Thank you! It starts with a wave motif right below the cuff and then alternates between a trout (swimming towards your ankles) and an arrow pointing down. It’s a gentle reminder that we all live downstream from one another and to act as such :)

Thank you, as always, for your support!

An extra big thanks to my testers! If you’d like to be in the testing pool, there’s a form linked in my bio.

Keep your eyes peeled for kits of these amazing colorways with Mountain Colors Yarn! They should be released next week!

Lol, it’s a WIP for WIP week because I have a whole other sock to knit 😂😭

Ugh. I understand your pain. The biggest things that helps me were:
- switching to 9” circulars instead of DPNs for socks
- keeping the CC in my left hand and having the floats “lower” than the MC floats.
- learning to knit the CC continental style so I’m not constantly dropping/picking up yarn

Thank you! I’ve learned so much by stepping back and keeping the space for others. I hope you find the same!

Did I read this to my R representatives when I called with @5calls.org tonight using the Stand With Ukraine prompt?

Heck yea I did.
