The start of my next project! I’m knitting a paneled skirt, using a petticoat pattern from Butterick’s 1892 The Art of Kitting (link below) as inspiration. I decided to use size 10 1/2 needles for the panels, and size 9 (I think) for the waistband strip, which will be stitched to an elastic waistband. I’m using a Lion Brand Yarns’ Pound of Love in Oxford Grey, weight 4

I’ll be typing up a proper pattern once it’s all done, and adding it to the final project post.

#fiberuary2021 day 20 Fiber Family This sweet little family is my brother's flock; Margo (far right) Todd (far left) and Baby Lamb (left middle). Both Todd and Margo have great, long wool, and I can't wait to process their wool and knit something!! #fiberuarychallenge #sheep #knittingpossum #smallranchadventures #homeflock #fiberuaryday20 #knitting #ranching https://www.instagram.com/p/CLhnuB_nRtN/?igshid=kxc72glicseb

#fiberuarychallenge days 18 and 19 Yarn and In My Project Bag A peek into my yarn drawer, full of potential projects! I don't actually have a project bag, more of a pile, but it's currently pretty small. I'm working on my slow-burn vest, patterning out a stuffed possum, and a couple different lace patterns! #fiberuary2021 #knittersofinstagram #knittingpossum #fiberuaryday18 #fiberuaryday19 #yarn #projects https://www.instagram.com/p/CLfJuFBnEd6/?igshid=l7zuka2zov1d

#fiberuarychallenge day 17 I Collect... Succulents! I guess. I'm not really one for collecting things, but I do love my little succulent family. #fiberuary2021 #knittersofinstagram #knittingpossum #plantmum #succulentgarden #fiberuaryday17 https://www.instagram.com/p/CLaI7_AH2tH/?igshid=h4pe5dtsu0zu

#fiberuary2021 day 16 Black and White (These are actually black and cream, but shh) My first cotton yarn for some nice socks for myself. My feet suffocate easily and I've had a hell of a time finding knee-high cotton socks, so naturally I decided to make some myself! #fiberuarychallenge #knittersofinstagram #makeyourownclothes #knittingpossum #fiberuaryday16 https://www.instagram.com/p/CLXlyxLH3_j/?igshid=zn9ywm1hnws5

#fiberuary2021 day 15 Mug (shot) This here is my trusty divorce mug. I found it at Goodwill for, I dunno, a dollar or something, and it's very obviously part of a matching set, but its partner was nowhere to be found, presumably it came to Goodwill on its own, hence its nickname: the divorce mug. She can fit stupid amounts of coffee and tea, and is never far from me when I'm at home. #fiberuarychallenge #fiberuaryday15 #knittersofinstagram #knittingpossum https://www.instagram.com/p/CLU84oWnnyd/?igshid=m0vkeyqu2xo6

#fiberuary2021 day 14 Love 💚💚💚 I poured lots of love into this baby blanket for my niece. My sister picked the colors, and I had lots of fun learning how to do this chevron pattern. My little niece will be so loved, and I hope she feels it every time she's wrapped up in this lovely piece! #fiberuarychallenge #fiberuaryday14 #knittingpossum #giftproject #knittersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CLSHpuEn4Zq/?igshid=1eydrus2payt
