When you are on a 12 hour shift and forgot to bring stitch markers, improvise 😉

I hope these actually turn into socks, night shifts are hard work 😫

The start of my Colour Lab CAL. It's going to be a colourful riot! 😊

This is the start of the Colour Lab CAL from Scheepjes using hand dyed yarn 🤟🤟

The little squares for part 1 are from neon yarn mini subscription and they are beautiful💝

It's so different to see the yarn as a skein then a finished product, you really get to see the colours better

The 3 solids are my own and they turned out great, I may change them when they run out 💚🩷🩶

Onto completing the squares!

I want to follow the Scheepjes Colour Lab CAL for the start of 2023 but.....

It uses 80 balls of different colours but only tiny amounts and then there are 3 main colours 😲

So I'm thinking of using minis for the little bits and then a solid colour for the main colour bits 💖

The cool but scary thing is that I have no idea how it will work up 🎨

I will post progress pics as I go ✨️

When you realise that you need to sort out the active project storage tub before you start a new project🥹

Drowning in yarn, I need to destash and get stuff made 💪

What are your yarn plans this year?

The hat is finished and blocking so now it’s time for the written pattern!

I’m currently in the process of doing the photo tutorial. While this is complex cabling, the pattern is written for a beginner. Anything more complex than a knit or purl stitch has a photo tutorial page, like so! I’m a great believer that anyone can achieve anything; if you’re struggling then it’s because it hasn’t been explained well enough! Even the most complex knitting pattern is just a series of ‘move this stitch here, do this, then move it back’ so don’t be daunted! Give it a whirl ☺️

I’m considering a video tutorial too but I’m really super shy so the prospect fills me with horror! Maybe next year…

It’s the middle of the night and I can’t sleep 😭 Probably not the best time for a bit of pattern introspection but hey ho! If you’re not living in the edge you’re taking up space 🤣

Anyway I’m ripping out and replanning because the outer section looks naff. I know that’s literally the sole purpose of a swatch but it still hurts…
