aran knitting projects 🧶
Autumn I like you!
Blocking is great but also the Temptation of waiting...
This project has carried me through the summer but it is Done! Perhaps I will now do a victory lap viewing of LoA as a reward (<guy who has never needed an excuse to rewarch LoA)
The amount of times you have frogged and redone that project? Oh, the remarkable things you have learned honing your craft!
That project with those small mistakes in them that make you feel bad everytime you see them? Proof that even in this machine and AI driven world, you can still make something wonderful by hand.
Those stitches you dropped? Great practice for remaining calm and problem solving, even when you need a break to do so!
That project you have been staring at, but find too difficult to start? It's always nice to have a goal, and even better to take a chance and trust yourself!
Part of making is learning. Part of learning is being kind to yourself. And if you can only ever make dishclothes? They are so useful, and good gifts, and, as long as you have fun making them, perfect. :)

adventures in hand quilting!
reminder that if you ever buy wool yarn secondhand you should put it in a plastic bag in the freezer for a week, let it thaw 24 hours, then refreeze another week. this makes sure that if there are any moths or pests they are killed by the first freeze, and the remaining eggs are lured to hatch by the thawing and then killed with the second freeze. until this process is complete you must keep the yarn isolated from your existing stash or you risk any infestation spreading. i buy a lot of wool yarn from thrift and antique shops and always do this and have never had a problem with moths or other bugs. if you buy wool sweaters or other wool things secondhand you should also do this just to be safe
I do this with all my secondhand wool fabrics, though with a week of thawing because that's how long my mother said to do it.
It also applies to feathers and especially fur! In the hierarchy of moth tastiness vintage furs are very high on the list. They like fluffy things better than smooth tightly spun things, and they like dirty things better than material that's clean and full of sizing, so old furs are extremely edible as well as full of hiding places. And they will eat feathers, I've seen it :(
I'm told that they will also eat silk but only if it's sufficiently dirty.
When you do this, remember to tell your housemates, otherwise you will get woken up by a very concerned and confused shout.
Finished the Rizzo blouse
the back panel is fully off the needles and all lifelines are out!! now I need to go and do this all over again for the front! I think I might go and weave in at least part of all those ends first though, just to kind of get them out of the way

Ok you guys finally get to actually see me make a sweater from start to finish
My two most recent crochet projects - I’m very proud of these, particularly the one on the left (which took so much planning and trial and error), because they're my own designs!
I'm most of the way through writing a pattern for that one, but I have stalled out on finishing it unfortunately :/ - maybe someday
and its completely done!!!!! i just finished off the border and i think it looks great!!
when i look up a knitting term, the last thing I want is an ai overview. I want a 60+ year old woman with no understanding of lighting or helpful camera angles who still manages to give the most concise and clear explanation of how to execute purl 2tog through the backloop. ai summary fuck off, where is phyllis?
can i hear a little commotion for the sweater

if you love downloading pdfs you are likely to never use again you have GOT to get into knitting
if you like opening tabs and downloading files. by god is ravelry the website for you
My wife sent me this and honestly, brutal. But fair.
green fabric time again! I'm done weaving.
Well, I still have 3 skeins of yarn left over, but I am done for now.
The original plan was to make trousers, but I don't think I want to do that anymore. Instead, I want to make the Bog Coat! Except, of course, the iconic pattern requires a fuckoff huge peace of fabric, and I do not have that. I have 2 narrow stripes. So I'm using the term "bog coat" to mean "simple T-shaped jacket with minimal sewing".
This is roughly what I thought I might do (sorry no schematic sketch but you get the idea):
But I still haven't washed the fabric, so depending on how much width I lose, I will have to revise that. I initially wasn't too sure about the horizontal stripes, but the more I think about it, the more I like it.
That leaves just one problem. Namely, lining.
I should probably line the jacket, both for structure, and because I think it will continue to shed (weaving made a mess like you wouldn't believe). But what to use?
My most trusted fabric store has a lyocell twill that looks interesting. It's smooth but not too shiny, and quite heavy; the listing says it's 160g/m². But supposedly still flowy. There's really nothing speaking against it, other than me being irrationally prejudiced against viscose fabrics.
I have narrowed it down to these colours that I can't chose between:
Listed as "ocre", a light sandy yellow.
Listed as "cinnamon", reddish brown.
And these 2 shades of green, one lighter, one darker.
BUT! Then I found this amazing checkered flannel, that is just. I mean look at it. Can you imagine it in combination with the green wool. Iron age vibes off the charts.
Pros: so cozy, would look cool I think. Cons: Cotton is really not great for the environment, and this is so cheap it can't have been produced ethically, the listing says this is printed??? tf, why isn't it woven.
So, in conclusion, help me chose?
Which lining should I buy?
ocre lyocell
cinnamon lyocell
light green lyocell
dark green lyocell
checkered flannel
c'mon guys, I can't line a jacket with flannel that's a stupid idea
I'm gonna go with the cinnamon, I think it will work best against the green. Moss and earth :)
Thank you all for participating!
