My all new "Twirls" sweater. I squeezed it in between projects and just couldn't stop. A new recycled yarn and a pretty stranded motif, now how cool is that?

Thank you so much! I love that window effect and of course that drape~

One of my faves, the "Feeling blue" shawl.
I may have to knit another in a new yarn called Luxe. Hm, but in new color, which is actually pretty hard to choose as there are so many....

Another look back to 2016....
That is when I created the "Gianna" poncho. I still think it is a pretty gorgeous knit. What do you think?

My new β€œMaelle” sweater is done.
I wore it out for the first time and it feels wonderfully comfy. πŸ₯°
Of course I started a new top right awayβ€¦πŸ§Ά

A look back at 2016...
At that time I had a yarn kiosk at a local mall. It was short lived though, too many hours ⏰ even with help. I still have my "Mohave" sweater though. 🧢

Happy Friday everyone! πŸ˜€ I'm wearing my new "Tankful"!
So I mashed up two things, a casual tank with an oversized lower body, you see what I did there right? 🧢 The fabric is filled with awesome flecks & nubs.

It’s time to knit, isn’t it? 🧢
How about the β€œAtypical” sweater?
I absolutely love wearing mine. Two yarn weights make this work in simple knit and purl stitches. The back is longer over the tush, which is very cool.

Another lace look, only this time one a bit more casual for lace week on #showmeyourknits. This is the "Linden" shawl. Got to love the buttons, as instant holders in place~ 🧢

Another entry or two for lace week #showmeyourknits my Fern in the wind shawl shown over my Soft tee. They do make a great pair, don’t you think?

Here are more of my favorite lace knits for lace week on #showmeyourknits. This is actually a collection called "Notes", it includes a sweater, a shawl, a poncho and a cowl. All are lovely, if I say so myself.

I enjoy a lot of lace knitting. So it was hard to choose but I think the Etienne was a good choice.
