DC area checking in. They are super popular right now, especially roasted or deep fried. Fortunately, I haven't seen anyone serving the boiled nasties my mom used to make...

Hey, it's the only thing I remember from linear algebra! That's the longest living sheep ever.

That looks fabulous! I really like the big stitched and the drape. You are all set for winter. :)

 

I didn't learn about this until today.

Did you manage to finish? Looks like it is going to be a beautiful sweater.

I love the bunny kicks. They are so dangerous, but so adorable...

Taffy is very cute! Is that belly a trap, or can you pet it?

Portuguese style looks really interesting! I learned to knit after learning to crochet, so I've only ever gotten the hang of continental.

 

I made a neat shape yesterday called a humybug. I'd never done one before. Followed the tutorial here: https://plushcat.blogspot.com/p/humbug-tutorial.html. You start with a rectangle and sew it into a little tetra shape. It's cute. I think it would make a good cat toy. :)

first you make a rectangle

and then you sew it into a little pyramid ahape

 

It's summer in the southern hemisphere. Perfect time to knit a pair of wool socks!! This is a toe up, 3x1 rib sock with fish lips short row heel. Probably too bulky to go in shoes, but I can wear them around the house when it's cooler out.

Yarn is Naturally Gallipoli from the craft store. It feels a lot nicer than I expected.
