My apologies for disappearing for the last week. I needed to take time for myself and my kiddos. I am back and knitting has helped…. #knitsky

This week’s #showmeyourknits theme is what’s on your needles. After finishing 2 projects, I am coming back to the Virdek Shawl to knit the other half. I completed chart D. #knitsky #wipwednesday

I finished Riggies Vest by Gudrun Johnson in John Arbon Textiles Appledore DK in Slack ma girdle. My photo doesn’t look as great on the mannequin as it does when I put it on but it’s hotter than Hades so… #knitsky #showmeyourknits #knitsky

Help. #knitsky I got distracted and goofed.😩 I did an icord bind off for the armholes and accidentally went down the side too. There are ONLY 15 side sts and they are supposed to 3NDL BO. Say F it and graft the side 15sts in the icord or rip all the way back to shoulder and redo it all? (Vest)

This week is a light and dark theme for #showmeyourknits I have: Fiobarra Hat by @stolenstitches.bsky.social in Stolen Stitches Solas in Ban. Opposite is Graham by Jennifer Adams in Jade Sapphire Handspun Mongolian Cashmere in Squid Ink. It has a lovely texture but so hard to photograph. #knitsky

Finished the first half of my shawl. It’s quite large before blocking. Need to put it on hold and then knit the other half. (They attach at the center) I also started winding yarn for the Riggies Vest in this gorgeous John Arbon Textiles Appledore DK in colorway Slack Ma Girdle. #knitsky

Today is my birthday! I worked on my shawl after my kiddos went to sleep. Ran out of yarn, so I need to pull out another skein. One row and one chart repeat before I am done with this half to be put on holder. Making good progress. This is an addictive knit. #knitsky

Not much knitting time lately. Sigh. I have 2 young AuDHD kids and my 6 year old son is level 3, completely non verbal, with too many acronyms to count. He needs 24/7 support. He’s had a bad week. Hopefully things will be better so I can have more knitting time for my own mental health. #knitsky

My eye is still healing but I can see better today so going to try to work on my current WIP. This brings me so much joy because I had to recently take a week off knitting. My fingers are itching to cast on all the things but I want to finish these first. #knitsky #wipwednesday #lightitupmal
