A Luminary Affair collar- my present for myself!
/u/knittinghobbit,
.. I finished this for myself a little late for Christmas but it was my gift to myself. I tend to block gently and lazily by just doing a soak and tug to even out stitches.

Another FO for 2024!
/u/KroneckerDeltaij,
.. This is based on a pattern called Malaury Sweater but heavily modified. Yarn is Studio Donegal Darnie. The yarn was very splitty so I didn't want to sew large pieces with it.

Why are pattern writers all such loose knitters?
/u/Live_Mess4445,
It''s a bit of a meme by now that almost everyone has to go up a needle size from what the pattern says, to the point that I now usually just start swatching with a larger needle immediately.

Why are these folds happening?
/u/SejiFields,
.. This is my first time seaming sleeves into a top and I seem to be getting these weird folds right above my armpit that get worse the more I move. I’m wondering what is causing this. I was thinking that I maybe messed up the length of my armhole, but honestly that’s just a random guess :/Pattern is …

Bumblebee cardigan
/u/termosabin,
.. My first embroidery!I made the Bumblebee cardigan by auyeva_marina. A bit challenging because her instruction videos are in Russian but it's a nice pattern and she is very responsive.I didn't space out the buttons well but I got fed up with unraveling the Drops Air 🙈.

My first successful attempt!
/u/phatbinchicken,
.. I’ve attempted knitting multiple times over the last few years but as a crocheter it was hard to wrap my head around working with two needles. I tried continental for the first time and I think I’ve got it! This is my first attempt at continental knit & purl
