Thank you!

I keep reminding myself, that part of what knitting has to teach me is patience. Since I am actually pretty pleased with my actual knitting speed- it is just there is so much lovely yarn and beautiful things to be made!!!!

✨💫✨
Hehe … so much fun sharing the addictions/obsessions 😈

I think I have 4 or 5 beading projects waiting in my ”to do/next in line” but I keep getting pulled onto side quests, but I think colorwork is now part of my main quest. Of course all with your lovely yarn 🥰

Hope you enjoy it too!

🤣 Thank you!!!!

Thank you! It all came together for sure! Finding the right beads was the <chef’s kiss>

Thank you so much!!!

Thank you!!! 😊

I’m happy to know there are more of us that listen to our yarn 😊 I’ve had one skein singing to me for a year but wouldn’t tell me what it wanted to be until just a couple weeks ago🤣

You should try! I think using a crochet hook to place them is about the same fiddlyness as using a DPN when making cables. I’ve only been knitting a bit over a year now, and using beads is one my favorite things to do! I’m cheering you on to try it!!! 🎉🎉🎉

Diego needed a golden crowning glory! I feel so lucky getting to celebrate him.

You should try beads! I love using them, especially when I can add a little more sparkle. Using a crochet hook to place them isn’t any harder than cables with a DPN. IMO pre-stringing gets awkward.

And of course the pattern for those interested. I found it to be relatively easy, I use a crochet hook to place the beads rather than pre-stringing.

Gorgeous yarn from Republican of Yarnia’s Monthly Subscription, Diego’s Golden Evergreen from March ‘25. Lovely subtle sparkle to the yarn that is hard to capture in pictures.

I truly enjoy knitting hats-my favorite place to try a new technique or in this case revisit & be astonished at it being easier. The lovely yarn is from @isasaxonists.bsky.social, who I hope forgives me for it sitting for a bit till it told me what it needed to be.
#showmeyourknits hats! 🧶

A gift from my kiddo! They get me 🤣🥰💀

For sure

🤣 I love that expression- might have to steal it to describe my tension too!

I hear you, I’m in the same boat- but have given myself a little leeway with knitting and its accouterments since I swear that is the only thing that has been helping me hold onto my sanity.

Very welcome!
