This time, it’s Ambah O’Brien’s Solstice Wrap Knit-A-Long! This pattern can be knit in either fingering weight or DK, and is meant to use up an Advent set or just a bunch of scraps or minis. I am using mini-skeins for mine. Specifically, two sets of Yarn Cafe Creations mini sets; 1 set from the… Continue reading Another Day, Another KAL
It’s not too early for a Halloween sweater knitting, right? I’m a little bit questioning my decision to use mostly variegated yarns, but basically pretty happy with how it’s turning out 🙂 Pattern is Fall Favorites Collection by Meghan Regan.

Clue 3 of the Ocean Moon MKAL was a nice quick one – just picking up along the arc and knitting some rows of the next section. I am using different gradients for the dark of the moon and for the ocean section, but I like how they look together, so I think it’s working… Continue reading Ocean Moon Clue 3 Done
