After a run of a few 'meh' books lately , I know Kathy won't let me down. ❤️🙏 #Booksky #Booksky💙 📚

Another biiiiig lesson today. 🧶 I waited way too long to try this on and now I'm going to have to frog the whole thing. It's way too big. But I'm OK with that, I enjoyed the actual knitting regardless and I'll just try again, after triple checking measurements next time. 💛 #Knitsky #Knitting

I'm flipping between these two projects at the moment, at the same time itching to start another one! #Knitting #Knitsky #WipWednesday #thelooseloop 🧶 😂

Just finished this and don't know how to feel about it tbh? It was a bit like reading two different books at the same time, not really for me in the end but there were some sparks in there that caught me. 🤔 #Booksky #Booksky💙 📚

I'm all in now, I've gone and made the investment in these bad boys! 🧶🤭 #Knitting #Knitsky

Ohh next challenge as a new knitter! I've been requested to knit a hat for a teddy, the design is an original, straight out of my 8yo nieces imagination! 😂🧶🐸 I'm going to have to have a creative consultation meeting with her, wish me luck ! #knitsky #knitting

This year is turning into the year I read the most sci-fi I ever have and I don't hate it! #booksky #Booksky💙📚

What a brilliant text from my sister to start the day with! 👏🏻💗 #friday #spéirgorm

Next on the needles! I need to do a bit more before I can properly visualize it but so far so good. It's going to be a wrap around cardigan all going well. 🧶🙏🏻 #Knitsky #Knitting #wip

You know it's love when he counts your stitches for you 😍🧶 He also got 103 so I'm definitely missing one stitch, will I just sneak an extra one in somewhere?! 🫣 #Knitting #Knitsky

Cupán tae, aon duine? 🫖 Making this chap was one of the main reasons I've been learning to knit! #speírgorm #Knitsky #Knitting 💚

Train read! We are off into the West for the weekend... 🚂🚂🚂 #Booksky #Booksky💙 📚

Finally, my first jumper is finished. What a fantastic learning experience, all of the mistakes and bumpy bits represent something new I've figured out! Just need to weave in ends and block. I'm feeling very satisfied! 🧶 #Knitting #Knitsky

All done. 💛 🧶 #showmeyourknits

My first contribution to #showmeyourknits I've just started a little yellow heart which I'll give to a friend of mine who is having surgery soon. 💛 #Knitsky #Knitting Have a great day all. ☀️

Well well well,I've arrived to the point of the end of sleeve and the final cuff of my #firstjumper but I'm not gonna make it with this amount of yarn! I'm considering changing colour for the cuffs which means redoing other one would it be better than buying a new ball just for a cuff? 🤔 🧶 #Knitsky

A blissful half hour today, reading in the fresh air, by the sea. I feel very grateful to live where I do. #Booksky #Booksky💙 📚

I went on a knitting side quest and made this bow for my niece. First time holding different yarns together, was so fiddly at first but am quite proud of myself now it's done! Woohoo! 🧶💕 #Knitsky #Knitting

I've just started this and the pain & confusion is pouring from the pages.If the reader is stunned when the police break the news,it's not possible to imagine how Gisele Pelicot felt.Even though I know parts of the story from news etc this bk is already leaving me shaken.Bravo Gisele. ♥️ #booksky💙 📚

Things have escalated with the knittin'! I'm still working on the first jumper, but I've also started 2 other things. A hairbow for niece for her communion+ cropped cardi for me. The two things couldn't be more opposite in terms of time taken to progress, but it's a lot of fun! #knitsky #knitting 🧶

I took a little break from the jumper to make a requested hat for my 8 yo niece. I'm hoping the weather turns soon so that she doesn't need it for a while but it's all ready now! #knitting #knitsky 🧶

Okey dokey I've finally finished my yoke(y)! I've put the sleeve stitches onto needles rather than scrap yarn, hoping I don't regret that, but I can always change it if it gets too fiddly I guess? I'm so pleased, it's starting to look like a real jumper now! 🧶🙏🏻 #knitsky #knitting #firstjumper

Phew, I just went through the stress of taking this off and putting it back on the needles, another first! Good news is that it goes over my head and seems to be an ok shape so far. Onward we knit! 🧶 #knitsky #knitting #firstjumper

I can't believe it's taken me so long to read this, I'm engrossed straightaway. I'm listening to this one right now but will definitely check in the library for the next one in the series. 🧛🏻‍♀️ #Booksky #Booksky💙📚

I'm diving in and attempting my 1st jumper! Took me a while to get my head around the increases but it's so cool to see it take shape. It's the Step by Step by Florence so there is loads of info on both the pattern and video tutorial. I'm really enjoying the process! 🧶 #knitsky #wipwednesday

A lovely present arrived in the post this morning, I'm very grateful for my friends🙏🏻📚. This novel set in 1950s Dublin and is the One Dublin One Book for 2026 so I'm looking forward to reading it soon. Will be my first time reading John Banville too. 📚 #Booksky #Booksky💙📚

Learning a tough lesson here, mainly to quadruple check that I've cast on the correct amount of stitches for the correct size! 🫣🧶 #Knitting #Knitsky

Next challenge, I'm attempting to make my first top! The pattern is for a short sleeved summer top so fingers crossed that's what I end up with. I'm working with cotton which is a bit different & trickyish but there no harm learning something else new. 💛 #Knitting #Knitsky #WIPWednesday

Lá Fhéile Phadraig mo chairde! ☘️💚☘️💚 @doublezcreative.bsky.social

Well,I decided that I've got enough scarves so I ended up sewing the two ends of the scarf project together last night. My first garment that isn't a hat , woohoo! 🤭🧶 #Knitting #Knitsky
