Mom has requested a little over jacket as she does not like her upper arms. She likes this. For the most part. Longer. Really easy. Lacy. Fairly easy. It's been a minute since I worked with dk weight yarn so would appreciate recommendations. She wants black. I would need US shipping. I don't want to break the bank but would like natural fibers. #knitting #knittersOfMastodon

RavelryConfidette pattern by Tasha Moss Confidette is a smart, cropped bolero

Finished the cable knit hat for my Grandma-in-law. Last time we visited she mentioned not having a warm hat and being worried about having to leave the house to go to hospital for any reason.

She's a former knitter who's now nearly blind so I thought a cable would be a good pattern so she can feel it, rather than colourwork she wouldn't really be able to see.

I hope it brings her some joy because she's not having a good time of it these days.

For those people who don't have instagram here are the details.

The Secret Stash-busting Sock-a-Long is starting in January 2025! Organised by 111Windmills.

The idea is to pick sock yarns or sock sets from your stash, wrap them up so each one is a secret and then randomly pick one of your secret yarns each month for a new sock cast on! You can pair them with the patterns of your choice!

The Sock-a-Long will happen on Instagram and on the free Discord channel (link below). The thread is already up and running with people sharing and chatting all things socks!!

You can pick as many yarns as you like from your stash (or shop new yarns)

To get started, pick the sock sets or sock yarn, and wrap each one separately. You can do the same with your knitting patterns if you like!
Each month (or at whatever time frame you think you can manage) pick out your next sock set and pattern and knit through them all while sharing and supporting fellow knitters!

OPTIONS:
- bundle the yarns SEPARATELY from the patterns, and get a mystery pattern/yarn combo
- bundle the yarns TOGETHER with your chosen pattern for that yarn
- wrap the yarns ONLY, and select the pattern at the time of getting your mystery yarn
- any other combo you prefer
