A Tale of Two Cities got brought up again time to revive my favorite fact that when my high school class read it we referred to Madame Defarge's knitting holding people's names to kill as The Knit List

gay ass socks (part 1)

hey there! first post on this blog! i thought it might be nice to have a more casual place to share my projects (i used to maintain an instagram for this, but who has that kind of time, right?)

so, anyways. The Socks.

i knit these suckers back in, like, spring 2022? something like that? they were a shockingly fun project for something so big and repetitive, but unfortunately back then i was a terribly tight knitter (i'm still prone to gauge issues, but at least i know how to deal with it now) and they came out way too small to ever be wearable. they've been shamefully shoved in the bottom of my forgotten projects bin since then

but damn do i love the idea of these socks and i still badly went to wear them! so i'm finally frogging them and starting over

i did most of the frogging the other night while rewatching alien (1979), then last night i reskeined them-

-which looks pleasantly like ramen noodles, and then dunked them in some cold water and straightened out the fibers. they're hanging up to dry now but i bet i'll be able to rewind them tonight and maybe cast on the toes!

i'm going to redo these in a slightly different pattern - this time i'll try out "Brioche Topped Thigh High Socks" by Lavanya Patricella, because i've been in a brioche mood lately, and i want to try and use up every scrap of the yarn to get these socks as long as possible!

also i need a nice easy project to bring to lectures, and my other project (big cabled cardigan) is not working out for that

anyways, thanks for reading and i can't wait to show more of this project!

i wanna post my skip to loafer art but i cant do it knowing ppl are gonna put it on tiktok and pinterest bc itd be like. bringing an invasive species ykwim

#my meds just kicked in so im feeling talkative but truly idk how to explain it #its like. with anything else id be more than happy to introduce it to ppl like monkie kid and mp100. witch hat maybe but its personal to me #but skip to loafer is special to me. and i feel bad for saying this bc other ppl do deserve to watch smth they will enjoy #hell the reason i got into it was bc my friend was kind enough to lend me her copy and i got hooked #its so ironic im saying this esp given how insecure i am abt depicting characters wrong. but i really dont want to look thru the tags #and see them on a 'can i copy your homework' tier list. or ppl getting mad abt why egashira mitsumi and shima cant just be a throuple #its just!! i wont stop you if thats how you like to engage with the show or how you interpret it bc ill just ignore it and leave u alone!!#and theres no objective wrong way of doing it!! and i know that interacting with the work is what forms a community after all!!#but keeping it tight knit is just easier for me bc nobody has to worry abt making each other laugh and we can enjoy it for what it is #fully aware im saying this as someone whos drawn monkie kid art with text post memes and owl house draw the squad templates #but at the same time i just. dont want to explain myself or give ppl reasons why shima and mitsumi are ace coded just bc it 'feels right'#fandom is a communal thing and it feels so hypocritical thinking this. too many conflictng thoughts that idk what to act on #yapping

I finished one project that means I get to cast on one more right?? Even if I have 8 wips?????

At some point, I lost my favourite scarf. I've been using my shawls instead but they're really big and are slightly harder to style than said favourite scarf (it was blue/dark green and matched a lot of my clothes). While I was checking out yarn, trying to decide if it would be worth to reknit my old scarf when I might be able to find it, I saw this cute yarn! Butterfly by Premier Yarns, it's made for shawl knitting with 2/3rds of the yarn being solid and the last 1/3rd being striped.

Premier Yarns is possibly the most hit or miss of all the yarn brands I've used but when it hits, I really like them. I'm still not 100% sure either way with this particular yarn but it's probably a hit, it's very soft and nice in stockinette (I didn't want to deal with curling so I went with full garter, which is Fine in this yarn). It is pretttyyy splitty, but not so bad I have to consistently look at it while knitting.

I'm only halfish? following a pattern right now. I knew I wanted a crescent shawl (aka 6 increases every other row) and found one but honestly I've already changed so much from the original it's pretty much not even the same pattern. I still have it listed as the pattern I'm working on in Ravelry but that's only if I use the lace from the pattern, which I'm undecided.

#knitting #knitblr #wip #for some reason i'm reminded of one of the prettiest shawls i ever knit #i have the yarn to knit it Again but Better. when I finally whittle down my project list I should start that

had a really fun idea to finally make a dent in all my scrap yarn by crocheting a scrap hexagon cardigan and i am so excited with how it's coming out so far!!! making these are so fun, like being able to fold and lay them out so you see a mini version of what it's (partially) gonna look like when it's done is just so sick, y'all!!! idc if it's ugly!!! i love it n i'm having a blast!!!!

#think i might list this on my etsy shop too when it's done #bc i really don't need another crochet cardigan and i want to try adding new stuff other than knit beanies to my shop!!#i truly cannot stress enough how much scrap yarn i have like i could probably make several of these 💀 maybe i'll do different sizes #*

I Googled "blunt plastic knitting needles for air travel", because I thought after two-decades-plus of security theatre, that might be a thing by now.

A fair number of the first results were for medical lancets.

That is the opposite of what I wanted. "Did you mean sharp metal medical needles that would definitely get you pulled aside" no Google I absolutely did not mean that.

Edit @ everyone who means well: America is not the world and I had zero contact with the TSA. I was travelling by Emirates from England to Japan via UAE. I had specifically looked this up in advance.
