Younger Son came home for spring break (and possibly the rest of the school year?) yesterday. I got to compare his sweater to the pullover I was basing it on. I hadn't realized that it tapered quite a bit from the hips. My version is too big and I have ripped the whole body out and have to start it again. On the plus side I was worried I would run out of yarn so now that should be less of a concern. #rosekimknits #knittingwip

When Younger Son was home for winter break he asked me to knit him a sweater. We couldn't find yarn in the color he wanted do we dyed this is yarn from my stash together. He said he wanted a "muted red." I would call it a dusty rose. I'm knitting an EZ Seamless Set-in Sleeve Sweater. He also requested hems and a henley neckline. I'm a little worried about having enough yarn and my knitting time has been scarce with the puppy around. #knittingwip #rosekimknits

Finished my February #hatathon goal of six hats this weekend. One scrappy #stashbustinghelixhat, four Noro Kochoran and one Nashua Creative Focus Bulky dyed by me. #rosekimknits

For 2020 I want to really work through my fingering-weight yarn. So I've started a Granny Stripes crocheted blanket, like everyone else in my feed, using oddballs and unloved skeins held doubled. I'm only about six inches into it and I've already used over 900 yards of yarn! (Also don't look too closely, I'm a terrible crocheter.) #rosekimknits #stashbusting #stashbuster #usewhatyouhave

I started again and it looks a million times better. The pattern is Rhyme by @bristolivy and the yarn is Claudia Hand Painted Yarns. And it matches my 2020 bullet journal! #rosekimknits

Twisting the cast on for a two-color brioche hat is an inauspicious start to 2020. 😢 #rosekimknits

I've been knitting the bodies of hats while out and about this holiday season. I need to buckle down and knit some crowns! #rosekimknits #knittersofinstagram

Got inspired by the @yarnworker Weave-along and tried a pooled warp scarf. #rosekimknits #weaving #rigidheddleweaving #rigidheddleloom
