My projects for the #FallFinishAlong! Left to right: 2x2 rib hat, purely for knitting belt practice. Sleeves for a baby cardigan. #Sarkle jumper for my mum, lower hems on provisional cast on so I can make them *just so*, only she’s on the other side of the continent now and can’t try it on… Rainbow booties for a second baby. Heel turn and foot of a sock. #knitting @knitting@a.gup.pe @knitting@lemmy.world

@venite @knitting@a.gup.pe @knitting@lemmy.world I love how everyone is doing these thoughtful "displays" of the WIPs to be tackled as part of the #FallFinishAlong. Kudos again to @consumableJoy for conceptualizing and spearheading this project! 🙏🧶❤️

Just logged into Lemmy to mention the finishalong and I see I have been beaten to it!

That's a lot of stuff you have planned, best of luck.

My goals are across all kinds of crafts but knitting-wise, I've got some socks on the go and a jumper that's been abandoned on sleeve island for way too long. May all of our various projects come to a satisfying conclusion!

@thegiddystitcher thank you! It looks like a lot, but the baby things are of course teeny, the jumper is a really fun, fast knit and I need all the positive finishing vibes for those socks: the yarn is uncomfortable to knit with and I made something up pattern-wise on the first sock, didn’t write it down and now can’t really remember! So I just need to get on with it and finish the things.

Oh lord, haha, very relatable. Why do we persist in telling ourselves we'll remember what we did?!

Godspeed 🙏

#FallFinishAlong progress: finished the booties and socks, baby cardigan is waiting for the button to arrive, jumper is waiting for my mum to try it on and decide on sleeve/hem length (will block it beforehand), found a newborn hat that still needed blocking. Decided not to work on the ribbed hat because it doesn’t need finishAlong mojo. Picked up my huge striped #crochet #harbourBlanket instead. @knitting@a.gup.pe @knitting@lemmy.world #knitting
