yarn to make it all work.
Broke all the rules with these beauties. Some people are just worth breaking them for.
DEEP DIVE VEST from my Vivacious Vests collection. A hand knitting pattern for vest or slipover knitted bottom up in the round, then split at the underarms, knit back and forth, joined at the shoulders with plunging V-neck binding added in gradient colour. The yarn was from Lovecrafts, so very soft and ideal for the draped, drop shoulder sleeve.

Does anyone else ever need a pacer project? I’ve been working away on my #jennyjacket but I just wanted a new winter hat. Found some #lionsbrand in my stash and cast on a #barleyhat. Even if I’m not working on the Jenny Jacket it helps to work on something. ___________ [Image Description: Two projects are viable from overhead. One is a soft orange sweater. The other is a speckled hat.] ___________ #KnitMyFeelings #knitstagram #knitting #knit #knittersofinstagram #weareknitters #yarn #knittingneedles #ravelry #wip #yarnaddict #happyknitter #igknitters #nevernotknitting #knitlife #instaknit #knittingaddict #yarnofinstagram #watchmewip #plussizefashion #plussizeknitting #knityourstyle #knitsharelove (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnx_rgRItjW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I realized I didn’t have enough yarn to complete a project. The LYS where I’d bought it was sold out. I ordered two more skeins online and figured I’d work out how to blend it in and make a color change look intentional.
It came today and … friends. It’s the exact same dye lot. 🤯
