#scrapalong2025

[yllene]

I believe I am onto something interesting with this. I am actually quite excited.

This is not stranded knitting, but slip stitches. In my opinion it is easier to knit with many colours using slip stitches rather that stranded knitting, because I get to knit with only one yarn at a time. And slip stitches create such interesting textures.

This is going to be my contribution to scrapalong 2025, even if it is not strictly scrappy, only partly scrappy. It is going to be socks.

I just finished this little gift for my daughter: a capybara!

Incidentally made of what i suspect to be Drops Paris scraps?

It's astonishingly well balanced and stands securely on its little bobble stitch feetsies ^_^

It's so shaped! xD

Hook: 3 mm

Pattern: baby capybara by Natalia Sapunova on ravelry

Started: Feb 12, 2025 Finished: Feb 14, 2025

Musselburgh Hat

Playing around with both ends of my scrappy Musselburgh hat before I shorten it to a wearable length. Pulled all the way down, I appear to have been detained by the Stockinette Chapter of The Knitting Craftivists (interesting image). I almost like the massively wide brim but it hides the Trans Pride stripes, and I want to be a visible ally. The bag cap has a kind of Renaissance or liberty cap look, but it's not exactly a 21st century look. Onward!

Doing a scrap socks, but this time a bit differently: I'm splicing the different yarns together, in sequence, to create two balls of (hopefully) identical self-striping yarn. It's just barely 80 gram, but that's enough for toe-up socks.

That's a lot of splicing, and in order to make it portable, I impaled all my little balls of yarn on an interchangeable needle, like some kind of weird yarn kebab.

Halfway through my big ball of self-striping sock yarn!

knitting this scrap yarn lap blanket while i heal from a breakup with the person i thought i’d marry 💔

practicing different stitches while i go — not worrying about making anything perfect!

Yesterday's progress on my scrappy yarn cozies! For the first one I just picked colors without much thought, on the second one I'm trying helical knitting so I don't have all the ends to weave in.

Some shots of the Eternal WIP (the second) and some length matching of all the 4-ply bits. To summarise the picture below, from left to right we have leftovers from projects such as: the Big Knit hats, socks, the Penrose blanket (half of the ends that have been eliminated so far) and the recent hyperfixation: card weaving.

Here’s hoping I will add these all into the rug before the end of ScrapAlong2025

I'm reeeally late for #scrapalong2025 but I just finished crocheting a scrappy rug for my guest bathroom 🥳 the color is a bit off in the pictures, the middle part is more of a pinky-red
