Make no mistake: Das hier ist Code. (Ich habe ihn sogar kommentiert!) Wenn ich meiner Tochter etwas über Algorithmen beibringe, fange ich hier an.

Long Stripes socks are new from Maria Sampo-Janhu and they're making my eyes go crossed, but they're still very cool! They must be super cosy too, as they're knit in a worsted weight yarn. Pattern is available on Ravelry. #Knitting #knitsky 🧶www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

The project I am most proud of to date: a non-mirrored double knit scarf of the first 8 bars of Barber's Excursions. Treble part on one side and the bass part on the other. #knitting

My favourite #knit of 2024 was definitely the Fungus Among Us cowl by Mary P Hunt. I made mine in Malabrigo Aroyo. There is a #crochet version of the pattern available too. Both from Ravelry. #knitting

I've been diving into the world of two-colour stranded knitting by recreating the pattern from this 12th century sock found in Egypt. It's so stunning and the process so enjoyable that I wrote a substack for it!

Knitting through time: Recreating ancient colourwork
I was looking for stranded colourwork using only two colours, and what a stunning example these 12th century Islamic socks are!

The Aran sweater is ready for seaming! One forgets just how large these projects are. I’ll be a week seaming it, I’m sure. #knitting

This is really annoying to knit. But I want the result, which is a fitting camouflage-ghillie-poncho including fingerless mittens and a balaclava. For wildlife photography.

A favorite #knitting hack I picked up somewhere: dollar store paintbrush holders are amazing for keeping your DPN sets together and organized, along with single crochet hooks.

Today's post features a sock discovered in #Egypt. It's divided at the big toe - a design intended for use with thonged sandals. The sock is made of wool using the nalbinding technique (single needle looping). Several similar socks have been found in Egypt, preserved ...🧵1/2

Ich selber hab von Stricken keinen Plan aber bin auf Twitter ein Riesenfan vom Wanderschäfer Sven de Vries gewesen. Er verkauft ab und an sehr schöne, regionale Wolle. Demnächst ist es wieder soweit. Vielleicht ist das für die #Handarbeiten Bubble ganz interessant.

Found some remaining Lettlopi. Made a swatch. From a 'chart' I made with Inkscape some time ago. It's the pattern of a sweater Sarah Lund is wearing in "The Killing".

Tried mosaic knitting for the first time but it doesn't look as expected.
