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
What are you doing this weekend? I hope you have a wonderful time, wherever you are 💕 Me? I am over here forcing my brain out of the (seemingly everlasting...) brain fog 🤓 using every tool I have at hand; laptop, tablet, print outs and handwritten notes. 🧶 #crochet #crochetdesign
Mini Fade Blanket 🥰 This has to be the most relaxing and yet, engaging pattern I have ever made 🤓😊 we are getting very close to publishing the complete pattern, including the cutest border. 🧶 Find more info here www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... and get the pattern at a discount until Friday 5PM GMT
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 💪🏻
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
Oh my! If you are in the market for an e-spinner... Find GemmaBeaMakes and the Argonaut on Etsy! www.etsy.com/de-en/shop/G... Why, you ask? A few reasons posted in the comments. 🧶
Working my way through a long to-do-list (both knitting and non-knitting related items) and dreaming about a new idea for knitting with beads 🧶🥰 Maybe I can get something done next month 🤔🤞🏻 #knitsky #showmeyourknits
Enjoying some relaxing spinning under my cosy Unicorn Blanket 🧶 #yarn #spinningyarn Gorgeous fibre from @thediscreteunicorn.bsky.social
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 🥰
Knit a few stitches with me 🧶 Finally able to cross off some items on my to-do list, after a MASSIVE flare. Yay, for spoonie life 🙃 Working on the body of my sample for the Coming Together Cardigan, Fingering version, and snuggling under my Mini Fade Blanket (still reduced price the next 8-10 days)
Lily Pad Shawl 🥰 before, during and after blocking. It grew SO much. And it is so light! Less than 150 grams 🧶 www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... #knitsky #shawlknitting #twocolourbrioche #tofargetpatentstrikk #knitting #briocheknitting #patentstrikk

Coming Together Cardigan, Fingering version 🧶 Getting SO close to being able to cast on my sample, using these beauties. Thank you @thediscreteunicorn.bsky.social for dyeing these - pure perfection. Still have a couple of days of editing before I can dive in. After all... It is 20 sizes #knitting

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
Fixing a split garter stitch 🥰 Do you prefer to fix a mistake "the easy" way? Or do you prefer to rip back and reknit? Knitting on the Mini Fade Blanket sample in the February colour in the Birthstone Mini Skein Club by the sweetest @thediscreteunicorn.bsky.social 🧶 #showmeyourknits WIP
