FO! Finished this rainbow sweater for a friends kid. Can’t go wrong with flax light and chroma yarn in Pegasus color 🦄 with some white stripes to contrast. Next is the “purple rainbow sweater” for her little brother to match 👧👦 . #merinastrand #flaxlight #chromayarn #chromapegasus #sistersweater #knittersofinstagram #sweaterknitting #knittingsweaters #quarantineknitting https://www.instagram.com/p/CAaVHvRpVnF/?igshid=1u7gngtv4xdbo

No #tourdefleece2018 for me this year BUT THIS HAPPENED!! Trevor, for our anniversary, gave me an adult sweaters quantity worth of yarn. This would be a first! . Knitting this is may seem completely from track from my #mybakersdozen project, bc it is, but I almost died in February and I don’t wanna die before I knit myself a sweater! So I’m going to spend all the time I would have spent spinning working on the sweater ~ I’m hoping for balance 😉 💙 #ravelry #flaxlight #flaxlightsweater #tincanknits #sweater #knit #knitting #wip #yarn #malabrigo #yarnporn #knitallthethings #firstsweater

Flax Light

I finally finished the sweater that I’ve had on my needles since August! I had taken quite a break from it to knit Christmas presents, but following the holidays I picked it back up again and was determined to finish it.

I love how it turned out! There’s enough positive ease to make it just the right amount of oversized, without looking too huge on me. Funny story - when I first blocked it, I tried to lay it out flat to dry, and it grew so much that it could have fit a gorilla. My friends tried to convince me that it couldn’t be that bad, but one look at it and they were laughing so hard they cried. It was, in fact, that bad. After some some frantic research regarding the yarn, I realized it was superwash, wet it again and threw it in the dryer to dry. Thankfully that worked, and I’ll have to do that from now on when I wash it!

My Ravelry project is here, and the pattern is a free one by Tin Can Knits (here). I modified the neckline to add a scoop as well as the gauge to be able to use this yarn, but otherwise I knit it as written. I would definitely recommend it, and may eventually knit it again!

Just a short trip onto sleeve island to finish this Flaxlight sweater for my son Theo😊. He loves all things red so I dyed up this lovely cherry shade just for him❤then added the few stripes just to break it up a little Pattern by @tincanknits . #onmyneedles #flaxlightsweater #tincanknits #sweaterknitting #sweaterweather #sweater #handdyedyarn #yarnislife #knitterlife #knitlife #knitwip #yarnlover #nevernotknitting https://www.instagram.com/p/BtYRzFilO3_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ara9vllq69q9

A sleeve is forming on my long neglected #flaxlightsweater . Switching from circular needles to dpn's was definitely a good idea for me. . #knitting #knittersofinstagram #sleeveknitting #flaxlight #dpns https://ift.tt/2zD9s5D

Nearing the end of #yarnlovechallenge and I'm completely stumped by the prompt "favourite tip" - all my favourite knitting tips have completely flown out of my head! So here's a related tip: side lighting! This one window in my apartment is perfect for photographing my knitting... 😉 I decided to switch things up for the #emilieetpaulekal and I'm now doing a #flaxlight sweater in this stunning @katsriversidestudio one of a kind colourway!. . . #yarn #knittersofinstagram #knittingaddict #nevernotknitting #crafternoon #ourmakerlife #knittinginspiration #knitspiration #wrapupwarm #makersgonnamake #knittersgonnaknit #fingeringweight #skinnysingle #yarnporn #balletpink #nofilter #photographytip #ooak #indiedyer #tincanknits #spring #sidelighting http://ift.tt/2l8zfrI

And done! I’m not sure about the colouring though, I may have to investigate about how to match colours on the sleeves with the body for future knits, as they were clearly done afterwards, and I may need multiple skeins to avoid weird banding

I know it's easy to think dyers, and experienced knitters have their act together. Well, it's not true. This baby sweater needs to be done in a few weeks. I didnt realize until I started the sleeve that I made a size smaller than I intended. 🤦‍♀️ oops! It should still work, but not what I intended. This is why I print the sweater patterns and mark them up. I thought this would be easy enough to just go off my phone. Lesson learned.
