Knitting

Hi there @Gwynn @Oaktree @Eve7 @hanami @Former-Member @tyme @Daisydreamer @Shaz51 and all other forumites joining here today. I hope you are travelling well and are enjoying yourself. I cdd add me across a lite funny saying about knitting that I think is quite appropriate. See below for the photo!

 Now, time to get back and retreat to knitting my new beanie!

Hello @Gwynn @Oaktree @Eve7 @hanami @Former-Member @Daisydreamer @tyme @Shaz51 @maddison @Paperdaisy and everyone here. Long time, no post for me so I’m posting a few things I’ve completed over the past few weeks such as my jumper in 12ply yarn that I started on Christmas Day and finished before I went away and a beanie I completed whilst away.

 The jumper is a little big for me but is lovely and warm and I really like it! The beanie is from yarn I picked up in Bairnsdale Spotlight for a total of $2.63 so I’ve also got enough yarn leftover to make another beanie which I’m currently working on now. I hope you like my items that I knitted!

I found that when I left my anxiety meds at home, knitting really helped to calm me down and relax me so I’m quite proud that I’ve got knitting as a skill and coping mechanism in my toolbox to help me get through life’s troubles and issues. It’s a very calming hobby when you find a pattern like a beanie that you can just work on and not worry about making mistakes. I’ve also ordered some more wool called Starlight in a purple colour from Spotlight that arrived earlier this week as I enjoyed working with the sparkly green yarn for the beanie and want to knit myself another jumper after enjoying making my new jumper that I posted earlier. I just have to finish a size 3 kids jumper for charity that is currently on my knitting needles before I can start working on my new jumper just for me.

Take care!

You are so productive @Judi9877

Well done!

💚💜💙❤️🧡

I love this jumper @Judi9877 . I'm a little envious. It looks very cosy. Well done.

I finished a pet blanket few days ago. I'm working on a beanie now.

@Judi9877

Your jumper is lovely well done! I wish I had someone to actually show me how to knit one. I started one but stopped because I didn’t understand the pattern. It gets complicated especially around the neck. You are a rockstar!!!

Hello @Gwynn @Oaktree @Eve7 @hanami @Paperdaisy @tyme @Shaz51 @Former-Member @Judi9877 & everyone

I finished my crochet beanie yesterday. I like how it turned out. I used a YouTube tutorial ( I can't read patterns either @Oaktree 🙂 trying to learn) I used size 4.5 hook. I really like this colour green. Happy knitting everyone!

Here is link to tutorial if anyone is interested in having a go.

Oh this is super cute @maddison ! I love it. My daughter and I went through a knitting fad some years back. It's so relaxing but I got too impatient to get to the finished product. A youtube video is great for instructions. Well done, you!
