I've always been a bit scared of real knitting, wearable socks and scarves and such. Think I might have to give it a go now after finding a cute li'l dolly I made when I was a kid  http://fi.somethingawful.com/is/img75/9976/dsc00076w.jpg

hollaback grandma that's an awesome hat also, I am really excited about trying out cables now! Now that I've worked out how images work, here's my meagre contribution to the thread... http://fi.somethingawful.com/is/img214/3521/dsc00078ali.jpg edit: well that totally didn't work. guess I don't have it figured out :/

I knit a hat In a way it's hideous  And it's far too big for me But despite the grumpy look on my face I love it and I love wearing it very much. Onionetta fucked around with this message at 23:46 on Apr 15, 2024 |

I just finished my first ever sweater! It's a crazy, dumb-looking, multi-coloured monstrosity made with acrylic yarn because I lack taste and refinement. Front  Back  Also because I had no experience knitting sweaters I just followed the instruction to measure around my boobs and knit according to that. Somehow I failed to realise until I'd sewn it together just how much too big for me it would be.  It's a drat tent. That said, I put way too much work into this NOT to wear it, so maybe a belt...?    On the bright side, I don't really mind looking crazy, and it did only take a few months so I'm still quite proud of myself. I'll make something a little more understated next time. Edit: Sorry about the crappy photos, that's the only mirror in the house and the mess isn't mine I swear, my housemates are (very pleasant) slobs

Awww shucks you guys! Thanks for all the nice comments I am pretty happy with it, I'm just suffering from the benefit of hindsight I guess. Gotta start somewhere! Next one I make will be super-chic Also I'm totally doing that Eva scarf as a Christmas present this year Wedemeyer.

AltruisticNemesis posted:Is there a pattern for this? I want to make an obnoxiously rainbow-y awesome sweater vest! Thanks Nemesis! I got the pattern from a book I bought, called 25 Beaded Knits by Debbie Abrahams, published by C&B Crafts. I don't know if I'm allowed upload the pattern but my guess is not, due to copyright and such

Just finished the multnomah shawl from ravelry  here's a better view of the edging  I was really happy with it, I think it looks quite well for how simple the pattern actually is. Edit: clicking on those makes them absolutely huge and I have no idea how to fix it

Aerofallosov posted:Yup! Don't mind the goober wearing the sweater. I made the sleeves a little bit shorter because I mismeasured, but it is nice I won't have to worry about catching things with a long sleeve. Looks awesome! I'm pretty sure the hems and seams on the first sweater I ever made were nowhere near as neat as that haha
