I am not a sock knitter, but I do love a good pair of slippers. After gifting dozens to other people, I finally made myself this pair a number of years ago. They’re still going strong! (Pattern is Options Slippers for Women from Kris Basta, available on … ift.tt/326ubLJ

Staying cozy (today’s #fiberuarychallenge prompt) this chilly morning under a blanket with my feline companion. Almost done with the bodice of this baby dress—sleeves next! 🙌 . #fiberuary #designinprogress #mosaicknitting #slipstitchcolorwork #knitsf… ift.tt/3bWegDZ

Throwback project! This was the first thing I ever designed myself, all the way back in 2006. I got a bunch of super soft Mission Falls 1824 Wool on clearance when they discontinued it and couldn’t find a blanket pattern I liked, so I figured it couldn’t… ift.tt/39ZrdLP

Sometimes you gotta hang with the teething baby who should be sleeping instead of knitting in front of the TV like you want. Sigh. (Rewatching Castle, one of our favorite procedurals!) . #fiberuarychallenge #fiberuary #knitdesignerlife #knittingwithkids … ift.tt/32hfYvi

I was going to skip today’s #fiberuary challenge prompt (Sunday Funday) because my eldest coming down with pink eye and all our plans for the near future getting canceled isn’t my idea of fun, sigh. But then I tried this WIP on my daughter after ripping … ift.tt/3a02fvK

Matching is today’s #fiberuarychallenge prompt! I knit up two sizes as samples for my Whippersnapper sweater pattern (both versions in gorgeous Miss Babs Yummy 2-Ply Toes), but I never got pics on both of my sons because the younger one grew out of … ift.tt/2v198hz

Eulalie Coat is live on Ravelry! It’s sized from 3-6 months up to 6-8 years and is worked up in wonderfully squishy malabrigo Rios, my all-time-favorite desert island yarn. Take 20% off this pattern from now through the end of the month with the cou… ift.tt/2SVEDCF

They might not be the currently hot project bags, but my most used ones are the set of super-soft drawstring bags my sister-in-law bought me in New Zealand a few years ago. They’re different sizes for different projects, easy to squish into a computer ba… ift.tt/38080bk

Portland is blessed with many local yarn stores, but I think @starlightknittingsociety might just be my favorite. In addition to their huge selection of yummy yarns and adorable premises, my absolute favorite feature is this well-stocked kids’ room. My … ift.tt/2w5CIm6

I find garter stitch exceptionally relaxing. I shied away from using it in designs for a long time because of an idea that it was somehow... too beginner, or something? I think those first few wonky garter stitch scarves when I first learned to knit warp… ift.tt/3cgPyhM

“Up next” for the penultimate day of the #fiberuarychallenge: this little slipped-stitch colorwork vest! It will surprise probably no one that it’s worked in Malabrigo, their Arroyo base this time. I’m hoping to have the pattern up for testing later toda… ift.tt/2Pxnq0o

Little Tegan would like to remind you that today is the LAST DAY to save 20% on the new Eulalie Coat pattern with the coupon code EULALA on Ravelry! Squishy, relaxing garter stitch with just enough interest (garter rib, short-rowed sleeve caps, a doubled… ift.tt/39ge3tK

I’ve been avoiding using this skein of Malabrigo Mecha in Persia that’s been hanging out in my stash for years because I was afraid the dark color wouldn’t show texture well. But I worked up a swatch to see if it would work for a Malabrigo March hat desi… ift.tt/3cwt2Sp

My life can be pretty hectic on a day-to-day basis, but when I can occasionally carve out fifteen minutes to knit in peace before school pickup, all is well with the world. 💕 . #designinprogress #placesyoucanknit #knittingismyyoga #knitknitknit #knit… ift.tt/2VQoH6B

My Malabrigo March sale was supposed to be ending tomorrow. But now that most of the knitters I know are facing extended time at home (here, it’s schools, libraries, and virtually all activities closed until at least the end of the month, and probably a … ift.tt/3aVFnhd

Finished my #MalabrigoMarch hat in Mecha, started to write up the pattern... and then got totally distracted by the idea of a matching baby hat, using the exact same CO and chart, but a lighter weight yarn and smaller needles. So presto—meet the hat’s li… ift.tt/2INpnSx
