Re: Calling all knitters!
Beautiful work! This brings back fond memories of knit caps my Mom made me just like thosewhen I was growing up. Despite my desire to learn, I have never been able to knit or crochet....me and yarn just don’t get alomg.
Re: Calling all knitters!

Thanks! Yours too! You have SO many socks! I have a drawer full but have sold/gifted most of mine. You are right they last forever when washed on gentle and air dried.
Your cat sweater is Great!! The expression!
I have joint hypermobility, and knitting on anything larger than size 2 woodens hurts. I finally just accepted this and put away all the bigger needles and gave way most of the worsted and bulky yarns.
I LOVE Knitpicks! Most of my sock yarn is from there (favorite is Felici self striping) but sometimes I try other stuff. I recognized a lot of yarn from your pics!

My doberman wears a (fleece) sweater during the winters and absolutely loves it. Dobes are babies in the winter and very much appreciate the insulation.
hahaha! Maybe fancy bags to transport them in or soft hides for them (my snakes love their Christmas stockings). There was a video of a scientist studying snake movement, and when he put a cloth sleeve on a snake it looked very confused and didn't move well. Snake breaks! New product idea ;-)

My Irish wolfhound loves to wear shirts!! My boxer on the other hand loves to eat shirts. My fiancée also once knitted me a beanie with a beard attached to it lol, wish I still had the picture.

You have a Irish Wolfhound ????
Oh my, one of my dream dogs !!!
They are usually SO easy going, so noble, so regal. And so very short lived... sigh.
One day I will get one, even if my heart will get broken much to soon.
I have a hard time finding a truly responsible breeder. I'm willing to pay, but I demand that a breeders absolute Nr. 1 priority is the well being of the dogs, meaning choosing carefully who to breed, health tests, temperament tests, raised indoors, etc etc. I won't support back yard breeding or breeding for profit when no true effort for well being is put into it.
So...I guess I'll never get one, because I'm so picky, and there aren't many breeders to begin with..

OMG! FollowTheSun, amazing work! I don't knit, but now I'm dying to learn! And you have joint hypermobility, too?? I have severe hEDS and can't work currently, and I'm sure I'd have to take lots of breaks knitting, but I need more things to occupy my time. What are the best resources to learn to knit, and do you have any other tips on knitting with hypermobility?
