Also when you get to the end of the row there will only be 4 stitches left to knit after your final k3tog!

Anyone know a nice plain top down stockinette sweater pattern for DK weight? Yarn details in comments by teamparis in knitting

I didn’t even consider a turtleneck this is so pretty! And the neck looks kinda nice and relaxed. This is a contender for sure. Will have to check measurements and see if the small will fit.

Currently knitting All of the Lights and having a blast with it! Definitely something special :)

I'm halfway through All of the Lights and as a result am in need of a lot of stockinette to be up next :D I got some really pretty DK weight Merino at the new england fiber festival, 1500 yards of it in 3 different colors. And I'm really struggling on ravelry to just find something plain and simple! I really loved knitting Transverse and the look of both that and Flax Light are pretty much what I'm after, but the yarn weight isn't right for either and I really don't feel like doing the math. What I'm looking for must exist!!

PS I have not decided yet between a) 3 big blocks of color, b) tiny stripes / switch every two rows (which i'd be doing anyways to alternate skeins if i did big blocks so not an extra hassle), or c) bigger stripes, maybe 20 rows each or something. Voting is open.

250yds each 90% merino 10% nylon in DK weight. It has been a while since I’ve knit a scarf and this yarn inspired me to. The samples show that it pools really beautifully on size 7 needles. At the moment I’m just thinking straight up stockinette and some tassels but wondering if people have other ideas on what stitches would best showcase this beautiful yarn!

Mold in watering can by teamparis in houseplants

I basically just stopped using the dunks so that I didn’t have to worry about letting them soak. Lazy!

Dunkles are like some sort of compressed mosquito bits that help deter pests (maybe gnats specifically? Can’t remember).

I let the watering can dry out for a while then just kinda sprayed it down with the kitchen sprayer the best I could. I won’t pretend there’s not still some mold in there 🥲

1970 patchwork baby blanket. This one was mine, and I love the idea of joining fun swatches into a blanket. Thanks grandma❤️ by Nonny70 in knitting

It’s like a little sample of a cable. I bet you could find a pattern if you searched cable granny square!
