This pattern has been almost ready for more than 1,5 year 🫣 But finally I took a break from all the blankets and garments, and just got it done 💪🏻 Mayfly Shawl is a cute one-skein shawl. Find the pattern here www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... #knitsky #knitting 🧶 #showmeyourknits

I really love doing German Short rows 🤓 🧶 and use them as often as I can. And yes, I have quite a few patterns where they play the main role 💕 all can be found through www.spinnemamma.no #knitsky #showmeyourknits

Almost 700 meters finished gorgeousness 🧶 in two skeins. The big one is 662 meters and 270 grams 😮 it is hard to understand that this huge skein all fit on one bobbin 🤯 The yarn bloomed so much after a bath 😊 All spun and plied on my amazing Frankie. The fabulous Argonaut by @gemmabeamakes IG/etsy

I love spinning, but plying is absolutely my happy place. So relaxing and rhythmic 🧶 Let us see how much yarn I can get onto this bobbin... Frankie does allow me to pack the yarn tightly, so maybe everything will fit🤞🏻 Frankie is made by the clever @gemmabeamakes (IG and Etsy)

Finally back to the sample for the Fingering version of the Coming Together Cardigan 💪🏻 This is me slowing down for the camera 🤷🏻 Knitting this colourway makes me SO happy. The colour pooling is perfection. Thank you @thediscreteunicorn for making this colourway for me 💕🧶 #knitsky #showmeyourknits

Spinning project 🧶, started late January. Finished this week. Plied on my amazing Argonaut, Frankie 💞 And, yes, I love to add A LOT of twist to my yarn (see orange skein) and they all turn out perfectly balanced after a bath 💪🏻

Spinnemamma @spinnemamma.bsky.social · 30/03/2025
Frankie is a proper worker 🥰 she allowed me to ply just over 200 grams in one day (almost 12 hours with just a few breaks) and there was still room on the bobbin 💪🏻 Don't ask how I managed to get the two spun bobbins THIS perfect 🧶 www.etsy.com/de-en/shop/G... to buy a Argonaut in the next update

I got the cutest "Box of Bits" (by @spinjones.bsky.social ) for my birthday last year. Thank you so much @thediscreteunicorn.bsky.social this was fun to spin 🧶 Obviously, it seems like I didn't take a photo of the content before spinning 🤷🏻🙃 yay, fibrobrain... But I am very happy with the yarn 🥰

It is still all about all the blankets over here 🧶 Current WIP is the Mini Fade Blanket. The final pattern will include 2 options for a border. Both crochet and knit. Both are optional, as the blanket has a nice edge. Now it is just a matter of writing clear instructions🤓 #showmeyourknit #knitting

Vector Cowl 🥰 a super quick project for gift knitting. You can use pretty much any yarn weight🧶 and choose between one or two colour brioche, so a good stash busting project💪🏻 And of course, the sizing is completely adjustable. www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... #knitting #knittersofbluesky
