The latest design by @minimiknitdesign.bsky.social I had the pleasure to test knit. I used a 100% cotton yarn and have already worn it many times #knitting #knitsky #cotton #handmade #handknitted

The 3D shape of Vienna Cami
I think that it would look pretty with a tutu skirt. 🎀

Elba Tee includes both charted and written directions. I used to be all about charts, but these days I lean towards written directions. It's just easier on my brain. I can just knit without thinking. That said, I still love having the chart.

Today was supposed to be pattern release day... but life had other plans! I was unexpectedly tied up from 7am to 7pm, and by the time I got home, I was completely exhausted. The good news? The pattern will be live tomorrow!

Today I had two epiphany moments, one is related to knitting and one is not. I've been working on a design all day long and I was moving back and forth between 2 ideas, both equally complicated. Then a third idea came to mind, much simpler and better. I'll start working on it tomorrow 🙂 #knitsky

Geometry tee
For those of you who love making modifications, you can choose first the neck width, then the length, then the width and at last the armhole depth and make it completely yours. And you only have to make one decision at a time.

This is one of my most worn handknits in this period. You can't go wrong with an understated garment.

Happy Mother's Day 🌷
The most precious gift for me is being together with my kids. I know that one day they won't need me anymore and one day I won't have all the messiness at home. I am sure that I'll miss any ordinary day that I am having right now.

I'm working on a new design with the same yarn, same color and same stitch pattern as my design CP04 Polo Shirt. But I promise, this time it'll be something very different 😀
