Today we celebrate the birthday of Elizabeth Zimmermann, knitting icon and "Opinionated Knitter" (aren't we all?), who was born August 9, 1910. Her innovations include the Pi Shawl, Moebius twist, i-cord, and more. Read my favorite story about EZ and find EZ inspired patterns on my newsletter https://mailchi.mp/intheloopknitting/free-knitting-patterns-elizabeth-zimmermann #knitting #otd

🧶 Harvard Researchers Turn Ordinary Knitting Into Programmable Technology ｢ A piece of knitted fabric can now do more than stretch and fold. By carefully controlling its yarns and stitch patterns, researchers have made textiles that snap between stable shapes, operate electrical switches, and even track a person’s steps ｣ https://scitechdaily.com/harvard-researchers-turn-ordinary-knitting-into-programmable-technology/ #science #knitting #research #harvard

For the #FediCraftClub crowd: Cat and Dog Socks are grafted! I like how the pattern has appropriately different paw prints for each underside. And I'm entertained that the best light I can reach is by my dog's toes at the moment. #knitting #cat #dog

No way. Remember Hank Green making a weird video about knitting and every scientist who knits debunking the weird claims? Turns out he uses LLM (AI) to research his videos, yeah that will do it. Explains everything in my opinion. #knitting #crochet @knitting@a.gup.pe

I hate searching the web for e.g. "crochet magic circle" and getting thousands of ad-riddled influencer-esque blog articles that don't even get to the point until you're at the bottom of the page... The fiber arts scene is just as ridiculous as the recipe blog scene. I'm sorry if you feel that you have to monetize every little thing you do, but the market is flooded and your users/readers probably hate everything about your site. #crochet #fiberarts #knitting

For fiber artists, a list of signs that a set of instructions is probably llm-slop. The article is by a crochet designer, but the signs are relevant beyond crochet. #knitting #crochet #FiberArts no advice please https://www.moderndailyknitting.com/community/how-to-spot-ai-fake-pattern/

I never posted the finished gargoyle! I didn't make wings because they just curl up without wires/pipe cleaners for structure. #knitting

After speed running 3 easy wash cloths for a gift set.. I am now cranking out the set in different yarns. This time it'll Knit Picks Dishie Twill in colorway Coffee (a dark brown twisted with white to make for speckled brown effects) This one is a simple stockinette cloth with a garter border. I have learned that an i-cord loop after the bind off makes for the best hanging loop. #knitting #giftette #washcloth #handmade

After speed running 3 easy wash cloths by Elizabeth Carls for a gift set.. I am now cranking out the set in different yarns. This time it'll Knit Picks Dishie Twill in colorway Coffee (a dark brown twisted with white to make for speckled brown effects) This second one is a box stitch (k2p2 that switches every two rows, sort of a macro moss stitch) that I took 4 sts off to make the pattern more square with my tension. I-cord loop again. #knitting #giftette #washcloth #handmade

This time it'll Knit Picks Dishie Twill in colorway Coffee (a dark brown twisted with white to make for speckled brown effects) This third one is row-ribbed (purl the second row and then every third row after that). I-cord loop again. Now I use the leftover yarn making a row-ribbed cloth carrying scrubby for a scourer/exfoliator #knitting #giftette #washcloth #handmade

This time it'll Knit Picks Dishie Twill in colorway Coffee (a dark brown twisted with white to make for speckled brown effects) And that is the whole set complete. As you can see they roll up and fit inside the original wrapper which makes them perfect to be handed over or tossed like missile to retaliate for unexpected gifts. #knitting #giftette #washcloth #handmade

Oh look, yet another set of dishcloths. This time again in was Knit Picks Dishie Twist in colorway Espresso (a coffee brown twisted with white to make for speckled brown effects) again. As you can see they roll up and fit inside the original wrapper which makes them perfect to be handed over or tossed like missile to retaliate for unexpected gifts. This time I also tried to keep a yarn edge on the scrubber. #knitting #giftette #washcloth #handmade
