My second Cashmerette Tobin sweater, this time in a black and grey melange sweater knit. The right of this fabric has a texture that’s sort of like terry, but with a lower pile and it’s super soft. Went with View B for this one, which has the cowl neck and I love it. Same base as my other version- size 18 C/D, bust darts lowered slightly, hip length. #tobinsweater #isew #cashmerettepatterns

This is one of two Cashmerette Tobin sweaters I’ve finished since the New Year. I’ve had two low-stretch, true medium weight sweater knits in my stash for years waiting for the right pattern (specifically something with set-in rather than raglan sleeves and no need for coordinating ribbing). The Tobin pattern was perfect for both pieces of fabric! This is View C, which has a faced crew neck. I skipped the contrast fabric yoke, and sewed the shorter length with no sleeve cuffs. I made the 18 C/D and the only change I needed was lowering the bust darts by ~3/4”. A new TNT pattern for sure. 🙌 #sewing #handmadeclothing #tobinsweater #cashmerettepatterns

Progress. Can’t stop. 😄 #embroidery #hooklinetinker

Starting a new craft using this awesome embroidery kit I received as a Christmas gift from @sheltieloverx7 🧵 The stitch instructions open with a quote about perfection that is 👌. #embroidery #hooklinetinker

New pair of socks in my favorite color palette. I’m not 100% sure what the yarn is but I *think* it’s Lana Grossa Meilenweit in one of the Chalet colorways. 🤷‍♀️ #knittersofinstagram #handknitsocks

I’m dying over these pictures of Jude in the dinosaur Converse he got from @kmilner115 for Christmas. SO CUTE. 🦕🦖 #bestauntever
