Day 11 prompt: Texture
I have been waiting to share my finished Grid Gambit for today’s prompt! This was such a FUN pattern to knit & the textured fabric it creates is so so good! I will definitely be knitting another one.

Day 10 prompt: Mood board
A cold snap is forecasted for this week with -0°F temps. I’ll be staying inside, dreaming of Summer days on the water, blue skies, & green trees.

Day 9 prompt: Sunday Fun Day
It’s a knitflix kind of Sunday, with a little baking thrown in.
I finished the front of the #CozyCommunitySweater and am casting on the back, & also made some cheesecake brownie bars to bring for dinner with friends.

Day 6 prompt: A Pop of Color
I haven’t decided what I will make with these gorgeous skeins of @lavenderluneyarn.bsky.social Poppy cotton fluff, but I know I will love wearing whatever it becomes! 😍

Day 5 prompt: Work in Progress
This #bennetbandana is one of my current WIPS. It’s all wrinkly because it’s the one that I keep stuffed in bag to bring with me everywhere.

#fiberuarychallenge Day 4: Inspiration
I ❤️ to knit @imagined_landscapes gnomes & love advent calendars of all kinds. When I saw the one that @flannelandpurls made, I was smitten! Then @imagined_landscapes set of countdown gnomes... I can’t even- overload from both of them!

Day 1: Hi Hi! I’m Heather. I learned to knit 15 years ago, and never looked back. I love projects that I learn new techniques/ construction from. I am NOT a monogamous knitter, and most of the time I like the variety, but sometimes it stresses me out when I count how many projects are on my needles.
Day 2: Looking Forward I am looking forward to knitting the Community Cozy sweater for my very knitworthy daughter as a late bday present
Day 3: Monday Morning Monday morning hits harder after 3 days of @darnknitanyway Sweater Camp. I regret not taking today off of work 🥱🥱🥱 Here’s some of the goodies I got at the camp store.
Catching up with the #fiberuarychallenge here on #knitsky 🧶
Day 1: Hi
Day 2: Looking Forward
Day 3: Monday morning

Love this- I’m in! I just cast on a Grid Gambit Cowl with blue yarn for the CC.
Can confirm!

The doodle cowl I’ve been working on to wear at Sweater Camp is DONE!
I used @pacificknitco.bsky.social doodles from her book as well as the Portland, Rhinebeck, Baking, & Valentines patterns. I also improvised a couple of doodles to represent Stillwater, MN and my LYS.
Dinner out with my family for my birthday!
(First post, no pressure.)
A bunch of DK yarn that I hand wound on a stressful night in November, that is currently being knit into a doodle cowl.
I find winding yarn to be very relaxing/ comforting. This week, I am seriously fighting the urge to hand wind every single skein in my stash.
