    Your Antler is beautiful and looks great on you! That ripping back bit would have left me with a wip for a year, at least! Very good food for thought about realistic knitting. I only wear my own knits anymore and it is so satisfying (meaning that I don’t purchase knits from a store).

    I’m really both a process and project knitter. I almost always cast on with some sort of purpose in mind — if it’s not a project for me, it’s a project specifically for someone else.

    That said, I love the process of knitting as well!

    I’m also quietly trying to make a knit wardrobe that will work with what I already own. It’s harder then I thought it would be!

    Your knits are so beautiful I can’t decide which one to choose! Thanks for sharing.

    Perfect blog for me! Exactly how I feel about knitting. About to take a stab at my first ever sweater fully expecting it to be a wardrobe staple😍

    I am so a process knitter! I’m sad when the project comes off the needles. Sometimes, it will remain unfinished (ends, seams and buttons needing to be sewn) for a couple of weeks and I am well into another project before I can finish it.

    I am mostly a product crafter (mostly crochet) but I love the process otherwise I wouldn’t do it. I don’t think you need to choose between the 2 :)

    Ah, the elusive Alexa has shared photos of her in knitwear! I recently discovered how pathetic my own wardrobe is when I couldn’t find my favorite tank top because my laundry basket was a sea of black shirts. The most colorful item of clothing I currently own is one brick-red tunic top. That said, I guess it’s time to cast on a few Me sweaters.

    I am, depending on project, both a process and product knitter, though I love the quick hit of finished product a hat or fingerless gloves give me. I, too, am starting to really think about what I can knit that will truly be for me.

    I have been knitting since I wad going 10 years old. I am really good at it now. Take it everywhere I go. Also it blesses my income. And I always have a gift to give anybody. It’s a blessing from God to me.

    I’m finishing an Antler for my great niece and I love it. Now I have to finish the Gramps for her brother and block a Stiorr for her sister and then I can make an Antler for me. I like the blog posts with how to modify and better way of doing different techniques – great jobs guys!

    You look adorable in plaid and the Antler. I am totally inspired to knit one for my own. Thank you so much. :)

    Thanks for sharing! I’ve become a recent fan of TCK, as I’ve only been knitting seriously for less than a year. I’ve done most of the simple line & learned lots of stitches & techniques. I love that you adapted the sweater to fit you. I want to try a sweater for myself – but like you said something that I can enjoy on a regular basis! Thanks again, your work is amazing!
