seasonal knit picks.

Knitting and I are totally pals. Once fall rolls around, the needles get whipped out and we have some gal pal time. Why are we best friends?

1. Less time on the internet.
2. Minnesota winter.
3. Yarn stores.
4. Knitting challenges! 
5. It adds to my ever-growing geriatric tendencies. Which I absolutely love and hone and am proud of.

So, just in time for never-remove-your-infinity-scarf season, a list of perfect-for-gift-giving knitting tutorials I'm-way-into. UNNECCESSARY HYPHENATION.

knit 1 la: infinity scarf

• You guys. It's so big. 

spud and chloe: chinese lantern hat

• Worked flat. Great. Thnx, Spud and Chloe.

the purl bee: tube sock legwarmers

spud and chloe: dogwood set

• I actually never want to knit anything but these mittens. 

jennifer adams: graham beanie

yellow dog knitting: thrummed mittens

• Currently making. They're going to be the warmest things of my life.

ohmygoodknits!: colorwork recipe

• This is very scary for me. Colorwork is scary. Let's learn together?

dull roar: mandelbrot hat

• I don't know why it's called mandelbrot hat. But I like mandelbrot...a lot...so I like this hat...a lot.

lion brand: vertical stripe tie

• I like a boy in a knitted tie. 

the purl bee: brioche cowl

• Can I have this?  I would like this right now.

the purl bee: men's mini herringbone cowl

• Nice. Real nice.

So there you have it. Things I've been perusing. Now I just have to practice having enough patience to finish a project that takes longer than a couple hours. It's a problem when you stop after only making one mitten. I have two hands.
