Just keep knitting, right? I'm enjoying my progress on my The Daydreamer by @dreareneeknits, even if I did have to start it over after some gauge issues. Tiny cables are keeping my mind occupied and lots of home time means it keep ticking over between meals and laundry and entertaining a toddler. Yarn is G-uld no.4 that I picked up from @knitwithattitude at Unravel, held together with some ancient stash @indigodragonfly merino/silk lace. Are you finding yourself leaning towards simple as mindless or complicated and engrossing in these strange times? #thedaydreamersweater #dreareneeknits #indigodragonflyyarn #quarantineknitting

Have you seen the teasers that @knitwithattitude has been posting about their new book? They are currently fundraising via Kickstarter to raise funds to self publish a book of patterns celebrating their first 10 years in business! This sneak peak is of the shawl I designed for the collection, using Vivacious 4pky and Cumulus from @fyberspates. I've had the construction in mind for years and it was so good to get it out of my head and into the world. You can read more about the book and campaign through the link in the @knitwithattitude bio. I can't wait to see the rest of the designs and the finished project! #knitwithattitude10years #knitwithattitude #knittingwithattitude #knitwithattitude2020 #fyberspates

Finally able to show off this finished quilt! One of my hand made gifts for the holidays was this #tailfeatherquilt that I made for my nephew. Luckily it was one of the less exciting gifts for a 4 year old as I had to give it with the binding only partially sewn down, but I was able to finish the handsewing last night before we flew home from Ireland today. I am eternally grateful that we were so lucky with the weather for the pictures! The pattern is Tail Feather by @suzyquilts and it was made with mostly stash, old Castle Peeps by @lizzyhouse and various others thrown in. The pattern was really great and came together pretty quickly, no fussy bits or loads of matching points. I hope it lasts him a good long time. #handmadeholiday #suzyquiltspatterns

At 9pm last night I decided that I didn't need to totally finish our stockings. We pegged a handknit sock to the back and went to the pub with my in-laws instead. I love how the front looks and I don't want to rush the end of it. They worked just fine and the stress wasn't going to be worth it. Most of my crafting is going to be given not quite finished, but that's fine. Better done right in a bit more time than rushed. Comfort to those who need it and joy to all, whether you celebrate or not. Hally holidays from us! #handmadeholiday #feltstocking #diystockings
