Knitters gotta knit

Yarn is various Scandinavian wool and mohair (the white one) from my stash.

An c.1000-1200 CE example of Egyptian cotton knitted socks.

I realised while making it that the pattern on the sock isn't always symmetrical or identical, so I had to be a little creative. But I managed to get it pretty close, I think!

circa 1400-1410

was having a discussion with a friend im teaching to knit and she had a big breakthrough when she switched from metal to wood, whereas i absolutely prefer metal.

this cardigan is done! plus a floats picture cuz they're kinda pretty

The fit seems to be going to be good, but I had a very noticeable difference between my ribbing in the round and flat. I knit this pattern before and there was also a difference but not this noticeable. My ribbing gauge in the round is off by 2 stitches, so either I knit with a smaller needle in the round or I just knit the body flat. I think I’ll go with option 2 because then I’ll be sure to have the same gauge and I don’t mind the seaming that much

Pattern is the Lost Tank by Friday Knits and yarn is Rauma Garn Petunia
