#bangoutacarbeth

Oh my this Carbeth is stunning. Made by the talented @janepoynterphotographer 💙 ・・・ Carbeth Cardigan by Kate Davies in Skein Yarn’s Bliss DK in Baltic and Stirling colourways with buttons gifted from Ms Kate. 💕💕This is the first of my planned winter woollies, just in time for the cold snap tomorrow. 😬 . . . @katedaviesdesigns @skeinyarn #carbethcardigan #bangoutacarbeth #skeinyarn #handmade #ravelry #knitstagram #knittersofinstagram #handdyed #knittinglove #knitting #tricot #memadeeveryday

All blocked and dry and pocketed and on me now. I’ll take better photos of it later. For now, squee! #carbethcardigan #bangoutacarbeth #katedaviesdesigns #malabrigomarch2018 #malabrigochunky #malabrigojunkies #knitting #knittersofinstagram

Now with dry towels underneath. Resisting the temptation to turn on the heat just so it will block faster... #carbethcardigan #bangoutacarbeth #katedaviesdesigns #malabrigomarch2018 #malabrigochunky #malabrigojunkies #yesiaddedpockets #knitting #knittersofinstagram

Secret pockets! But maybe I should only graft one side before blocking, so they’ll be as flat as two layers of bulky weight yarn can be... 🤔 #carbethcardigan #bangoutacarbeth #katedaviesdesigns #knittingmodifications #knitting #knittersofinstagram #malabrigochunky #malabrigomarch2018 #malabrigojunkies #patchpockets #grafting

I asked for some photos because selfies weren’t working, and then I wasn’t a very good subject. Captions for this are as follows: “Damnit now I’m laughing.” “What?!” “Yea I’m not good at this.” Still. Me in the sweater. With the shirt I made last year. Pants are not slow fashion. What I notice now that a photo was taken outside is that the yarn I used had some inconsistent dying going on. . . . . . #carbethsweater #katedaviesdesign #handknitting #knitting #slowfashion #bangoutacarbeth (at Hampden, Baltimore)

#bangoutacarbeth is exactly how this went! I’d started my #carbethsweater a little before I heard about the kal and I finished in about 2 weeks in what I’d describe as an epic frenzy. It’d been a year since I’d knitted when I started this (insane RSI issues). I’ve got pride over here. ☺️ I used frogged yarn from A Rowan sweater I started ages ago. It’s Rowan cocoon and way too slippery to hold the turtleneck and cuffs as blocked, but I still love it. Thanks to @katedaviesdesigns for such a fun pattern! ❤️ #knitting #rowancocoon #knitasweater #taupe (at Hampden, Baltimore)
