#BirthdaySweater
Made very decent progress today! I’m a little more than a third of the way through the chart so I may get this done before birthday after all ☺️🧶 #knitting #BirthdaySweater

This yarn just did not want to be a sweater on it’s own so we mixed it with a gray and I think now we’re cooking. Fun hints of color but the teal stands out more. Also loving this stitch definition tbh 🧶 #knitting #birthdaysweater

One week later 🧶. It’s coming along and I begin to entertain thoughts it might be done for the birthday deadline…I did get a little faster, but it needs sleeves, too 😬 #knitting #BirthdaySweater

Weekend progress 🧶. I wasn’t convinced in the early stages but it was just the usual wormy squiggly beginning. Once it got going, it’s a lush, thick fabric. But I am not fast at colourwork and the work week is upon us… #BirthdaySweater

After intense discussion with my tiny adorable but somewhat tyrannical client, we decided to swap out the pink for a deep teal and go down a needle size for the band, and they were, once again, deeply correct 🧶 #knitting #BirthdaySweater

Important update 🚨 🧶! The whole body is complete, the neck is bound off and there are steeks for the armholes! Still not going to make it on time, but I am so glad to be done with the main body! #BirthdaySweater

Welp, this is how far I got by the deadline; birthday pub trip & dinner today. I’m taking it anyway; you can’t tell from the box that it’s not a whole sweater 😬…
She is most knitworthy & will be excited anyway. And, I want to try the neck on her. #BirthdaySweater 🧶

I forgot to add these pictures to my January Podcast video on youtube so... here is my Birthday (November) Sweater. Front, Back, and sides.

Do you do something special for yourself on your birthday?

Another week later. Scale is hard to see, but past the start to the (steeked) armholes; about 20 rows left on body. I…I don’t think I’m going to make it for birthday deadline. Would be a sleeve/week plus steeks & neck & blocking. She’ll be happy to wait (not too long 😬). #knitting #BirthdaySweater

It looks amazing 🤩! I noticed earlier in the year you and I were both using #BirthdaySweater for late-running, colourwork, handknit sweaters for February babies…
I didn’t make my deadline either 😂

Bluesky only allows 4 photos. Here are pictures of my test moon shape tapestry for my birthday sweater (look at my previous post)

Anyway, starting to believe I may actually finish this before the bday - some little triceratopses are emerging! T-29 days 🧶 #knitting #BirthdaySweater

The Birthday Sweater of Doom has commenced. Forced to admit that my child has absolutely superb color sense, this is going to be pretty stunning when I do actually finish it 😂🧶 #knitting #BirthdaySweater

My yoga studio has added some later evening classes that really work for my schedule & after being unwell in January, I’m really enjoying getting there more. But, uhm, when am I supposed to knit?!? This #BirthdaySweater ain’t gonna knit itself!!
