Pillowcase & cake

I only made the green one

Really wasn't sure how to do the closure because I hate pillow zippers but couldn't just have it hanging open. I also didn't like the idea of making extra length and folding it over--too messy. So baby onesie it is lol

Cute little apple to reference my Washington roots lol

Got to use one of the card packs from Pacific Knit Co. Go buy one! I just made a tube.

Christmas Knitting 2025

Going to mass produce tiny stocking tree ornaments. Justified the stuff I bought from Joanns going out of business by saying that is what I would do.

I need to bust my stash. Some of the stash busting involved red and green that I bought the FIRST time that I made christmas ornaments. So yarn that has come with us from WA to LA to GA. I sneezed a lot using some of the worst of it.

Little sweater ornament For Friend

 Made a mini of this previous cardigan sweaterne with scraps from the same. Someone saw the previous one, asked for something similar, and I told her I didn't have time in that season for a full piece and made her a mini!

Knitted just a teal square and then picked up to knit the pieces: collar, sleeves, button hem, and stitched over little black x shapes instead of trying to find and attach some sort of row of buttons.

I-cord loopy of course.

I could have done it a lot more neatly but the first one is always the roughest but cutest.

Baby penguin for friend

Go to JoJo's Fresh Market on Dallas Highway near the enterprise!

Done! Little tomato to go on the apron!

Apron looking great. Eyes a little lopsided, but teens are supposed to look weird, right? Not done growing?

Absolutely love the little happy feet.

Decided for a triangle base and feet flaps so it could sit without falling over.

Pacific Knit Co doodle card packs

Visiting home and went to a LYS to kill some time. Found these super cute decks. I had seen them on the website but seeing them in person was really different and I just had to buy some. 

Sheep sweater for bestie

Bestie asked me to make the same purple Sheep Happens  for her :)

Bestie got some square addi novel lace! will be the same purple as mine

US size 6 in case they change my gauge as square needles are known to for some. Also I used size 6 for the main body of my sheep sweater.

Cabled Concerto for co-worker

Finished! 05/30/2025...sort of. Have to block it and maybe extend the collar. Or maybe it's fine as is.

Switching to grey bc don't have enough teal. One sleeve has almost used the whole skein. The original pattern was just too hard to keep straight so I decided to go with one extending cable with C4F and C4B for right and left.

--- 

Grey for sleeves:

1 grey skein right sleeve

1 grey skein left sleeve

Teal:

2-3 skeins on back

1 and 1 going on front left

1 and 1 going on front right

0 sleeve

Total so far: 7?
