Sometimes you knit something that needs blocking, but isn't flat. This is a tam or beret (with the famous 3-hares pattern where each hare has 2 ears, but there are only 3 ears in total). In the end I blocked it on a saucepan. 🧶🐇🐇🐇 www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

Knitted beret with a pattern of 3 hares running clockwise round the brim. Each hare shares its ears with the other 2 hares, so each hare has 2 ears but there are only 3 ears in total.

I particularly love knitting top-down sweaters, because you can try it on as you go and adjust the fit. 🧶🐿️ #knitting #knitsky #bskyknits

Do any #knitters out there listen to #audiobooks while they #knit? I do all the time. In a former life I used to be an audiobook narrator and I'm still hooked on the combination of knitting and literature. A lot of my audiobook recordings are still out there (Narrator: Cathy Dobson). 🧶

Sometimes designing a sweater isn’t the trickiest part. It’s adapting the design so that it works for other sizes. In this case, I made a sweater for a baby and adapted the design to fit a 3 year old. 🧶🐉🎉 #knitting #bskyknits #showmeyourknits #dragon
