That yarn looks great, nice job!

Thank you! It’s Lady Godiva by Handmaiden. Beautiful wool/silk blend.

Not sure if it's you in the photo, but I really dig the tattoos! Reminds me of sacred geometry.

[-] ickplant@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

It’s my friend (posted with permission), and that’s exactly what she was going for. Her tattoos are amazing!

That's a cool knit! Is the knit called drop stich? I have a few knitter's in my life that make me things from time to time and I'd love to request something with that pattern.

[-] ickplant@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

The pattern is free, so here it is. It's actually pretty easy to make, I hope your friends make you one!

Thanks a bunch!

Edit: yours looks even better than the sample picture on the pattern. You must be really good at this.

[-] ickplant@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Omg, thank you. That’s like the best compliment for a knitted, lol. You just made my day!

You should be. That’s a pretty cool scarf!

Rainbow road - the scarf. 😃 Great work!

Your scarf looks like a human being wearing a scarf

Did you intentionally pick the yarn to go with the purple thing your friend is wearing?

[-] ickplant@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Not at all - I actually didn't know for whom I was making the scarf at first. Then it called to me that it belonged to this friend. I went to meet her, and she was wearing the purple overalls. We both gasped at how well it fit with the scarf. It was one of those serendipitous moments!
