This evening was grey, misty with drizzling rain after a tiring day at the workshop. A brief swim shook off the weight of the day, sending me home soaked but smiling. . #greyday #misty #drizzle #rain #mizzle #seashore #allthegreys #calm #quiet #seacape #coldwatertherapy #seaswim #coast #coastallove #thalassophile #thalassotherapy #alwaysbythesea #wetday #gotwetter #northdowncoast #irishweather #dreich #northernireland #coastallife #refresh #washofftheday https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwp-zDIFubW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vcjs95s4cn9o

I can't believe I'm up to dividing for the fronts already. Admittedly is thicker yarn than I normally work with and there has been a fair amount of lurgy-related sugar knitting this week but even so. Quite exciting to be able to make such rapid progress. #knittinginspiration #knittersofinstgram #igknitters #knitstagram #knitlove #knitlife #purlalpacadesigns #yarnlove #yarnlovechallengeday #texture #autumnfeels #i_loveknitting #designersofinstagram #sweaterknitting #allthegreys #greylove

I really must get my stash organisation under control. Whilst having a little rootle a few days ago I can across these two perfect grey skeins of @thefibrecompany Cumbria yarn that I had totally forgotten about. I was just thinking that I needed some DK weight yarn for a hat and then lo and behold - there it was. At least I found it before I bought new yarn which is what I normally end up doing. I'm sure I can't be the only one that does that 😀😀 #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #instaknitters #igknitters #tricot #stricken #knittersoftheworld #perlestrikk #winterknitting #knitstagram #knitlove #knitlife #greylove #allthegreys #simplethingsmadebeautiful #yarnlove #wovember #wovember2017 #stash #simplepleasures #handknitsarebest #knitfastdiewarm

I'm thrilled to announce today that my new shawl design is now up on Ravelry. The Worth The Fuss (WTF) shawl is a grown up version of the Fuss Free Festival Shawl and intersperses garter stitch and eyelet rows to make sure you get the largest shawl possible from your previous skein of sock yarn. There is a 50% discount until Oct 30th - just use code WTF - and click on the link in the bio. Yarn used in the sample is the wonderful Titus 4ply from @edencottageyarns in Colourway Starling #knittersofinstagram #igknitters #knitstagram #instaknit #tricot #tricoter #shawllove #shawlknitting #garterstitch #allthegreys #greylove #i_loveknitting #knitlove #knitlife #wtfshawl #louisetilbrookdesigns #edencottageyarns

How amazing is this photo by Emma @eldenwood_craft She is knitting my #worththefussshawl in a beautiful grey yarn from @yantantetherayarns and I love the way it matches her super project bag too. I don't mind a bit of colour every now and again but give me the choice and grey wins every time. Grey for the win! #greylove #allthegreys #knitstagram #knitlove #knitlife #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #shawlknitting #knitadddict #louisetilbrookdesigns #designersofinstagram #ravelrydesigners #ravelry #i_loveknitting #tricot #tricoter #stricken #garterstitch #simplethingsmadebeautiful #thesemoments #simplepleasures #slowlife

Whichever way you look at it, there's a heck of a lot of grey to knit through on this Gradient Band Cowl before I get to the pretty colours. It's a nice relaxing knit though and this singles yarn looks fabulous in garter stitch. Good choice @little__greygirl #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #knitlove #knitlife #instaknit #instatricot #yarnlove #allthegreys #gradientbandcowl #tricot #knitadddict #garterstitch #handmadewardrobe #slowfashion #simplepleasures #simplethingsmadebeautiful #thesimplethings #momentsofmine #indiedesigner #indiedyer

If there is a more perfect grey than this then I'm yet to find it. I was lucky enough to have a quick trip to @looplondonloves the other day and DH picked out this skein from @theuncommonthread for some socks. He really wants a sweater - for a 50" chest in "not thick" wool 😨😨 So the socks were by way of a diversion. Swipe left for my other modest purchases. My first ever skein of Plucky Knitter and the most gorgeous skein of teal yarn from Madelaine Tosh which literally fell off the shelf into my arms - it was clearly fate. Edit: why the heck does my autocorrect keep changing skein to shrub! I'm sure I type skein much more frequently 🤣 #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #knitlove #knitlife #yarnlove #sockyarn #greylove #allthegreys #tricot #stricken #knitadddict #stash #sockknittting #operationsockdrawer #idratherbesockknitting #i_loveknitting #best_knitters #strompa #sukkaapukkaa #lys #loveyourlys #londonknitters #stashenhancement

Garter stitch, grey and tiny speckles. Yes please. This skein of yarn from The Uncommon Thread has been in my medium to long term stash for some time just waiting for the right moment. With a bit of luck this will be a new garter stitch shawl design. An elongated crescent - my favourite shape - lots of garter stitch and a bit of eyelet action. I just need to stop petting and admiring the thing and actually knit it 🤣 #knitters #tricot #tricoter #knittersoftheworld #knittersgonnaknit #knittersofinstagram #knittersofig #yarnlove #everydayknitter #designersofinstagram #knitlove #knitlife #knitstagram #instaknit #knitting_inspiration #iloveknitting #knitaddict #wearethemakers #makersofig #louisetilbrookdesigns #indiedyer #indieyarn #greylove #specklesaresohotrightnow #allthegreys #shawllove #garterstitch
