Welcome!

My name is Pidge! I've been knitting since the winter of 2024, picking up the hobby shortly after putting down a long time family pet. I make a little of everything as I enjoy knitting itself more than the end product. Most of my knits are either gifts or are donated to local charities as I don't have the space to keep most things for myself. Here are some random facts about me!

I don't have a gender, so any pronouns are fine, although they/them is preferred :)
My favorite color is pink!
I'm HoH and use hearing aids
When I'm not knitting I'm playing videogames!
I'm also on bluesky under the username thealphapigeon

My inbox is always open, and my main blog is @thealphapigeon , so that's the blog all my likes come from. If you've made it this far, have a cookie 🍪 and a nice day! My icon was drawn by @sybeez

Often things don't turn out quite right on the first try, especially when you're figuring out a pattern yourself! It's scary to pull back work but it's worth it to have a result I'll actually use!! 🍊🌞

Here's the original catalogue post for the bag!

All the mittens I've knitted this winter (and all of them I've made so far). The gold pair was my first crack at following a pattern and the black and green were my first colourwork

It’s my first time doing colourwork and I’m loving life!! Not sure how well the floats are going as it’s a bit too small to try on yet, but I’m praying it’s okay

I’m making the Shrimply the Best socks and I can’t wait to see how they turn out

I finished a thing! A Saturday hat done in mosaic knitting. Quick, easy and fun!

More (very small) progres!!!

I did 6 rows. 😅

From the purple lifeline outward is what i did. The first photo is what each "section* of this chart is that I'm doing (4 rows and then just doing it over and over as I increase.)

Each "repeat" is so small 😭. I feel like I'm doing so much and then I realize it's like half an inch of progress 🫣.

WIP Wednesday

Caught my partner's cold so doing some test swatches trying to work out this leaf edging.

I have a few variations I'm planning on going through to work out (like do I want lace leaf edging on a waistband? Is all this weird gartery bits necessary? So on...)

While I'm taking a little break from my leaf shawl I'm trying my hand at making a caplet as a stash buster

The scarf is coming to life slowly and I gotta say I love the half brioche stitch it's using, I find it really easy and fun
