schoolingdianaMy oldest son and his girlfriend had a civil marriage in Thailand this week. In July, they move to Nanjing, to start his new job, after graduating with his IB in TESOL. She’s Thai and has never lived where it’s cold before, so I’ve started the first of several pairs of wool socks for her. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittingprojects" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittingprojects</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittersofmastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittersofmastadon</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/socksonsaturday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#socksonsaturday</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Nanjing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Nanjing</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Seattle" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Seattle</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Thailand" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Thailand</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittingprofessors" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittingprofessors</a>

Vicki DavisThe Fine Sweater is finally complete! Great pattern by Yu Jie, based on the comic by KC Green. This is definitely the most complicated thing I’ve ever knitted, and I think it took me as long to embroider it and weave in the ends as it did to knit it, but I’m glad I did it. Not recommended for anyone who is a perfectionist, though. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knitting</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/knitting" class="u-url mention">@knitting</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittersofmastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittersofmastadon</a>

That's Mr Badger to you 🏳️‍🌈St Brigid update - The Sleevening...Finally, this afternoon, I finished the third sleeve. I'm not a mutant (well I am, but that's another tale) I managed to mess up the initial increases in the first sleeve and it was too noticeable to let go, so in the end I ended up making three...Still a way to go though, I need to knit the torc collar, decide if I want to do the same for cuffs and even hem<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knit" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knit</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittersofmastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittersofmastadon</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/CableKnit" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#CableKnit</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knitstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knitstodon</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittingprojects" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittingprojects</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/KnitHardDieWarm" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#KnitHardDieWarm</a>

MilenaFinally finally finally finished these socks!

Vicki DavisI wasn’t anticipating I’d post as much as I have done for <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/fiberuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#fiberuary</a> but it’s been really inspiring to see everyone else’s makes and it’s pushed me to share mine too (I will run out next week!). My first ‘texture’ post is this cable cardigan that is from Marie Wallinn’s Gentle pattern book, knitted mainly in the garden through lockdowns. I do wear it a lot but the moths love it too, so I’ve already had to mend it! <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knitting</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/knitting" class="u-url mention">@knitting</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittersofmastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittersofmastadon</a>

It’s with sad memories today but I am thankful I had a mum who taught me. A family tradition which I keep going is knitting an aran sweater most years for my dad. Today I am sharing the sweater I knit him for Christmas from a very old leaflet. I was very young when I asked to knit an aran. I have been knitting simple things this week but today I will start to swatch for a texture sweater for myself <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/knittersofmastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#knittersofmastadon</a>

Vicki DavisIt’s the last day of <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/fiberuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#fiberuary</a> colour week - my final colour selection is a baby jumper I made for a friend who was working on a film about Creation Records, so I thought it was only appropriate to recreate Primal Scream’s Screamadelica album cover for her little girl! My absolute favourite bit of colour work. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knitting</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/knitting" class="u-url mention">@knitting</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittersofmastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittersofmastadon</a>

Vicki DavisIt’s day 6 of <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/fiberuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#fiberuary</a> colour week, so I thought I’d share a couple more <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/shetland" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#shetland</a> wool jumpers (though they’re a bit crumpled, admittedly!). At the front is a short-sleeved jumper from Susan Crawford’s A Stitch in Time vintage knitting book, which got me knitting again after a few years off; at the back is Marie Wallinn’s Bressay pattern from her Shetland book. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knitting</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/knitting" class="u-url mention">@knitting</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittersofmastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittersofmastadon</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/fairisle" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#fairisle</a>

Vicki DavisIt’s day 5 of <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/fiberuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#fiberuary</a> colour week, so I’m sharing a baby jumper I knitted a few years ago - the foxes were part of a free Loveknitting glove pattern but I thought they’d look good on a baby jumper instead<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knitting</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittersofmastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittersofmastadon</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/babyknits" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#babyknits</a>

Vicki DavisDay 4 of <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/fiberuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#fiberuary</a> colour week so here’s a cardigan I made about 10 years ago. The pattern was released by Fred Perry, as part of Wool Week, but it was withdrawn quickly as it hadn’t been put together by anyone who knew anything about writing knitting patterns - I had to guess the needle size (and I guessed too big, as you can see!) so it ended up in the charity shop, sadly. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knitting</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/knitting" class="u-url mention">@knitting</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/knittersofmastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#knittersofmastadon</a>
