The back of a woman wearing a vest with traditional fair isle motifs in orange and cream through to grey and dark brown.
The front of the vest, a v-neck.
From my profile pic! Another hand spun piece, www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... The 🧶 was spun from different breeds and colours of roving from Dover Farms NS I got at a yarn festival. My spinning wasn't very consistent but you can't tell once it's knit up! #showmeyourknits #colourwork
A woman wearing an oversized colourwork pullover, background is blue and grey, motifs are light grey with a bit of yellow.
This was a labour of love (made 8 years ago!) I spun all the yarn 🧶 and although my gauge was way bigger than the original pattern www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... it turned out perfectly. Great cold weather sweater! #showmeyourknits #knitsky #colourwork #strandedknitting
A woman wearing a fair isle cardigan in grey, yellow, red, white, and blue with blue cuffs and bands.
The original version of the cardigan with light grey bands which are narrower and wavy on the bottom.
I knit this 8 years ago from www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... and recently reknit the bands and cuffs (1st pic) because I wasn't wearing the original version very much. I'm much happier with the blue wider band and the non-wavy bottom trim. #showmeyourknits 🧶 #knitsky #colourwork #standedknitting
A woman wearing a light grey cardigan with red, blue, and navy colourwork in diamond shapes and zigzags.
Shoulder detail of the cardigan, showing a set-in sleeve worked topdown.
Showing how the op of the sweater is worked, flat at first.
I knit this old Arne and Carlos pattern 4 years ago in 3 different brands of stash 🧶 using the Cococknits topdown method. Once I finished the neck, I joined in the round and added steeks (the original was knit flat). #knitsky #colourwork #knitting #showmeyourknits
Cotton t-shirt with yacht on front knitted in intarsia. White sails, blue boat. T-shirt is yellow with red borders.
#showmeyourknits for this weeks #colourwork theme I have just finished this intarsia cotton t-shirt as a birthday gift for a 4 year old boy. Free pattern by Lets Knit Together.
Small black cockapoo stands outside in the sunshine wearing a green knit sweater. His mouth is open just enough to see his bottom teefers and his tail is mid-wag.
Green knit dog sweater with yellow-green colorwork collar inspired by Kermit the Frog
I missed the green theme for #showmeyourknits so here’s my transitional offering of green #colourwork - the Kermit sweater.
Thanks @septhermitknits.bsky.social for directing me to this pattern - Edinburgh Seamless Dog Sweater.
TiaTeva by Carol Sunday which I started 5 years ago in a cotton/wool blend. Must get this one done. Light grey background with navy fair isle colourwork inserts using short rows and striped body.
An Ceàrdach by Kate Davies. I changed this to a topdown fingering weight sweater, in light grey background alternating the colourwork rectangular motifs in dark grey and rust coloured.
Outcrop by Rachel Illsley. I am knitting this with Kat's Riverside Studio yarn in Hunter (dark green) and Trail (beige speckled yarn). Another topdown fingering weight pattern.
Fleur by Marie Wallin. Love the bright spring-like colours of Mondim. Cream background with gold, orange, light blue, mid-blue, and green colourwork diamond motifs.
This week's #showmeyourknits is colourwork. My absolute favourite kind of knitting. These are a just a few of my WIPs, many more lurking about because I can't stop casting on for new projects. Pattern names in the alt description. 🧶 #knitsky #knitting #colourwork #strandedknitting
Eight balls of yarn, four in blue, two in cream, one in rusty orange and one in fawn.
The completed jumper, modelled by MrLnS. The main body and sleeves are blue and the yolk is in a colourful pattern design echoed around the welt and cuffs.
MrLnS gave me some very posh circular knitting needles for Christmas. Seemed only fair that the first item off them was a jumper for him. Here we are #SundayPixBefore&After #Knitting first attempt at #Colourwork
Sweater in burnt umber and teal (even though you can't tell!) made with three ply Järbo Svensk Ull.
A still unblocked yoke sweater, a Novita design called Lärka. Knitted in 2 shades of Drops Nepal and a grey Patons yarn, held with various Rowan kidsilk haze.
#showmeyourknits this week is #colourwork. These are two of my more recent examples. My phone can't do the colours justice, though, so I've added a pic from the maker's website to show the blue...that's actually teal!

