My latest project: Karui by Heidemarie Kaiser. Just finishing up the first sleeve, still have to do the second sleeve and the neck ribbing. #knitting...

https://pixelfed.eu/p/yazzea/784...

Gray knitting on a black leather background. It is scrunched up on a circular knitting needle knitting needle. The neck opening with a provisional cast-on is discernible on top.

Same knitting in a later stage, laid out flat on a black leather background. Sleeve stitches are on waste yarn, body is already knit until about waistline. The knitting is plain stockinette stitch.

Me knitting on the couch, over the back of the cream colored cat on my belly.

Finished 🥰 #crochet #blanket #ripple #neatripple

https://pixelfed.eu/p/yazzea/778...

A folded striped crochet blanket in bright colors. The edges are turned up to show the different colors in an imterlocking ripple pattern. A large gray cat sits on the back half of the blanket, only his lower half is visible.

The same blanket, not as neatly folded, more crumpled up.
The four round border is better visible now, colors are pistachio green, aster blue, magenta and petrol.

The full blanket, laid out flat on the floor. All 18 colors in random interlocking ripple stripes are visible.

Finished 🥰

Testing things with the flatbed knitting machine. Well, needs work. And some more calculations. #knitting #machineknitting #flatbedknitting #knitting...

Test project, laid out on an ironing board. A small triangular shawl in light blue yarn, stockinette stitch, with knitted on 1x1 rib borders - which did not work out well. One short side has more rows than the other, the miter is a train wreck, and the yarn ran out, so I changed to light brown for the last rows.
The long side ribbing is completely in light brown.
I‘ll probably make a rectangular shawl after all…

Today's #mending: my favorite plötulopi vest 🥰

https://pixelfed.eu/p/yazzea/776...

Top part of a gray vest with a patterned yoke in dark red, gray and white on a black leather background. I mended some stitches in the lower white part. It blends in quite well and isn't obvious.

The same vest l now with the mended spot circled in red. It’s in white and a bit to the right from center chest, on the last pattern rows.

Tha Making of a pair of Raised Back Sneaker Socks with deep heels on a #CircularSockMachine #CSM #knitting #sockknitting Alt-Text contains descriptio...

https://pixelfed.eu/p/yazzea/768...

View from slightly above of a CSM. It‘s a red Erlbach Gearhart with a 96 needle cylinder. It is set up to start a project, with the cast-on bonnet already hung on every other needle up to the last few needles. Start of rounds is at 3 o‘clock.

Same view of the machine. The cast-on bonnet is further down inside the cylinder now, with knit stockinette stitch fabric above it. After the bonnet there‘s a few rounds of white waste yarn (blue arrow), blue nylon cord/ravel cord (green arrow), and the white project yarn on top (yellow arrow).

Hanging the hem. Viewpoint is still the same (and will stay the same). I I I cranked 18 rounds of project yarn, and hang the hem now which will form the upper edge of the sock. Every stitch of the first round after the ravel cord (red marks) has to be put on the corresponding needle with the live stitch (blue arrows) on it so they can be knit together in the next round. The first row dropped a stitch (red circle), but I caught all strands, so nothing bad will happen.

Preparing to raise the back leg above the heel with short rows. The back half needles of the cylinder and 9 more needles on either side of the cylinder are raised out of work already (green mark).

Finished short rows. Now eight more needles, four pairs of two, on either side are raised out of work; each nedle pair has a yarn wrap around it (red marks) to prevent holes at the short row turning points.

Start of the heel in gray yarn. The needles in half of the cylinder are raised out of work again. The deep heel has already been worked over seven neeedles on either side (red marks) which added 14 rows to the heel depth which looks like a gray crescent inside the nearer half of the cylinder.

Finished gray heel and already a few foot rounds in white yarn worked over it. The additional rows (decreases and increases) are marked in red.

The second sock in the making, hanging the hem. The second sock follows the first one immediately, only separated by a few rounds of waste yarn (yellow arrow), and again a round of ravel cord (red arrow). Inside the cylinder, the toe of the first sock in blue yarn is visible (blue arrow). The toe is made like a heel with short rows, but only over half the cylinder.

Finished socks fresh off the machine laid out on gray carpet, one above the other. With the toe and the heel both visible, it’s the heel is much larger because of the added needle/rows (red lines, blue marks). The toes still have to be closed with kitchener or finchley grafts, and the yellow waste yarn will then be removed.

A garter stitch knitted blanket laid out on a wooden floor. The blanket has five wide vertical panels in colors rust, mustard, brown, mustard and rust, and a brown crochet border. In the middle of the left rust panel is a hole, a little further down in the adjoining mustard panel, too. The brown panel looks okay, just some thin spots. The right mustard panel has a big hole which was mended very inexpertly, but at least they tried.

A closer view of the right mustard panel with the inexpertly mended hole. It looks messy, the fabric is pulled together and yarn ends are sticking out.

So I have this knitted wool blanket. My great-grandmother made it, more than 50 years ago. She was almost 90 and blind by then, ruined her eyes with whitework embroidery, and all kinds of fine needlework. It was her job and her passion, she couldn’t keep her hands still.
This blanket has some moth holes and thin spots and I‘m going to mend it, probably very visibly :)

Two blue sneaker socks laid out on a black leather background. The sock on the top is done, the sock on the bottom still needs to be sewn closed across the toes, there‘s still white divider yarn attached to the live stitches.

The result.

#Sunday activity: #knitting a pair of sneaker #socks with the #CSM #CircularSockMachine

https://pixelfed.eu/p/yazzea/756...

A red hand-crank circular sock machine with a 96-needle cylinder. On the machine is a work in progress, a pair of blue sneaker socks. The first sock is done already and can be seen under the machine with weights hanging from it. The knitted fabric close to the needles is white divider yarn, and the last knitted row is light blue fishing line as ravel cord.
The machine is attached to a small work bench with cones of yarn, boxes with needles and some tools on it.
