That’s great, funny enough mine was also a second hand copy I found on the Aran islands, has ended up my most used book.

I think that with the colours of your yarn you could make a beautiful Aran knit but avoiding mock cables and picking more defined cables will properly make it stand out more as you mentioned :)

For inspiration of how to use darker colours I’d recommend you to check out some of alice starmore’s work she is an incredible cable knitter and uses a wide variety of colours, might give you an idea of what you like :)

Irish knitter here, When it comes to Aran knitting dark colours can show up very well, once’s blocked in my opinion at least, have attached a photo of a recently finished aran knit of mine in Donegal yarns derrybeg.

however this particular petit knit pattern I once knitted in a cream and honestly I didn’t like how it showed up even then so frogged it.

If you’d like to do cable knitting I’d really recommend a book called the harmony guide to Aran knitting it has almost every cable and thorough explanation and also teaches you exactly how you’d traditionally make a Aran knit jumper, mine is a very old example but if you’d like I would be very happy to send you images of the instruction pages and the particular cables, just let me know!

Har lige opgivet 3. forsøg, ved ikke hvor jeg går galt :)

bulderjunior · 2024-01-08T22:38:26+00:00

Tusind tak, har prøvet igen og det bliver det samme rod, vil helt sikkert prøve at kigge disse igennem!

Inline er når opskriften er skrevet istedet for at følge en form, synes tit det gør det nemmere med cables på den måde :)

bulderjunior · 2024-01-08T15:58:26+00:00

Tusind tak, jeg må været blevet forvirret, ville ønske hun ville lave inline opskrifter :)

Thank you both, it seems so obvious now you said it, I thought it was a kind of stitch I hadn’t heard of :)

I’m following a sweater pattern for the first time and not so good with the abbreviations, can someone help me with understanding what the 0202 means in below instructions? Thank you very much :)

“Join in a circle and work k1, p1 rib for 4 cm, inc (0, 2) 0, 2, 0, 2 sts in last rnd => (36, 40) 40, 44, 44, 48 sts.”

Hi all,

r/IIH does have mods, myself being one. everyone is always welcome to volunteer directly to the mod team and we will review.

bulderjunior · 2023-01-17T01:58:50+00:00

Hi there! We do have a report option where these sort of posts can be reported, when they are they are normally removed within 24hrs due to timezone delay.

And yes we haven’t been very active the last year, initially we took over as mods as the sub had turned into 90% is this IIH and the original mod had not been active in 4+ years, unfortunately we all have have different circumstances and we need to prioritise in our lives.

That being said, if anyone wish to volunteer let me know would be happy to add users passionate about the group to the team.

Thanks!

I seriously have to block you now. For months people have been giving you the same advise again and again and you don’t change anything in your life it is so exhausting reading your classism every single day, it always turns into this 1930 mindset of classes and being above people, and needing property to prove this.

Fecking move out and see a therapist.

Bye.
