silly hat, but this time presenting it like a stone cold professional:

FLIPPY CHEVRON HAT!

Except for the earflaps, I feel like I accidentally got the classic Link angle down somehow. Maybe a little more volume, but other than that, it’s pretty good.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE HEADCANONS!! jade and kalim are my favorite characters and they in particular gave me so much joy. out of curiosity, whats your favorite way to knit? :) -the previous anon

I do continental and I will forever be a magic loop stan (magic loop >>>> dpns and I will die on this hill). I used to be a REALLY prolific knitter, always had something cast on, and there was one year where I somehow managed to make several pairs of (ravelry link) Fireweeds socks in the space of like a month for holiday presents. but I have early-onset arthritis and it started to really hurt my fingers, so I fell off and don't do nearly as much anymore. :(

mostly what I do these days is mini projects, like little lace panels or doll clothes/accessories that I can finish relatively quickly. I might not have the time or ability to do, like, full colorwork socks anymore, but I still like making stuff!

trying to resist the urge to unravel this blanket and start again bc i messed it up a bit and don't know how to only unravel it slightly on account of being really bad at knitting. i stg i counted my stitches so carefully in the early stages and yet none of the "squares" are the same size. why do some of them have 11 stitches now when they started out with 10. why are the transitions between knit and purl so fucked up. help

Jester's Eiselcross stockings, handknit by me! @ionarts_cosplay on Instagram

Jester commissioned these stockings in Rexxentrum over (I think) a single day. Taliesin's joke always stuck with me because there's really no way to speed up knitting - these took me two months to design a pattern and knit. The opportunity to attend the Echoes of the Solstice live show inspired me to knit the stockings, and knitting them inspired me to take on the rest of this challenging cosplay! Who knew painting yourself blue could be so fun?

Danni got to test out her considerable smarts and her tremendous good looks on Wall Street. With just a little focus on her Muse Powers, this creation came about easily. Thank you @danni-gurrl.

A really important part of pattern writing is testing, which has been going on today. I have made a few adjustments to the length calculations based on this test run

I really love how these colours go together in a scattered gradient, there are five different colours but aside from the fairly clear bronze zone they blend quite subtly!

Do you love to colour of the gloves?

Big fan of the colour purple. Also, the bodysuit under here is cute as heck. 💜

Me? Starting work on my holiday presents less than 20 days out due to worsted-weight yarn and overconfidence? It's more likely than you think!

(I only have two presents to make. This one is a stocking for my cousin who spends Christmas with us. I picked colors to match his usual choice in nail polish, blue with an orange accent. The other will be a crocheted scarf for my dad, who loves crocheted scarves. Worst case scenario, I'll finish the stocking and show my dad the scarf WIP on the day.)

I think I finally understand weaving in ends … all it took was 1 video and me actually trying to understand it. Wow. Who would’ve thought