Colourwork knitted jumper, Hand knitted, Indie Dyed Yarn, Work in progress
Halfway through this pattern, Dark Academia, using Skeinhawk Yarns hand dyed wool! Loving knitting this so far. Even when I had to unpick 5000 stitches. #knitting #wool #goth #indiedyedyarn #colourwork #woolcraft
A swatch consisting of teal yarn base that is broken by bright (think almost Fluro) pink and yellow yarn. Where the colour changes you get a stylised cat head.
FOYAL has started. I finished my swatch and am onto the jumper. I’m making the Simple Sinister Sweater for my little human.
The colour work here is done back to front (main colour to contrast) so the cats will be sharper in the finished one.

I usually only do #colourwork #stranded knits using 2 colours so thought I would ramp it up a bit and throw in a 3rd 🫣 #weeklyknit
Close-up of a section of a knitted jumper, in purple acrylic. It has 2x2 ribbing at the bottom, and a bold colourwork pattern in bright pink. There are long fleur de lys and dots at the bottom, and above them are some huge pink roses.
Current WIP is the Floral Fallal by Vanessa Ewing. I don't love bottom-up, but it's worth it for these gorgeous roses

Finished UkeeKnits Toqueflake pattern made with @sweetpaprikadesigns.com yarn (and how-to videos!). My first stranded colourwork project - so delighted 🍄🧙♀️ #knitsky #knitting #yarncraft #colourwork
A grey plastic washing up bowl with some berry coloured water in it along with two colourwork handknit mittens in purple and white yarn. The mittens are soaking to try to remove excess dye.
Two colourwork handknit mittens in what was white and purple yarn. The white is now a pale pink. They're laid out on a bright green towel.
These are the mittens currently soaking. I put them in about an hour ago and that's the colour of the water after two prior washes. It's hard to see due to the green towel and awful lighting, but the white yarn is now all pale pink. 🧶

I finally finished my West of the Moon mittens. Now I can only pray I can remove the purple dye that ran. I washed them twice in cool water and it looked like a glass of Ribena. 😓 Hopefully an overnight soak will draw out most of the remaining excess dye. 🧶

Newly knitted jumper lying on a wooden floor. The jumper is oatmeal coloured with a patterned yoke and cuffs - made up of a repeating motif of dark green leaves.
I made a thing! #colourwork #knitting
Hand-knitted scarf made up of seven blocks. Four blocks have a green background with white leaf-like shapes, while three blocks have a white background with green leaf-like shapes.

An in progress photo of a color work sweater that is missing the sleeves hung against a wall. It features a light purple neckline. The color work looks like undulating curves going into a darker purple. It also features green dots at the lower bodice underneath the curves.
A screenshot of the yarn I used. As follows: the green is cascade 220 sport in primavera. The light purple is quince and co chickadee in the color mystic violet. The darker purple is cascade 220 sport in the color Bordeaux.
My Rhinebeck sweater wip - this is the Ooey Gooey sweater by Andrea Mowry. It may it may or may not be based on the pokemon, Goomy 😅 🧶 #showmeyourknits #colorwork #colourwork #pokemon #goomy

A patchwork shawl knit end to end, with different colourwork patterns in combinations of blue, green, white, and gold.
A close up of the shawl.
Really enjoyed knitting this patchwork shawl, great for leftovers 🧶 www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... #showmeyourknits #knitting #knitsky #colorwork #colourwork #strandedknitting It uses both stranded knitting and intarsia (which I usually hate, but will make exceptions for must-have patterns).
