🏝️ The best vacation knitting project ☀️
|
Happy Friday! I’m in vacation mode! I hope you’ve got fun plans for the weekend! I thought I’d show you what I decided to bring with me to Hawaii. IT’S A SQUARE!!!!!! 🤣🤪🤣🤪🤣 Okay. It’s (going to be) 3 squares. I kept thinking it would be cute to knit one. I guess I thought it 2 different times and then abandoned it, because I found these two in a pile of WIPs. Anyway, this is perfect vacation knitting. It’s tiny, you don’t need a pattern, and it’s relaxing to work on. If a square is too boring for you, I recommend my Downtime shawl pattern for something that doesn’t require much thought or my Everywhen shawl if you want some unique shaping to keep you on your toes! I’ll show you how much I actually get done next week! If you want more… Browse my Etsy shop See all my patterns on Ravelry |

Hello! How have you been!?! I’ve been working on some more knit wall art. I’m so excited to show you some pics today! This is Aries, it’s part of my zodiac series. I’m loving how they’re coming out!

Sometimes they get pretty tangled if there’s a bunch going at the same time, but it’s rarely bad enough for me to have to pause and untangle. I like it so much more than...
Happy Friday! How was your week? I’ve been getting another travel-friendly knitting project ready. I won’t be bringing my Popcorn Ceiling sweater because it’s too big to pack. I’m on the first sleeve, though. Yay, progress! 🎉 I’m still working on the tank top, but you know it’s impossible to bring only one project on a week long trip! So I started a fingering weight ribbed hat. I’ll write it up and send it to you after I decide how I want to do the decreases. I’m picturing a fingering weight...
Hello and happy Friday! I'm back from my trip and I brought back a knitting mistake to share! 🤣🤪 Only, I was too mad to remember to take a picture when it happened, so I recreated it as best I could for you. You know how every knit in the round pattern warns you to be careful not to twist the stitches? We've all done it at least once and ended up with a mobius strip. But have you ever managed to do it while knitting flat!?! Did you even know it was possible!?! I'm working on a tank top that...
