knit quilt
this is probably my most ambitious current project. i am working on a gift for my partner. I am creating a ton of knit squares. I usually do colorwork using charts to make images
This is where I will collect images of my projects and wips. Lately I have mostly been knitting, but I love filet crochet, sewing, embroidery, and natural dyeing. I want this to be a place for me to write about my explorations in fiber arts as well. I have a lot of goals for projects and need a way to keep me accountable. Hope you enjoy
These socks im working on are using sock yarn my partners mom gave to me. currently I only have 3.5mm dpn's so that is what i am using.
I am hoping to get smaller dpns soon. I am using a handful of patters for this sock bc I cant help myself but overcomplicate things. The leg of the sock is knit with a waffle stitch. it is super fun to work up. its just enough variation to keep everything interesting. it also creates so much interest and texture i loveeee it. I also did a twisted knit ribbing. i love the way that looks also, it is very much helping to give a more clean look to my knitting. I frogged part of it twice. first because i forgot to do increases for the foot and didnt like the heel the second was because i did the heel wrong lol. i am bad at keeping track of my stitches and miscount often. its hard to be a knitter when u cant count lol.

i love granny squares. ive also never made a crochet afghan. I feel like i dont take advantage of the speed of crocheting enough. i also thing a solid granny square blanket is the most perfect crochet project. granny squares are adorable and underrated imo. anyway i am using a ton of random scrap yarn colors and stuff. its a good project to go to when i dont feel like knitting lol. crochet is a lot easier for me so this is my current in between crochet project to do when knitting gets too hard.
