I'm really looking forward to when it's cold enoug I'm really looking forward to when it's cold enough to actually wear this shawl. ⁠
⁠
This is the #SomeTimeAloneShawl by @softsweater and I am really enjoying it. I've actually already reached the pattern indicated length but will be knitting a few more repeats for that extra blankety goodness. ⁠
⁠
Yes, come winter this will be my actual outfit. But with pants. ⁠
⁠
Knit with #NutidenYarn by @honerocheir from a year ago. ⁠
⁠
ID: A creamy lacy shawl with garter edge is draped over the shoulder of a dress form which is wearing a pink sweater. ⁠

Because I'm very bad at social media posts, I 1000 Because I'm very bad at social media posts, I 1000% forgot about Amanda (she/they, @mountain.knits) and their wonderful #ColoringBookTee while doing tester round ups. ⁠
⁠
She tested it for me using 100% highland fingering weight wool, so you can really see that it drapes in a different way and has more of that fall flavor to it! ⁠
⁠
Thank you for testing, Amanda! Hope you enjoy this sweater. ⁠
⁠
Knit your own by tapping on this photo in my link in bio to see more about this pattern, or by visiting both my web shops (linked in bio again). ⁠

It is prime boba 🧋 drinking season these days, It is prime boba 🧋 drinking season these days, and to me it's also prime #BobaTimeSocks knitting season. ⁠
⁠
When it's too hot to knit with my usual giant unspun/woolen-spun sweater projects, I always have a couple (OK, maybe more than a couple) small sock projects on the needles. ⁠
⁠
Are you a seasonal knitter? Every year I say I'm not, and then the 100 degree (that's Fahrenheit)  weather hits and I take it all back. It's almost as if I have selective memory that blocks out this time of year..... *shudder* ⁠
⁠
The fade and the bobbles are engaging and fun and there's not toooo much going on at any given time of the knitting, so it doesn't get overwhelming. And you get this super stinkin' cute pair of socks at the end! ⁠
⁠
You can tap on this photo in my link in bio to see more about the pattern and knit your own. ⁠
⁠
ID: A pair of socks that looks like a glass of Thai iced tea in a flat lay. ⁠
