Beautiful!
Thank you!
That yarn looks great, nice job!
Thank you! Itβs Lady Godiva by Handmaiden. Beautiful wool/silk blend.
Whoa! That's gorgeous. Well done!
Not sure if it's you in the photo, but I really dig the tattoos! Reminds me of sacred geometry.
Itβs my friend (posted with permission), and thatβs exactly what she was going for. Her tattoos are amazing!
Love how the colors mingle!!
Thank you!
That's a cool knit! Is the knit called drop stich? I have a few knitter's in my life that make me things from time to time and I'd love to request something with that pattern.
The pattern is free, so here it is. It's actually pretty easy to make, I hope your friends make you one!
Thanks a bunch!
Edit: yours looks even better than the sample picture on the pattern. You must be really good at this.
Omg, thank you. Thatβs like the best compliment for a knitted, lol. You just made my day!
Incredible work!
Thank you!
Your scarf looks like a human being wearing a scarf
You should be. Thatβs a pretty cool scarf!
Thanks!
Rainbow road - the scarf. π Great work!
Thank you!
Did you intentionally pick the yarn to go with the purple thing your friend is wearing?
Not at all - I actually didn't know for whom I was making the scarf at first. Then it called to me that it belonged to this friend. I went to meet her, and she was wearing the purple overalls. We both gasped at how well it fit with the scarf. It was one of those serendipitous moments!
