The Dracula Daily Scarf

I may be a month late, but I finally finished my scarf! This is the second Dracula Daily scarf I've completed, and definitely the longest: I used bigger yarn, and included the days with no update, represented by every black row. This monster is a little over 11 feet long, and 7 inches wide. Laid side to side, it's the perfect size for a rug!

I'm considering making knitting kits for next year's participants, that way if you order a kit you don't have to spend a ton of time reordering Seward's color, or buying whole balls of yarn for people who don't talk much *cough cough* Quincy- *cough cough*

I’d say I’m probably an intermediate knitter, but I’ve never really made a proper wearable before.

So I decided to knit a vest for my Teddy Bear 🧸🤭 using a knitting pattern from a book I bought in Japan.

I definitely improvised parts of it — especially the neckline! 😹

But somehow it all worked out, and I’m quite pleased with the result 🫶🍀

haven’t been working on socks lately but recently got back to it and picked this pair! all done now!!!

pattern: i ain’t afraid of no ghosts by stone knits.

Last week I finished my first pair of socks! Top down, vanilla, colour change (100% wool + nylon blend for heel and toe), ssk heel flap. I followed orangeknits’ how I roll pattern (a treasury of techniques!)

They're a bit wonky but I love them nonetheless. I feel like I have achieved a big step (pun intended) in knitting! Lots of love to my bestie who helped me through the process, but also gifted me the yarn and needles last Christmas. I was very intimidated when she told me I would learn to knit socks in 2025, and yet here we are!

Finally finished and blocked these cute socks!

It was a fun experiment with color dominance in colorwork knitting and gave me a really thick, soft, cushiony fabric. They’re super comfy and almost more like slipper-socks.
