Hello world! I am very bad at taking photos of my knitting, but I’m rarely seen without it! This is one of my many wips, and will one day grow up to be a monster blanket!!

Wow, that is amazing! Are you doing it on four cables? I love the texture stitches.

Thanks! I’m using a long cable - and then transferring the completed, but not cast off, square onto “scoobies” (this is a GREAT tip I picked up from someone on instagram - scoobies are those long plastic tubes that were a bit of a fad a few years ago for kids crafting. They are cheap, and hollow, so you can transfer stitches on and off by jamming the tip of the needle into the scoobie, and carefully sliding them across the join)
