Notes from my queue to start this off… Caladan Sweater by Tamy Gore Colorwork sweater with graphic diamonds hanging down from the neckline. It needs 1275yd MC/465 CC. I could possibly use a solid DK for the start and do it cropped with short sleeve so no cuffs. Knit Circus Divine DK 3 skeins (780yd)…
I’ve always wanted to knit an intricate circular shawl, and this is the one I’ve watched other people knit (Carin from Round the Twist, Megan from Stockinette Zombies) that captured my attention. I have 1760 yards of Knit Picks Gloss Lace in Blackberry (4 skeins at 50g each of 440yards). It would be neat to…

After a mighty long hiatus from socks , making an attempt again. Last pairs were too small for my feet, in 2018/2019. My feet spread out with my PTTD. And I was knitting at such a tight gauge, my hands were hurting too. So I’m doing these still on my US 1, but attempting to…
This tee appeals to me as a way to use a variety of colors together! I love the v in the pattern, but I plan to wear that to the front instead of the back. I chose 5 yarns that had some orange in them, where I alternated multicolor and semi-solids between each other in…
2 braids of fiber to spin up.
