Vacation Yarn and Knits - Episode 44 | Diary of a Sweater Knitter

Ойын-сауық

Welcome to my crafty corner of the internet, where I talk about my weekly knitting and crochet projects. Sometimes I'll talk about yarn that I've bought and every week I try to bring some fun patterns that I've run across. Thank you for coming!
I've been working on a variety of different projects while on vacation this week. I finished my Flax sock by Tin Can Knits and I'm pretty happy with it. I also started my first big goal cardigan for this year!
Make sure to comment below with your favorite pattern mentioned this week for a chance!

    I love that color changing yarn you got on vacation! I don’t use a shopping cart but I “favorite” a lot of patterns. Then I can go back and browse those. 😊

    I love how it’s easy to store lists on Ravelry. It makes me so happy to be able to go back to patterns that have caught my eye in the past 🙂

    Yes! I’ve also learned to use the Tags and Bundles to keep my favorites organized. I use the Comments to make note of the yarn and/or colors I am thinking about, and the number of skeins I would need. It makes it so much easier to shop with purpose.

    What I thought was funny was you saying, I’m all about subtle so I chose this Electric Purple 🤣 beautiful colors of all your new yarns.

    Your Flax sweater looks great! I finished a Harlow Sweater this past week but it is too hot to wear it so that will have to wait 😊 Love your plan for the Hipster top, can’t wait to see how that works up. I hope you have a nice week.

    Oh, I just took a look at the Harlow sweater pattern and the v-neck Harlow. Both look so comfy! It’ll be sweater season before we know it. I hope that you have an awesome week as well 🙂

    Fiber Optic Yarns has a double booth at Wisconsin Sheep & Wool Festival (September 6-8 this year) and they are always one of my favorites. I would love to use one of their gradients for a colorwork yoke. Their range of colors is amazing - it will be so hard to choose!

    They had such a beautiful selection at the store. It would be so much fun to see them (and all the other vendors) at a festival! Using the gradient for a color work yoke is an awesome idea. I’m going to see if my kiddos will go for that over another hat 🙂❤️. I have always thought the color changing yokes are so pretty.

    I'm a big fan of Fiber Optic Yarn. I'd love to visit the store but I'm out here on the west coast. On the Ravelry cart issue, very guilty as charged. Right now I have close to a dozen patterns in my cart😂😂😂😂

    Joyce, if you ever get a chance - the store is amazing. All of the people that I interacted with were so kind. I told my husband that I wish they were closer to us 🙂. As for the patterns in my cart.. 😂

    I love the idea of using my queue so that I can rearrange the order of my projects. I bet it would make my pattern planning more organized 🙂
