Remember when giveaways were the way to grow on In

Remember when giveaways were the way to grow on Instagram?
.
Do you like that giveaways have been replaced by reels or do you wish we could go back to giveaways?
.
Me personally I would rather create a reel than run a giveaway.
.
Pattern: Sneak peak of me knitting a new pattern that I’m hoping to have ready for test knitting soon!

Blocking is magic 🪄 ✨ Don’t you agree?
.
I recently had someone reach out and ask how their colorwork can look better. My first answer was practice as the more you knit colorwork the better your tension will be. My second was blocking!
.
What’s your number one tip for better looking colorwork?

🎉PATTERN RELEASE!!! 🎉My Lumia Slippers are here!!!
.
✨After a 2 year timeout these slippers are ready to see the world. I put this design down before finishing the second toe because for some reason the toe chart and sizing was a challenge to wrap my brain around. Two years later and my design skills and math ability grew so much that it was an easy finish.

Now they are ready just in time for Holiday gift giving and cooler temperatures! Enjoy a 15% discount on this pattern all weekend long on Ravelry and Etsy! (No code needed)

I will be sharing my test knitters projects for color inspiration this weekend as well.

Creating art is an interesting process. 🎨Someda

Creating art is an interesting process. 🎨Somedays I’m so excited about what I’m working on and other days I question whether I should even keep going.
.
Can anyone else relate?
.
Sometimes the design I think no one will like blows up and other times the one I like the most gets no love.
.
I’ve started to just keep going once I start a design and see it through to the end as I never really know how it will be received.
.
My Jubilation Cowl that I designed for @knit_picks was a design I loved from start to finish. From the colors to the stitch pattern and the super soft yarn. I was excited to share this one with you and to be able to finally wear it and not keep it a secret!

What’s your heritage? Let me know in the commen

What’s your heritage? Let me know in the comments! I’m so curious to see where people come from!✨ My ancestors are from Norway, Finland, Sweden, and Scotland. 💗
.
I love learning about all of my ancestry and the culture. It influences my designs and the aesthetic that I’m drawn to.
.
Do you find yourself drawn to a certain look because of where you came from?
.
This Little Book of Scandi is so cute and inspiring to me. I’m just over here in Wisconsin trying to live like a Scandinavian (minus the lutefisk!)

My Lumia Slippers pattern comes out this Friday! If you want to get your hands on a coupon code don’t forget to hop on my newsletter. (Link in bio)

Matching my sweater to my socks... don't mind if I

Matching my sweater to my socks... don't mind if I do. 💕✨
.
Sadly this sweater doesn't fit over my baby bump at the moment so I happily wear my socks instead.

Only 6 weeks left until baby #4 arrives so I'm feeling the crunch to get all the patterns out to you before she gets here.

What are you looking to knit this fall? I'm debating on whether I should push out my mitten pattern, another hat pattern for the whole family, or work on a sweater. What would you choose?

Patterns: Mila Sweater + Mila Socks (currently in testing)
Yarn: @knit_picks Palette
