May I have the confidence and audacity of this knitting pattern that suggests I buy 11 different hanks of yarn at $28 each in order to knit ONE PAIR of socks

#knitting #knitting pattern #it’s color work so ten of those hanks would only use a few yards #but can you imagine the investment? no way #knitting patterns #sock knitting #even with a yarn sub I’m kinda exhausted #it’s cute but not that cute

You know that post that's like, if you feel like your life is going too fast, do something hard? Well it's correct, but I don't think I needed to go quite as hard as deciding to crochet this blanket, which I will be lucky to finish by this time next year.

#it has like 7 different kinds of cabling #it's like 30 hanks of yarn #yes hank is the actual term #i just finished 1 #it's been a month #s narrates her life

got some yarn for a couple winter projects im super excited about

#yelling and screaming at myself that spending some money twice a year on a hobby i enjoy dearly isnt wrong #also considering im not even gonna have to buy gaiden in a couple months since its coming to gamepass this is like #the money i had already singled out for that im not going over budget here #im gonna make the halibut sweater for myself (which is gonna take a while because i dont do colorwork at all and i want it to come out good #and another beanie for my partner cause he has to be outside a lot in winter and apparently the one i made him last year was a lifesaver #i also tried out a new yarn shop cause my usual one has stopped stocking my preferred brand #i was super happy with the other shop but they literally only sell hand dyed hanks now and i just cant spend 100€ per sweater

my current crochet project, i'm making a touque for my boyfriend for his birthday next week 😊 hopefully i can get it done by then lol, it's working up pretty quickly at least. the yarn i'm using is malabrigo worsted 100% wool and it's soo soft.. i think it'll make a really cozy and warm hat!!

#the stitch is single crochet stitch worked into the back loop only.. kind of makes it look knitted #it's nice and stretchy too.. i've never done this stitch before #learning to crochet #crochet #i had to hand wind the yarn from a hank into that ball and it literally took me like 2 hours.. i need a swift and a ball winder so bad #mycrochet

[caedogeist-rights]

feeling an incredibly strong desire to make another blanket. regrettably that requires buying a shit ton of yarn. the world is cruel and my stash is full of single skeins

#please ignore the 1400 yds of yarn sitting in my closet ready to be made into a sweater. or the #or the ~1k yards of sport weight also in my closet that i want to make into a wrap or the like #we must Blanket. we must Project. we must not deal with fuckin twisted hanks of yarn theyre. aaaugh #grin talk

[foxcassius]

i HATEEEEE the way yarn is sold. WIND IT BEFORE YOU SHIP IT TO ME.

#this is a fucking WRECK im KILLINGGGGGG #stupid stupid stupid stupid hanks of yarn. fuck this. WIND THE YARN BEFORE YOU SEND IT. #t

part 2 of today’s notes, just yarn stuff

Oh god, they don’t even make Fun Fur yarn anymore! D:

This is what I get for using other people’s destash yarns. On the other hand, Hobby Lobby has another brand of “eyelash” yarn. Oh, the Michael’s website has another-nother brand; didn’t see it in the store, though. I spent a LOT of time there, too. Amazon has options, too, so I guess I’ll wait to order there.

Thankfully, that’ll keep me out of JoAnn’s and HL. Tomorrow’s shopping will be returning to Goodwill and then a music store.

Y’know, there were some really pretty, soft yarns that could’ve been substitutes, today. One was an alpaca blend, and the other was Caron Latte Cakes in “red macaron”. They were so soft and lovely that it kinda defeated the purpose of pairing the “fur” thing with Red Heart Super Saver. These were bulky enough on their own. ========

Also, my phone isn’t letting me transfer files (photos) via usb. I’m irked, because I’d love to share some pics right now. Gotta wait to get home, so I can grab my password notebook and log in on my phone. *sigh* Ah technology.

#daily notes #knitting notes #please congratulate me only buying 3 balls of yarn #and 5 hanks of embroidery floss #just black and white so i didn't go too crazy

I went to the Gagetown Fibre Gathering yesterday to browse the local artisans selling yarn, finished objects made from different fibres, raw fleece and some practicing their crafts. These are three hanks I picked up, called Sassy Zebra Sock Yarn from a local independent dyer, @sweetskeinomine #GagetownFibreGathering #yarn #hanks #fibrearts #colourbursts

I know Hobby Lobby isn't the ideal yarn store but I had a gift card so I went in to shop around. Check this out! $125 worth of yarn for $30?! That's some good clearance 👍🏻

#yarn #what a deal #the hanks are even superwash

[frodo-of-the-nine-fingers]

the joann's shopping list starts going and it don't stop going

#going to have to restrain myself #AND I'm going to go to a fiber fest this weekend 😬 #i probably wont buy anything there at least maybe some yarn idk i dont have a yarn swift tho and i feel like the hanks would be incredibly #annoying without it 🤔

Good: my swatch looks excellent. Extremely pleased with my color choice and design and colorwork in the round with large, evenly sized yarn balls is far more pleasant than my previous experiences have been with flat knitting or a tiny, wildly splitty ball paired with a normal ball.

Bad: my swatch is a full inch+ too small (about 3 cm)

.

I have no experience knowing how to size up. That seems a pretty sizable difference? I guess I also tend towards knitting pretty tightly. But how many needles to size up? I suppose I could use the larger set I have and see if that’s too big, and then if it is, go to a craft store and get a goldilocks pair.

#the good news is that while the yarn in the store all seemed way softer and infinitely beyond my spinning capacity #balled up it's really not that different in texture and thickness #from my homespun that is #so the difference is not as stark as i imagined #though the fineness of individual strands certainly is #as well as the number of them #(can't imagine doing more than two ply for the forseeable future #also now i finally get why yarn swifts are a thing #because when working with store-wound skeins ball winding was a cinch #but with the hanks that fancy yarn comes in? gotta tension that stuff out if you want a chance of tangle-less winding #and let's just say using my knees got tiring
