I was told you might like that here.

Many different stitches. From bottom to the top:

  1. I improvised it, but I'm sure someone already made that and there is a name for it out there
  2. Shell stitch https://pin.it/1JNLziWLj
  3. "Stachelmuster" from the book "Häkeln" by Claire Montgomerie. English title: "Crochet Stitches - Step By Step"
  4. https://pin.it/3Nn5UKF44

The stitches above are all from the book I mentioned in 3.

Linked double crochet is lowkey a sexy stitch

Dare I say my slip stitch ribbing isn't too bad either.

My first attempt at a waffle stitch

Making a scarf at my toddler’s request and thought it would be a fun stitch to try, and bonus unplanned pooling at that!

My first lace weight yarn project!

Picked up knitting after a ~2 year quilting/embroidery kick, and I am chuffed with the outcome! Pattern is 'Easy Bralette' by Svetlana Volkova and I converted the gauge to work for the 2ply lace weight superwash merino yarn I dyed.

Started with the bread, now we’re here 🥪

[This is my photo; I just added labels in case some of the items were not easily identifiable.]

Just one more slice of bread to go! OH and I am putting it all in a soft zipper lunchbox and writing "Sandwich Shop" on it with acrylic markers. 🥹☺️ My niece is 16 months old and I cannot wait to give this to her.

In progress hat

Had to show off the hat I’m currently working on!! I’m in mortuary school and have a lot of time to kill after I’m done working on class work so I’ve started a beanie… with sock yarn. Probably not my smartest idea, but definitely the best time killer. The yarn is from a local shop and it’s all in half double stitches. Any advice is welcome!
