Well I didn’t stay monogamous for long. I cheated on my Sauvabelin sweater about a week ago and cast on the #kenningsyoke by @whistlinggirlknits (Sarah Pope) which was first published in @laine_magazine issue 4. I’m using @malabrigoyarn in the colorway “Whole Grain” on the Rios worsted base, and the colors are just mesmerizing. It’s my favorite knit-while-reading project and it’s flying by! Thanks to @perfectblendyarnshop for ordering a sweater quantity of this yarn that I just couldn’t get out of my head until I had it!! 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knit #knitting #knitstagram #yarnstagram #instaknitting #yarnie #best_knitters #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #yarnlove #knittingisthenewyoga #makersgonnamake #loveknitting #knitsharelove #knittersgonnaknit #knits #handknit #knitter #knitters #shareyourknits #ravelry #yarn #strikking #knittersofravelry #knitallthethings #alwaysknitting #yarnhoarder #sweaterknitting
Back from the great beyond! Episode 20 is up on YouTube and it feels so good to return to talking to you all about knitting, yarn, community, and books. Link to the YouTube channel is in my bio! 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knit #knitting #knitstagram #yarnstagram #instaknitting #yarnie #best_knitters #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #yarnlove #knittingisthenewyoga #makersgonnamake #loveknitting #knitsharelove #knittersgonnaknit #knits #handknit #knitter #knitters #shareyourknits #ravelry #yarn #strikking #knittersofravelry #knitallthethings #alwaysknitting #yarnhoarder
I have been surprisingly monogamous with this #sauvabelinsweater by @thesweatercollective - it’s just so intuitive and the yarn (woolen spun by Elsa Wool) is a dream. Hoping to have this done in two weeks. If I can only keep myself from casting on something new... 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knit #knitting #knitstagram #yarnstagram #instaknitting #yarnie #best_knitters #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #yarnlove #knittingisthenewyoga #makersgonnamake #loveknitting #knitsharelove #knittersgonnaknit #knits #handknit #knitter #knitters #shareyourknits #ravelry #yarn #strikking #knittersofravelry #knitallthethings #alwaysknitting #yarnhoarder #sweaterknitting
Been sick in bed all day. Trying to stay awake for at least a few hours so I can get some sleep tonight. Today’s theme for the #fiberuarychallenge by @creativececi is “cozy” and this isn’t exactly my idea of cozy but it’s as good as it’s going to get for now.... 🤢 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #knit #knitting #knitstagram #yarnstagram #instaknitting #yarnie #best_knitters #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #yarnlove #knittingisthenewyoga #makersgonnamake #loveknitting #knitsharelove #knittersgonnaknit #knits #handknit #knitter #knitters #shareyourknits #ravelry #yarn #strikking #knittersofravelry #knitallthethings #alwaysknitting #yarnhoarder
Is there anything in this world quite as satisfying as a new cast-on that you simply cannot put down? I recently got honest and had a come to Jesus moment —> and I marked several projects as “hibernating” in Ravelry. They’re mostly background knitting but they were clogging up the works and I needed to dive fully into a new project without guilt of languishing WIPs nagging at me. And so I cast on “Sauvabelin” by @thesweatercollective in medium grey woolen spun cormo that feels like a velvet sponge. 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️ #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 #sauvabelinsweater #sauvabelin
The “Walnut Bark Cowl” is a quick and rewarding knit by @sidispinnt ❤️ I’ll definitely be doing this one again because it’s both stunning and v. functional! I picked up this yarn during NYS Sheep & Wool (Rhinebeck) at the @thefarmersdaughterfibers stand. The colorway is “One Stab” and I also highly recommend it! Now... what to cast on next... 🤔 🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑⚓️🐑 #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
