I’ve tried for months to figure out what I wanted this yarn to be, and started and frogged a lot of projects. But I think it just told me it wants to be a simple stockinette scarf, curling and all.

A pattern is emerging!!! I’ll have to tink back a row and a half though. I was sleepy knitting last night and I jumped a few rows up on the chart by accident! The pattern is Darkwater by @knit.love.wool and the yarn is Everyday Lite in Eclipse and Natural. If you are hoping to get a kit for this sweater, I’ll have more available next week!

Are you looking for a great idea for a blanket or bedspread? If so, be inspired by this beautiful Tumbling Blocks Blanket / Bedspread by Kat Li. The combination of many colors and shapes makes this blanket unique. Kat Li rewrote and refine the pattern she found in an old magazine. The blanket is very attractive which makes it ideal for any type of interior.

Oh, this is super stellar! ❤🏠🍃

EXCEPT THIS ISNT JUST A FUNNY HAHA SILLY HEADLINE GUYS

this is really important and is a really great program that teaches skills to inmates and allows them to basically receive group therapy while they are simultaneously learning a craft

IT IS ALSO REALLY RADICAL BECAUSE IT BREAKS NOT ONLY THE STEREOTYPE THAT INMATES ARE INCAPABLE OF BEING DECENT HUMAN BEINGS WHO CAN TALK OUT THEIR ISSUES AND HEAL AND BE FUNCTIONING MEMBERS OF SOCIETY BUT IT ALSO SHOWS THAT TRADITIONALLY GENDERED HOBBIES LIKE KNITTING ARENT JUST “FOR WOMEN” AND ARE ENJOYABLE FOR EVERYONE.

here is an from the above article

They started by knitting comfort dolls, which they gave to children removed from their homes because of domestic issues. Then they moved on to hats for kids at the inner-city elementary school many of the prisoners attended, Zwerling says. “If you look at them, they’re covered with tattoos, they’re rough looking, and many of the young guys don’t have all their teeth,” she says. “But it doesn’t feel rough. They’re very respectful and grateful and very happy to knit.”

THEY KNIT COMFORT ITEMS FOR ABUSED KIDS. THEY KNIT HATS FOR INNER-CITY CHILDREN.

this is a good program and i really hope that people actually look into it rather than just posting the headline and a silly image attached ok

BJD cowl test. I really like how my pattern looks so far, but I’m using leftover yarn from another project and I don’t think it’ll be enough. I’ll probably end up frogging it and writing something narrower to make the yardage work.

Maybe in the future I’ll revisit this design. *^^*
