Darning Needle Knits @darningneedleknits.bsky.social · 24/12/2025Worked hard to churn out a lot of ornaments this year! If I really focused I could make 3 in a day, but usually only 1. The lacy ones are my favorite for catching the light off the tree. #knitsky #baubles #handmade #ornaments 1290

Darning Needle Knits @darningneedleknits.bsky.social · 10/11/2025I bought the wool for this sweater on a trip to Iceland in 2017 and finished fall of 2023. Sometimes knitting takes a long time to start and to finish. #slowfashion #knitsky #knitsweater 0370

Darning Needle Knits @darningneedleknits.bsky.social · 05/11/2025Pictures from the Amano Pre-Columbian Textile Museum in Lima It was amazing walking from room to room and seeing the different techniques learn and build off of each other in the longest continuous textile history. My favorite might be this plumage poncho! #peru #textile #fiberart 130

Darning Needle Knits @darningneedleknits.bsky.social · 04/11/2025Manos de Mama Julia! This little shop combined weaving, knitting, and crocheting into unique garments that they'd adapt to your size there. It was refreshing after seeing so many of the same souvenirs at lots of vendors. And it shares my namesake! Worth a visit if in Cusco. #peru #cusco #fiberart 000
Darning Needle Knits @darningneedleknits.bsky.social · 03/11/2025#showmeyourknits cable week! I wear this cable knit hat all the time because I just love how it matches the fall aspens here in Colorado. #knitsky #knitcables 1431

Darning Needle Knits @darningneedleknits.bsky.social · 02/09/2025Our 2nd day in Peru we took a natural dyeing and weaving course. We dyed baby alpaca yarn with leaves, fungus, and beetles.

Darning Needle Knits @darningneedleknits.bsky.social · 28/08/2025Advice for future brides who knit: pick out your wedding dress before a shawl pattern. I made this last summer, then chose a lace dress. The fabrics competed too much, but I proudly wore the shawl for our welcome party! www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... #bride #knitsky #lace #shawl #diybride 0150

Darning Needle Knits @darningneedleknits.bsky.social · 13/05/2025I picked up this felting tapestry kit at Rhinebeck Sheep and Wool festival a few years back. It was really fun and peaceful to work on it... until I would slip up and stab myself in the finger. The kit was from thefeltingstudio.com if you want to try one #needlefelt #felt #wool #sheepand wool 060

Even holding it feels #cozy #collage #crafting 030
Darning Needle Knits @darningneedleknits.bsky.social · 04/05/2025Go I will. Good relations with the Wookiees I have. This chewbacca sock pattern is out of "Knitting the Galaxy."
