Goid morning!! It's cold enough today to wear my Valentine's hat πŸ’•πŸ’œ! This was the first stranded colorwork I did that turned out, the others were too tight. It's a pattern (I modified a little) by Vanessa Ewing, I don't remember exactly what the name is Storyteller something I think πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ. #knit #knitstr #yarn #valentines #fiberarts

Very nice variegated pallette

Thank you, it was a hand dyed skein called walk in the wildflowers. It has alllllll the colors in it β€οΈπŸ©·πŸ§‘πŸ’›πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ©΅πŸ’œπŸ€ŽπŸ–€πŸ©Ά

I like that the design seems like a cutout showing the colors... like those old churches with holes in the masonry to show stained glass.

That's what I was going for...πŸ‘€... Nah, it was a happy accident caused by not having enough of the variegated yarn to do the pattern as written, it was supposed to kind of fade into the second color at the bottom but I used the cream and I like it way better 😁.

Good morning Maria, how are the chickies?

They look great, hopefully they survive and make eggs.

That’s gorgeous!! You’re very talented πŸ’œ

☺️ Thank you πŸ’œπŸ’œ. I love this pattern and wish I had girlfriends I could make it for...but there are only dudes 😫.

Have you thought about teaching crochet/knitting?

If I lived in Texas I’d drive half way across the state to attend πŸ’œ

You're so kind πŸ₯°. I'm pretty sure it was my student (the husband) but I was not a great teacher πŸ˜’. I have had a few people suggest trying to do some hive talk lessons, if I can get my confidence up maybe I can try that.

You do realize halfway across Texas is a hike?

Yep!

I’m from South Australia so I understand distance! πŸ’œπŸ§‘

πŸ˜‚ he's IRL people fucking with me

Oh! I wasn’t sure if he was thinking I didn’t realise how big Texas was!

I know! And I meant it πŸ’œ

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ he's jealous.

Nice m8, I'm in ADL

The part with snakes doesn't count.

Well then the only part of SA that I can maybe vouch for as having no snakes is my house but in saying that it’s on stumps so there maybe some underneath it πŸ‘€πŸ˜‚

Some people would hike halfway across Texas to see me πŸ˜†.

Just like I'd drive an hour to see you πŸ˜˜πŸ˜†.
