I just got stopped in my tracks while watching "Below" by a beautiful Aran sweater, and in a different episode by what I'm sure is Caitlin Hunter's Halibut sweater.

I love to wear leggings in the fall, and I love my Blundstones. But I don’t love the look of the skinny legging bottoms with the skinny Blundstone tops. Well, problem solved. Bring it, #fall. Pattern: Cabled Legwarmers by Stephanie Jessica Lau #crochet #CrochetSky 🧶

I think outside of vanilla socks and hats my most often knit pattern has got to be the #Boxy by #JojiLocatelli I just adore the shoulder detail of that pattern, and how easily the body is adaptable to whatever I feel like. I dont think I'm done with it yet. #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky #knitting 🧶
Six different takes on the Boxy pattern, from lace weight to worsted, pockets to crochet lace inserts.

This week's #ShowMeYourKnits cue is #stripes Had an advent calendar that included one full skein of a lovely silver-grey, and I needed a grandpa cardi in my wardrobe. Voilà, a simple top-down raglan (no pattern), which I wear a lot, because it goes with pretty much everything. #knitting #KnitSky 🧶
A narrow striped cardigan in woodland colours of mostly green to brown, with a bit of orange, red, and lavender thrown in. Cuffs and button bands in grey. On a hanger in front of a narrow mirror between medium brown closet doors.

Do you ever knit socks from a long tube cranked on a sock machine? I love it for vanilla #socks, where I find the straight bits a bit boring. Afterthought toes and heels in, and a bit of a cuff (or not), and, "Hey, presto!" socks. #knitting #KnitSky 🧶
