Anyway, I came back to post another test knit 🧶 for @perfectlyknotted.bsky.social #PerfectlyKnotted ! This is the #DKCompassCrewSweater and I absolutely loved making it and now love wearing it. Yarn is from @wildfloweryarn.bsky.social . Pattern comes out end of September!

I finished test #knitting the #StapleTank by @perfectlyknotted.bsky.social using my gorgeous "Love Yourself... Or Else" #yarn from @sisterananseyarn.bsky.social ! I'm so pleased with it and I learned so much about shaping. The bust darts I made aren't perfect but they will be on the next one!

And you know what? They're going to be *perfect* with "Ogres Are Like Onions" from @creation-m-couture.bsky.social in a sweater! Look how they play off each other! 🧶 #Yarn #Knitting #HandDyedYarn #CreationMissCouture #FleurAngeApparel

Super gorgeous "Get Out of My Swamp!" green yarn from @fleurange.bsky.social 😍 A yellowy green after my own heart with brown as the perfect accent! 🧶 #Knitting #Yarn #HandDyedYarn #FleurAngeApparel

What an absolutely amazing weekend at the East Anglia Yarn Festival! The biggest highlight for me was finally meeting @victoriaknits.bsky.social in person after six years of online friendship 🥹

I haven't stopped! Nearly two months more of studying kanji update:

@creation-m-couture.bsky.social also sent me a surprise in this package that I didn't expect but absolutely love and feel so grateful for 😭 This gorgeous brown yarn is called "Chestnut", and she dyed it for me after a bad experience I had with a different dyer. It's stunning!!! 🤩 🧶

I just got the most beautiful package from @creation-m-couture.bsky.social 😍🧶 "Ogres Are Like Onions" from the Shrek collection! So beautiful and so soft!

Here are some modelled photos! 🧶

I used "Pleez Halp" (black-brown variegated) & "Larimar Crystal" (aqua with red, pink, and white pops) from Sister Ananse Yarn and I loved how they worked up with the solids from Cascade Yarns.

I loved this hat so much, I made two! 🧶

These are both the #NorthernAttitudeBeanie by @perfectlyknotted.bsky.social and both of them use beautiful variegated yarn from the amazing @sisterananseyarn.bsky.social 😍

Finally, this is Love Yourself... Or Else by @sisterananseyarn.bsky.social based on the film The Substance! 🧶 Do you really expect me to be able to resist neon green, yellow, pink and orange, especially on this amazing black-and-white base?

Golden, Pink and Purple assigned pooling yarn by @sisterananseyarn.bsky.social 🧶. I want to make a shawl with this!

This is Ace of Wands by @sisterananseyarn.bsky.social 🧶. I couldn't resist a beautiful green/brown combo!

It's one of my favourite days - a day when beautiful yarn from @sisterananseyarn.bsky.social arrives! I'm going to put each colour in its own post in this thread. This is Ace of Pentacles. 🧶

If you see this, post your favourite flower!

I got my hair coloured! It's different now!!

So excited to test knit a new beanie pattern soon for @perfectlyknotted.bsky.social using yarn hand-dyed by @sisterananseyarn.bsky.social 😍 This yarn is called "Pleez Halp" and is based on the movie The Fifth Element! 🧶

After about seven (?) months off WaniKani, I got back into it at the end of December and was pleased that I've managed to remember a decent amount of kanji. I need to go back to my textbook to study Japanese grammar, but this is reassuring that not EVERYTHING fell out of my head when I left uni.
