Don’t knit fast, knit big

This time of year, you often hear folks say they have to knit fast. Winter is coming, so knit faster. Holiday gifts or Rhinebeck sweater, all require speed. I say don’t knit fast, knit big!

Damn that making yourself crazy trying to knit at the speed of light. Have you ever heard of instant gratification? I know you have and I know you understand.

I have recently fallen in love with fingering weight yarn, because Plucky Primo!

Fat Fibers Rock

If you have been around me longer than five minutes, you know that I love fatfibers first and foremost. You know that I refer to myself as the CEO of #teamlazy. There is also something sexy about a big ole stitch.

You guys remember that I met Jacqui Fink a few years ago at Vogue Knitting Live right? Read that post here. She was kind enough to gift me some yarn, way back then. I had to make something that was worthy of this yarn.

The bag you see below is what I call worthy! Can I tell you it took me about 90 minutes to complete. #teamfatfiber I finger crocheted this beauty, The handles were done with needles.  I am waiting to secure the ends because I want to get it lined.

I made another one, using a big bump from The Bagsmith. Did you know they are now closed 😐 Anyway my point is you can get a lot done in the time frame you desire, just knit big, 

Knit on my fiber friends..knit on
