I accidentally bought acrylic yarn because it was pretty, I don’t usually like it but it’s knitting up quite nicely #knitting #showmeyourknits

I've finished my autumnal jumper and I love it! Please imagine it over a plain black dress rather than a patterned one (cba to get changed to try this on!)
I wanted this baggy, and while it's not as baggy as desired but it will become baggier as the weeks go by!

Finally finished my Sophie Scarf, just in time for the frosty-but-not-too-cold days of January (I miss proper winters!). I used Yarnsmiths sock yarn held together with deep stash Rowan kidsilk haze, and made it a lot longer. Love the way it turned out! #SophieScarf #petiteknit #yarnsmiths #knitsky
