Hey there! It looks like about 100 new insta followers and almost as many YouTube subscribers have made their way over to the Old Salt corner of the internet! Welcome! ❤️ I definitely need to thank Christy from @yarn_cafe_creations for the shout out yesterday! Since you might be new here I thought I’d introduce myself! ⚓️Name: Amanda Hinski ⚓️Where: Saugerties, NY (about 30 mins from Rhinebeck!) ⚓️ Day Job: non-profit CMO ⚓️Hobbies: Knitting (15+ years) and a little sewing. I also have a lap loom but haven’t done much with it. Other than that I love to read - especially true crime and murder mysteries ⚓️Why “Old Salt”? My dad always referred to sailors as “Old Salts” and I’ve always loved sea faring adventures (and the beach/ocean in general). Sadly, he didn’t live long enough to become an Old Salt himself, so the name is a little bit in honor of him. I have an idea to pull the nautical theme into the podcast eventually but it’s still in the works. Stay tuned and thanks for stopping bye! ⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️ #knitstagram #knittersgonnaknit #knittersofinstagram #makersgonnamake #knitting #knittingpodcast #knittingblog #yarn #yarnlove #tegna
I finished my #oxbowcardigan a couple weeks ago but was waiting to post my photos until I could talk about it on the podcast. Since I finished it, I have been wearing it every chance I get! @dreareneeknits this is THE cozy cardigan pattern I have been searching for! So wearable, fun to knit, and incredibly cozy thanks to @brooklyntweed’s warm and wooly Loft yarn. More details on YouTube and on my blog (both links in bio). You’ll see me wearing this one in Rhinebeck for #nysheepwool2018 at least one of the days I’m there! 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #fo #sweaterknitting #handknit #yearofthegarment #deckedoutforrhinebeck #indieuntangledkal #rhinebecksweater #knitstagram #knittersgonnaknit #knittersofinstagram #makersgonnamake
FINALLY! After some tech difficulties I was finally able to upload a new episode to the YouTube channel! The good news is I should actually have another episode up in not too long (theoretically). Episode 15 includes 2 FOs, 5 WIPs, what’s next on my needles, pattern discovery, and what I’m reading! Link to the channel is in my bio - thanks for watching! 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knitstagram #knittersgonnaknit #fadingpoint #knittersofinstagram #knittingpodcast #knitter #knitting #yarnlove #makersgonnamake #fiberarts
What am I doing buying yarn less than 2 weeks before Rhinebeck? Well when your amazing LYS has a sale, it’s the most economical thing to do... right?? @perfectblendyarnshop is to blame!! Planning a #guthriesweater by @boylandknitworks and so excited to get started... someday.... eventually! 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #makersmovement #knittersgonnaknit #yearofthegarment #rhinebeck2018 #knitting #makersgonnamake
Rhinebeck Sweater 2 of 3 is coming along! And my latest issue of @laine_magazine arrived the other day. Always a treat! I think I figured out the problem with my computer so I *should* 🤞🏼have a new episode up on the YouTube channel soon!? Thank you for your patience. Technology has not been my friend! 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #rhinebecksweater #rhinebeck #nysheepandwool #nysheepwool2018 #knitstagram #deckedoutforrhinebeck #knittersgonnaknit #knitting #yarnlove #makersmovement #makersgonnamake #yearofthegarment
Sneak peek of a test knit I’ve been working on! Can you guess what it is? Can’t wait until this pattern is released by the amazing @salapaloosa.knits ❤️ You’re going to love it! 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knitstagram #makersmovement #knittersgonnaknit #yarnlove #knitting #knitstagram #socktober #resurrectionsocks #hallowssockcollection
