My mom and I went to Ikea for the first time the other day (that was An Experience™), and I bought myself a knitted blanket in my favorite color for 25 dollars. And she got mad at me, saying “You could have made that!”

And she’s right. It’s a very simple garter stitch blanket. And I’m all for slow, self-reliant art. I could have made it - if I went out and bought the right sized circular needles, and then 40-50 dollars worth of yarn on the cheap end, and maybe not found the exact color I wanted to keep it in budget, and then spent weeks and weeks working on it (because I’m a lazy bum, you see).

I definitely could have done all that. But sometimes you just want a blanket, you know?

Man I have, off the top of my head, NINE unfinished knit blanket projects. Nine. That shit takes an unholy amount of time, and even the cheap yarn is way too expensive. Blankets are basically a more boring version of the sweater curse.

Like… you either: do a really boring stitch and it takes forever because it’s BORING; do one very long horizontal row that takes forever because it TAKES A LONG TIME to go through 150-200 stitches; do several columns that take a long time because they have to then be meticulously sewn up (I hate sewing knitwork. I just hate it.); or you do an interesting pattern or set of blocks that take a long time because they’re complicated.

Or I could just buy a blanket and spend my time on…literally any other project that I would not find boring.

The Knitter’s Curse is feeling bad about buying literally any knit item

[tjwock]

TRUTH.

[iknituknot]

I knit and crochet, but I crochet much faster than I knit. I’m more than willing to spend time crocheting myself a blanket. But taking 4893243289 years to knit one? Nah fam you can keep that and watch me give Ikea my hard earned cash

What you think WIP stands for: Work In Progress.

What it actually stands for: Won’t It Please finish itself.

if there are any other first-time intarsia knitters out there, I just found out about this method when adding in a new color so there aren’t any holes and it’s honestly a godsend

[greenhedgie]

OMG! i remember seeing this the first time i looked up how to do intarsia but i couldn’t understand it. But now i do! Amazing! Thank you!

[skeinandbones]

I’m dying bc I literally saw the tutorial a few days ago and couldn’t wrap my head around it, but when I re-started a sleeve today it made sense?? I hope you make something cool with it!

Turkish cast-on is a great method for creating seamless, even toe-up socks. It’s also useful for making hoods, purses, toys, mittens, and gloves without seams or gaps. With this step-by-step tutorial, you’ll be on your way to making smooth, beautiful pieces in no time!

Levels of Yarn Hatred:

Level 1: 

Who even came up with this? WHY??? 

Level 2: 

Ask yourself: is it really worth it? 

Level 3: 

Where. Is. The. Stitch!?!??!!

The beauty of the knitted-on border is that it is not only very decorative, but also very elastic: you won’t have a problem with a tight-ish cast-of, because there is in fact no cast-of!
