I am officially of the age where I need reading glasses to cut my fingernails. It’s an unpleasant business and I don’t like it.

This is the Perihelion Shawl by @deunynknits.bsky.social! It’s probably the most challenging and beautiful shawl I’ve ever made and I’ll treasure it forever.

This poor family was just trying to snooze. 😂 The magpie hassled them one by one until they moved to a different part of the lawn.

I’m so excited to share with you my Perihelion Shawl at last! The pattern is 20% off through 9 December and is available on Ravelry and Payhip! #knitting #knitsky 🧶

Just one more day… …and my last in-progress photo! It feels right to end it with a blocking photo. 💙

Two more days! • This is precisely where I started second-guessing my original plan for this shawl. I ripped it back to this point and went back to the drawing board. I am pleased with the result although it took me longer than I’d hoped. I do apologize for making you wait so long! #knitsky 🧶

The picture shows a wedge of a semicircular shawl still on the needles. The shawl is brioche knit in gold and black and has an intricate repeating pattern with radial symmetry.

Just three more days! • This is probably my least favorite progress shot. The stitches were rather crowded on the cable and I had trouble photographing from an angle I liked. But it’s still fun to see the difference! • #knitsky 🧶

This picture shows a wedge of an in-progress semi-circular brioche knit shawl. The shawl is very intricate and switches between black and gold.

The Perihelion Shawl is the most intricate piece I’ve designed to date. The bulk of the design work occurred over the last couple of years but my original shawl swatch was made over five years ago! I was so worried I’d mess up a good beginning I set it aside for a while. #knitting #knitsky 🧶

Five more days! At this point the shawl has increased to the point progress shows more slowly. #knitsky 🧶

Just one week until my Perihelion shawl pattern is published! I think this section looks like a miniature sunburst or an aster, I love it. #knitting #knitsky 🧶

This is, or will be, my Perihelion Shawl☀️ which will be published December 4! • A lot of people saw the tree of life in this one. While this particular shawl does not evolve in that direction you’ve all inspired me to play with some new ideas with this as a starting point! #knit #knitsky 🧶

TIL about block lists. All I did was search “block list” and it’s super easy to subscribe to whatever you may be interested in not being exposed to.

I promised myself I wouldn’t start another project until I finished my Melides Dress, but then the incomparable @deunynknits.bsky.social opened up a test knit for this breathtaking brioche shawl that I’ve been mooning over for a literal year, so I didn’t have a choice. #knitting #knitsky 🧶

I’ve been trying to avoid the necessity, but I will be implementing a small price increase for many of my designs at the beginning of March to adjust for my rising costs. Inflation is the worst. 😢 Pictured is my Saturn Rain Wrap. It is a wonderfully cozy rectangular wrap. #knitsky #knitting 🧶

A rectangular knit wrap hanging against a fence. The wrap uses alternating two-color brioche and two-color garter stitch to form concentric diamonds propagating from the center of the wrap towards the edges.

My Summer Rain Shawl is one of my favorite knits. I love the texture of the lace with the twisted stitches and the added weight of the beads. And that gradient yarn from @thebluebrick.bsky.social! #showmeyourknits #knitting 🧶

A curved section of a lace crescent shawl. The shawl was knit using a gradient that fades from almost white to blue to gray. If you look closely you can see beads worked into the lace.

#showmeyourknits Valentine’s week: The Heartstrings Cowl was one of my first designs. My little one (at the time) was obsessed with hearts, how could I resist? I feel like I’ve come a long way with my work since but it’s still a cute piece to wear on Valentine’s Day. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky

#showmeyourknits theme is striped knits! This is my Stranger Strings wrap, inspired by popular artwork in the 80’s that incorporated the vanishing point wireframe. 🧶

A rectangular knit wrap on a white background. The wrap has colorful stripes interrupted by multiple black lines that converge on the center of the wrap. The wrap is mirrored around a center black stripe.

🧶 #tbthursday #knitsky #knitting I’ve taken a lot of pictures of my Hedge Maze shawl, but these pictures with sunshine and greenery seem appropriate. 💚🍃

Have you ever gone through older photos and been struck by one that never interested you before? I love this moody picture of my brioche Tree Line shawl but I don’t remember this photo at all! It’s a little too green, I likely set it aside for color correction. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky

Hello everyone! I've been working on new knit design! 🧶 If you follow me on other platforms you might have seen more of this baby shawl but since it's a new beginning here for me on bluesky, I thought I'd start with the first of these progress shots so new followers can see the full progression.
