I design knitting patterns in 7 sizes for easily bored knitters. I live in Sweden and I’m a liberal anti-racist ✊🏽 www.colorwayknits.com ColorwayKnits on Ravelry.
My vest of many colors 🧶 (in a decent elevator selfie 🤓). Would you be interested in a test knit? #knittingdesign #testknittingcandidate
Tried to show you the lovely back of my cardi. Didn’t go according to plan 🤪🧶 #knittingdesign #knitsky
Finished my car knitting project a few days ago and it has been approved by its receiver! (although way too hot to wear here in Alsace)🧶 #knitsky #travelknit
On a roadtrip through Germany and what do I find at the bottom floor of today’s hotel? A very apetizing 🧶 yarn store!!! Probably the best first impression ever 😍 #knitsky #knitting and #travelling
Best summer knitting spot - and a fun WIP that will soon be an FO. 🧶 #summerknitting #knitsky
My gradient vest is growing in a satisfactory way 🌈🧶 #knittingdesign #scrapyarn
I do have a weak spot for a nice gradient 🌈🧶 #knittingdesign
This will be the Vest of many colors; a gradient vest with grey as the main color of this stitch pattern 🌈 🧶 Come follow along! #knittingdesign
Knitting in public i Paris. My app claims it’s only 33 degrees now but I doubt it 🥵🧶 #knitinpublic
My Sirena is done and it’s time for blocking 🧶 #shawlknitting
I have reached Level 3 in coziness ☀️🐶🧶 #knittingwithdog #knitsky
Design workshop on my balcony. It’s rare that it’s not too windy 🧶 #knittingdesign #knitsky
A cowl like this is the perfect solution when you just want a little coziness but not a full shawl or cardi 👌🏽 This pattern is my own, the Korean meanders, and it’s available both long and short and with a wide and snug neck. #knitsky #knittingdesign
I’m working on Melissa Leapman’s Sirena shawl and although I took it on the subway I think I didn’t knit in public, only tinked in public 😅 #knitsky #knitinpublic
Finally it’s time for the test knitting call for the Turbulence sweater 🤩 that was meant to come out a year ago 🫣 It is knit in DK of some slippery/shiny variety and uses 800-1450 meters of yarn. Sizes Small through 4XL. Deadline is 28 August. 🧶 #knittingdesign #testknitting
Won yarn chicken 🧶🐓and finished the cardi. And once again my button stash was up for the challenge 💪🏽 #knittingdesign #knittingforfamily
Looks like I’m in for a game of yarn chicken 🧶🐓 - baby’s growing! #knitsky #knittingforfamily
An update on my cardigan #WIP for a wee little lady 😍🧶 #knittingforfamily
For this week’s #showmeyourknits ; one of the skeins from my Fru Fjellmans delivery jumped straight onto my needles to become a cardigan for my niece 🧶😍 #knitsky #knittingforfamily
Oh and I finished this eternity knit in silk 🧶 with a support thread of linen - the DRAPE 😍 oh my. #knitsky #knittingdesign
Close-up of the Turbulence sweater yoke, that I showed in its entirety yesterday. If you look closely you can see there are some small bobbles to emphasize the structure 🤓🧶 #knitsky #knittingdesign #testknitcoming
I pulled myself together and weote down the pattern 😅 It’s currently in editing but will be ready for teststart within two weeks. Available sizes range from (CYC) Small to 4XL and the deadline will be end of August. Let me know if you’re interested! #knitsky #testknitting #knittingdesign
Today I have a fitness hack for you 😮 if you knit a sweater top-down and work the sleeves before the body you can work on it while biking at the gym 🚲🧶 #knitfit
Third clutch accomplished 💪🏽 but this has to stop or I will be wading in clutches 🥺 🧶 #knitsky #knittingdesign #knitclutch
