I've been making tiny nonsense this last week I have been a little sad. But this tiny nonsense is really making my out look brighter.

Yokes for the trunk show tomorrow @yarnitcobourg from 10-4 weather permitting. Only one of each colour so come early for best selection! Bring a skein of your sweater quantity that you need to get excited about. DK or worsted!

#kintrasweater but make it neutrals! If you have not seen this new pattern by Rebecca Clow you very much should. Many YarnTubers have sample knit this one and it has so many colour palettes that look phenomenal. It is size inclusive and comes in DK or fingering weight in one pattern.

I am knitting up a bulky weight toque, 5.5mm needles holding many strands together (6 lace weight merino, 2 strands of lace weight merino) I love how muted with pops of colour the effect of these strands on the fabric.

I will be at the lovely Yarn It in Cobourg Ontario on Feb 15th for a trunk show! If you are in the area and want to buy Canadian, my yarn is spun in Ontario, Dyed in Ontario, and I even carry a grown in Ontario (actually on a neighbor's farm) Shetland with Mohair socks weight yarn in natural colours

I had to stop mid graft to go help load 1/4 of a cow I to the freezer. I told the spouse I love him enough to stop mid graft row and he said 'you love beef enough to stop mid graft row'

Found an old crochet project. This was a stash buster for sure. I can't remember if I had a recipient in mind or not. This is three fades a grey a pink and a wild card. I am using a 3.75mm hook and the texture is firm. Using three stands of lace weight in each ball.🧶

Kintra by Rebecca Clow is my current big WIP. Currently in testing and should be released Feb 14th ish. Knitting it for my spouse who wears an XXL. Kintra would be a great stash buster. It is also designed for Advent mini skeins. #kintrasweater #knitting #knitter 🧶
