This experiment with Frida and fairisle knitting is now being made into a crochet bag. I'm not completely happy with my 'Fairisle Fridas' but I'll keep working on it 😊 #fairisle #fairisleknitting #colourwork #knitting #wip #instaknit #instacrochet #frida #fridakahlo #retrocolours #acrylicyarn #spotlightaustralia #yarnlove #craftastherapy #perthcreatives #perthmakers #tereseknits

Who knew there was such a thing as a 'jog' in knitting? When knitting stripes in rounds a jog is a visible step at the colour change. Thank you Mr Google- problem solved once again👍 #stilllearning #knitting #instaknit #knittersofinstagram #handknit #knittedcardigan #perthmakers #creativehappylife #tereseknits Pattern adapted from the Striped Yoke Cardigan pattern by @lclarke522

🎈Yay! Block Party! Well, blocking party really but that doesn't sound very exciting. I've spent the week blocking all my handknits after realising what a difference it makes to the finish. For the nonknitters- I dunked them in water, rolled them in a towel to squeeze most of the water out and lay them flat to dry in the shape and size I wanted them to be. #tereseknits #stilllearning #knitting #knitstagram #knittersofinstagram #fairisle #fairisleknitting #intarsia #handknit #instaknit #wearableart #knittingdesign #creativehappylife #craftastherapy #perthcreatives #perthmakers
