My woodland creatures shawl. #knitting 🧶

Thank you! Yes the key thing is to make it look completely effortless on the finished garment. Nobody need know how many drafts you ripped up. 😅

Paper pattern design for ouraboros motif

Ouroboros sweater in green with white dragon curled around the yoke.

A few people have asked me about my process for designing yoked sweaters. Basically there's a lot of trying things out on paper and checking how it comes together. 🧶🐉 #showmeyourknits #knitting #knittingdesign #art

Gorgeous! My attempts at lace are all in the naughty bin 😅

I‘m literally sitting next to mine! It’s my husband‘s favorite, so it’s had a lot of use by now!

Thank you so much for posting this. It’s so exciting to see one of my designs being reproduced so wonderfully.

Knitting in progress showing a black and white badger with all kinds of swirls around it. Riddled with mistakes because the pattern is quite hard to follow.

Working on an animal, a badger cushion WIP. Fits nicely in this week’s theme of #ShowMeYourKnits.

This was a tam which I designed for my daughter a few years back. 🧶 #knits #knitting

That's looking amazing already! Lovely work!

Posting in memory of my much loved cat, who sadly lost his life to a collision with a car last week. I’m going to miss him.

Thank you so much!

Start of a fair isle style yoke.

This is more fun than I expected! 😊🧶

This photo came up today… one of my earliest experiments. I never published it. Perhaps that was an oversight. 😅🧶

Multicolored circular yoke, partially knitted.

Started a side project. This is the beginning of a slippery slope of multiple WIPs 😅🧶. In my defense, I wanted something I could just knit without having to follow a chart. Useful for train rides, waiting rooms etc.

Me wearing my work in progress sweater.

This photo is from 5 years ago when I was starting out on colourwork. I still had the sleeves to go, but I was so excited to have found my art form. I wasn’t into designing yet. Just playing with yarn.

Cutting the steel stitches (extra stitches added at the front of a sweater) to make a cardigan. The fabric will not unravel if the cut is vertical.

The secret to easy colourwork cardigans. 🧶😱👍 #knitting #steeking

I design knitting patterns. This is what I’m working on right now. If I’m happy with it, it will become a pattern.

I was imagining them doing synchronised swimming. 😆

I've finally finished my frog and written up the pattern. Such a fun knit! #knitting #showmeyourknits #knitsky #bskyknits 🧶🐸 As ever, I've popped it on Ravelry if anyone fancies making one.

I really could do with a third hand sometimes, mind!

Definitely no frogging!!!! 😂🐸🐸🐸

No you may not sit down for dinner, human. The cushions are mine, all mine! 🧶🐈‍⬛
