What an exciting year 2018 was! Here are my top nine photos, but I also accomplished a few things I’m really proud of (toot toot!) :: getting a promotion, completing my MBA, starting a knitting YouTube channel, completing NINE sweaters (not the 9 I originally chose but 9 nonetheless), learning brioche (thanks to @digitalnabi), and best of all: making LOTS of new knitting friends. Here’s to a great 2019! 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knit #knitting #knitstagram #yarnstagram #instaknitting #knittingpodcast #knittingblog #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #yarnlove #maker #makersgonnamake #knittersgonnaknit #knits #handknit #knitter #knitters #shareyourknits #ravelry #yarn #strikking #knittersofravelry #knitallthethings #alwaysknitting #yarnhoarder #boylandknits
Colorwork and cables seems to be a theme for 2019! If this year is any indication, then this is all VERY subject to change but I have yarn for every one of these projects 🙊so here is my #2019makenine as of now ⭐️ I have one more project to finish and then I’ll share how I did with #2018makenine (spoiler: I did it!) Patterns: 🧶 “1942” by Maria Olson 🧶 “Footprints in the Snow” by @heidikdesigns 🧶 “Guthrie” by @boylandknitworks 🧶 “Temperance Shawl Makeover” by @tobyroxane 🧶 “Svenson (for her)” by @jared_flood 🧶 “Vintersol” by @knit.love.wool 🧶 “Dark and Stormy” by @theacolman 🧶 “Elfriede” by @soveryshannon 🧶 “Rosemont Cardigan” by @knitbot #knit #knitting #knitstagram #yarnstagram #instaknitting #knittingpodcast #knittingblog #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #yarnlove #maker #makersgonnamake #knittersgonnaknit #knits #handknit #knitter #knitters #shareyourknits #ravelry #yarn #strikking #knittersofravelry #knitallthethings #alwaysknitting #yarnhoarder #makenine2019
Second mitten syndrome is REAL! I actually finished this last weekend and as much as I adore it and can’t wait to wear it... I cannot bring myself to cast on number 2! The plan is to tackle the second mitten after I finish my Stillwater Cardigan (half a sleeve and ribbed border to go). The mittens are an exclusive pattern by @arnecarlos for @knitstars 3.0 participants only. And somehow they fit perfectly for my crazy long fingers! (Yarn is Berroco Ulta Alpaca Light) 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knit #knitting #knitstagram #yarnstagram #instaknitting #knittingpodcast #knittingblog #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #yarnlove #maker #makersgonnamake #knittersgonnaknit #knits #handknit #knitter #knitters #shareyourknits #ravelry #yarn #strikking #knittersofravelry #knitallthethings #alwaysknitting #yarnhoarder #selbumittens #knittedmittens #mittenknitting
There might just be a No Frills sweater by @petiteknit in my future 😬😬😬 @websyarn was having a sale (might still be going on) so purchasing a sweater quantity of this yarn was just the most economical thing to do, right? 🤷‍♀️ #knit #knitting #knitstagram #yarnstagram #instaknitting #knittingpodcast #knittingblog #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #yarnlove #maker #makersgonnamake #knittersgonnaknit #knits #handknit #knitter #knitters #shareyourknits #ravelry #yarn #strikking #knittersofravelry #knitallthethings #alwaysknitting #yarnhoarder
Maybe the reason I’ve slowed down on my #stillwatercardigan is because I just adore working with this yarn and don’t want it to end! Still on the first sleeve (about 5” to go) and then another sleeve and the front ribbing. Excited to see how this wool/mohair blend will bloom after a good soak! It’s @peace_fleece worsted in the color Zarya Fog, which I purchased in Rhinebeck in the @harrisvilledesigns booth. 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knit #knitting #knitstagram #yarnstagram #instaknitting #knittingpodcast #knittingblog #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #yarnlove #maker #makersgonnamake #knittersgonnaknit #knits #handknit #knitter #knitters #shareyourknits #ravelry #yarn #strikking #knittersofravelry #knitallthethings #alwaysknitting #yarnhoarder #sleeveisland
These are not the only three projects on my needles (not by a long shot) but they are what I’ve been working on the most. My Stillwater by @oliveknits remains on sleeve island. I’m onto my second selbu mitten by @arnecarlos for @knitstars and my sock design is making steady but slow progress using “inappropriate crush” by @amyflorence. How many projects do you have on your needles? 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knit #knitting #knitstagram #yarnstagram #instaknitting #knittingpodcast #knittingblog #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #yarnlove #maker #makersgonnamake #knittersgonnaknit #knits #handknit #knitter #knitters #shareyourknits #ravelry #yarn #strikking #knittersofravelry #knitallthethings #alwaysknitting #yarnhoarder
