Breezy Rainbow

Looking for a nice open-front cardigan. I had the Contented Cardi by Hannah Fettig (happy home) that I made back in 2014 and it’s a bit too small now, but I loved this style. That one doesn’t go up to my current size, and it’s worsted weight, which I couldn’t wear as much of the…

Appointment Cowl 2022

I enjoyed having one project just for appointments for the second half of last year, so I’m casting on another. Last years was the Tubey Appointment cowl and I’m using the same cast on and needles as last year, in the same ZKN adventure bag that clips on and off of my purse easily. This…

Space Stripes shawl

I found some self-striping yarn in my stash to join in on the Stockinette Zombie’s self-striping knit along for 2022. Using yarn that had previously been a shawl that didn’t work great for me! And then, being me, I’ve been expanding the shawl to be bigger based on how much yarn I have left.

Effin Rock It

First sweater in process of the year! The idea was to find a basic tee silhouette that I could fit my shape and style easily. Something to wear over dresses or tanks and leggings. Even though the tee itself has a specific style with mohair and stripes, I was able to use my own color…

Princess Advent-ure

My very first yarn advent is a Disney Princess-inspired set of 24 minis and a full skein for Christmas. This set was from Yarn Café Creations. It was a fun experience! When finding a pattern, I wanted something that could use most of the minis, something that showed off all of the multicolored yarns, and…

Winter Starflake

After viewing a variety of projects that used this pattern, I chose to make a 3 color version instead of two because that’s what I had. And it ended up that I was able to do a 3 color version with only 3 skeins instead of 4. Used the two-color brioche instructions for section 3….

Tubey Appointment cowl

Received this lovely self-striping yarn from my friend Karen. The summer of 2021 is a mess of doctors appointments to try and figure out what’s going on with my health and so I cast on a yarn-y companion project. Cast 60 stitches on provisionally with a crochet hook around my knitting needle. Using a 14″…
