BAD BURNS aka Knitting DykePhew! I had to go down two whole sizes of needles to get a cast on that isn't wonky. I shoulda read all the comments on folks attempts at it. Most people only had to go down one size. After going down to 3, and it was still way too wonky, I went down to 1 and couldn't. I knit nothing on 1s. My vision isn't suited for knitting on that size. So I tried a 2 and that (mostly) looks good.<a href="https://mspsocial.net/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a> <a href="https://mspsocial.net/tags/CannonTee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CannonTee</a>

epiloniousContinuing some socks I wanted to make for friends from podcasting meetups who seemed very impressed/enamored with my knitting.This Elementary Watson pattern is by Sherry Menton using Knit Picks Felici in color "Country Roads" and Stroll in color "Forest Heather". There should be enough for me to get 2 pairs of mid calf socks out of it.This is the second pattern repeat showing some cables and chevrons on top of the foot, after some other repeats we gusset and turn the heel. <a href="https://toot.lgbt/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a>

BlackPixelDust: Art :autism:I legit keep looking at my handspun stash in despair. Then I look at my fiber stash and it's bigger.Idk what is the use of asking "how did this happen". But I am looking for a (handspun) yarn for a spring/fall hat and I have NOTHING. 😩And I have many pounds of handspun fiber. Countless 1000s of yards/meters. I will fix it. I am just in shock and despair. But I do love my handspun and fiber. I just don't have *space*.<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/spinning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#spinning</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/crochet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crochet</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/queer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#queer</a>

oliverbeginner <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a> question - i remember i once knit a cardigan. it was meant to be slightly oversized but once i actually sewed all the pieces together at the end and put it on the whole thing sagged under its own weight down to my knees 😂 what did i do wrong? i did a swatch and calculated the "proper" dimensions but that didn't include the weight of the thing. is there a trick? i'm about to try a pullover and would like to avoid a repeat...

FaintdreamsStarted knitting and crocheting something with 2 mm needles and have decided that is the limit for my hands / fingers / eyes.Anything lower is basically making lace / and or creating with wire and needle tools.I have great admiration for those creating in more miniature than that - but it's not for me.Nope.<a href="https://dice.camp/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/YarnCraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#YarnCraft</a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/Hobbies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hobbies</a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/Miniature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Miniature</a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/Limits" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Limits</a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/YarnWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#YarnWitch</a>

VereeshMy cat fur blanket is coming along nicely. I just spun up another huge cake of yarn, but the end is in sight.

Rikard ottossonSkogsro koftan 🌲 stickad i alpackagarn. Knapparna gjorde jag av avokadokärnor😊 Ville ha en ganska basic kofta så jag har klurat, räknat och testat mig fram. Jag piffade till den med fickorna, ett träd och en blomma. Den dubbelstickade knäppkanten var superkul och jag är väldigt nöjd över det valet! Väldigt skön är den✌️ <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sticka?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sticka</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/stickat?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stickat</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/stickadkofta?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stickadkofta</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/kofta?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kofta</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/avokadoknappar?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#avokadoknappar</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/avocado?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#avocado</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/alpacka?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#alpacka</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/alpackagarn?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#alpackagarn</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/knitting?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/cardigan?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cardigan</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/knittedcardigan?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knittedcardigan</a>

Rí RuaHelp wanted: Finding a knitting pattern.I had saved a link to some fingerless gloves/mittens pattern that had pride flag across them and a sort of star over the thumb area (if memory serves, it often doesn't). For reasons (incompetence) I've lost the link and I'm trying to find it again without success.<a href="https://gts.eunach.scot/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a>

katherineidly wondering if i should give double pointed needles a try… magic loop is so handy (and saves on having to buy needles), but it gets frustrating to have to stop and pull the cord to switch sides, especially when working on sleeves and other things with smaller circumferences.<a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a>

ElisseThis post brought to you by the fact that I'm making a crochet shawl just because I don't want to go pick up 100 stitches for a sleeve and then rib 10 rows and then I'm done with my <a href="https://mas.to/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a> project, and so I've been putting it off for weeks.

Elisse<a href="https://mas.to/tags/crochet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crochet</a> is really neat when I just need to turn off my brain but would like a FO sooner than later. I feel like <a href="https://mas.to/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a> is more engaging (just because I know more techniques and feel much more confident taking on new ones), but takes a lot more effort where a FO is concerned.

ArtsandSocks 🧶🪡It has been a week of half finishes. I finished one fingerless mitts, and one baby sock. The second baby sock is cast on, but the weather got warmer and I kind of lost interest in the second mitt.<a href="https://ottawa.place/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a>

AngelaIt was local yarn shop day today, and we have a new-ish one that I had not been to yet. So after lunch, I took a gander.They stock a lot of thin yarn, which is not really my thing. I like worsted or aran. Sometimes even bulky. I don't knit a lot of socks and I don't do lace. I might use DK weight here and there ( like for mittens) but that's about as thin as I normally like to go.That said, they did have some beautiful yarn. I had a hard time not snatching up some of the loveliness, but I didn't know what on earth I would knit with it.I ended up with a new crochet hook and two skeins of a lovely green yarn. The hook is for more weird hats (like the snail shell hat), and I will use the green yarn to make a headband and gauntlets. I had made some green gauntlets a long time ago but they have disappeared. I have no idea where they went - I usually wore them on St. Patrick's Day.I don't even have a very good picture of them. The yarn I got today is a darker green than what I used before, but I think I will be just as happy with the gauntlets. I love the cables and how far up my arms they went.<a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Knitting</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/LocalYarnShopDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LocalYarnShopDay</a>
