I have two pairs of mitts for #FOFriday because when I had almost finished the 2nd mitt of the first pair, I realized it was significantly shorter than the first mitt. Solution? Knit another pair! 🧶 Yarn: Dream in Color Smooshy in Cabaret Pattern: Soccer Mitts by Erica Hauser #knitsky #knitting
Two pairs of hand knit fingerless mittens laid on a wooden table next to a small jar of lavender petals and a rose quartz heart. The mitts are knit in brightly colored variegated yarn in pinks, greens, blues, and purples.

Awww. Thanks so much! ☺️ I’m definitely in “surround yourself with the cozy season” mode (even though it’s still too warm out for my liking)!

I’ve been meaning to start some new socks for a while and this week’s #showmeyourknits prompted me to just do it already. Loving this autumnal yarn from Speckled Whimsy. 🍂🤎💚🧡💙Self-drafted pattern (making it up as I go). #WIPWednesday #knitting 🧶
A hand knit sock work in progress sits on a wooden table. Knit sock far is a portion of the cuff of the sock which is shown on the cables of a long circular needle. Above the sock on the table are the balls of working yarn. The yarn is self-striping in gray, blue, orange, brown, and green. To the top right of the sock is a ceramic ghost wearing glasses and a purple  and orange hat.

I have started a purple version of the Poet Scarf by Sari Nordlund and I’m really enjoying it! Sometime this weekend I plan to cast on some socks with some autumnal yarn. 🍁☺️🍂

Oh I bet it took some time! So beautiful though. I have a hard time finishing sweaters because I have to take breaks to do instant-gratification projects like socks and hats. 😁

It’s almost cool enough inside my house today for a long sleeved shirt and I don’t even have the air conditioning or fans on. This may be the happiest I’ve been all year. #happyautumn

Much as we love bookshops, they need more than love to keep going. A bookshop can be the centre of a whole community. Bookshops support authors; organize events. A thriving bookshop teaches the next generation that literacy matters. So don't just love your bookshop: actually buy books there.

Autumnal colors are kinda my thing! 🧡💛❤️ For #showmeyourknits this week, here are three of my most favorite shawls/scarves. Clockwise, (yellow actually light orange) the Spiced Ginger Shawl by Maria Greene, Twisted Edge scarf ( cannot find pattern), & Marlia shawl. 🧶 #knitsky #knitting
Three shawls/scarves lie on a wooden table top in a sort of intentional pile. At the top is a light orange, bobble-edged and lace shawl (Farners Daughter Fibers in Pishkun DK, Hacer colorway). On the right is a dusky red scarf in garter stitch with a cabled edge (Knitty Gritty sock yarn). The bottom scarf is a lace edged garter knit in variegated burnt orange to aqua blue-green (Poema cashmere yarn)

Thanks! ☺️ She spends a lot of her time outdoors (her choice), so it’s a treat when she decides to hang out with me during the daytime.

Vaila Jean was kind enough to not lie directly on my notebook while coworking today. She even refrained from attacking my pen. #caturday #catsky
