So far so good….. the boyfriend curse does not extend to socks or to daughters. He loves his birthday socks. I think she found a keeper. He is completely #knitworthy #sockknitting #knitting 🧶

Poking around on my ravelry project page and shocked I did as much as I did in 2024: 19 pairs of socks, 4 hats, 5 tops ( mostly vests), and one lap throw. I was hoping to have one more sweater done, but I’ve had to rip back the sleeves twice. Such is #knitting #knitsky life

Just so pleased on how these turned out. Hoping the sweater curse does not extend to daughter’s bf and does not include socks. 😂 #knitting #sockknitting #fo 🧶

I love having my birds out in the world living their lives, but seeing one of them at the airport making their way home, fills my heart with so much happiness and joy. In 11 hours and change, I’ll be hugging the snot out of bird #2. #emptynest #cominghome

When doing sleeves on a bulky sweater (especially when you have extra yarn balls hanging off the sweater) place your sweater in your popcorn/vomit bowl. Rather than constantly picking up and plunking down, you can spin your bowl as you go around. 🧶 no tangles here #tuesdayknittingtip

The two pairs of socks I needed done by the 16th are blocked and ready to be gifted to birdie #2. I haven’t had much luck with color work socks so fingers crossed they fit. #knitting #sockknitting #showmeyourknits

I love making #knit goals for the week and month. This month I need to finish 3 pairs of socks and 2 sweaters. One sweater and pair of socks will be done this week. On the second sweater I’ll finish the body and ribbing leaving the sleeves and neck. Second pair of socks will have 1 heel done🧶 💪

196 push ups! Wtg Duck 💛💚💛 #goducks

I was so proud of myself on Tuesday. I had all of my wips organized with three coming with me. I left a critical part for each of them at home. Sigh #knitting #menopause #brainfog

Took my lunch break to finish binding off the sleeve. I’m taking this to birdie #1’s place for his partner to try on this weekend🤞 Stockholm slipover V neck by everyone’s Petiteknit. Yarn is KFO merino and mohair bottle green. It’s my third one and yet to knit one for myself. #wip #knit #knitting

Getting ready to crack this #book open. Small things like these by Claire Keegan is my book club’s December pick. And November marked my 28th!!! Anniversary in the same book club. Happy reading! gahhhh how am i that old??? #reading #bookclub

Where’s my #yarn friends? Went and saw Wicked today and now I HAVE TO #knit a pair of wicked inspired socks. I’m looking for pink, emerald green, and bits of black. Suggestions? #indiedyeyarn #knitting #socks

Furiously trying to get this pair done before my daughter is here for Christmas. I’m excited to sit down and finish sock 1. 🧶 #knitting #sockknitting
