Can you knit the Good Things Shawl with only Fingering weight? That’s a question I’ve been getting a lot, and the answer is a resounding yes!
So this is the perfect time to show you the beautiful samples that @frida_fuchs_yarns and @yarnoverberlin made featuring the three original Advent color kits.
The first two photos show the neon version, knit only with Fingering weight yarn.
You can find tips on yarn and colors at the beginning of the pattern.
And btw, the original neon color set is available for a limited pre-order in the Frida Fuchs store right now!

Throwback to last spring, when I was not the only one completely mesmerized by the yarn I had just received from @frida_fuchs_yarns for the Good Things Shawl.
Frau Huber was, as always, a great help with the design process. 😻
The second photo shows my current progress on my #SosuGoodThingsShawl KAL project. I completed Day Three and love how slowly the color concept starts to appear (and my baskets of leftovers get emptier).

A glimpse at Day Two of the #SosuGoodThingsShawl KAL.
The fluffy Lace weight yarn, a Suri alpaca and silk blend, has entered the picture. I’m knitting a scrappy version and using the fluffy yarn as a neutral counterbalance and to being all the colors together.
If you want to join in, get the Good Things Shawl pattern from Ravelry or Payhip, and share your progress in my Ravelry Group or here on Instagram with the pattern hashtag.
As each daily section is short, you can easily catch up or join any time and knit at your own pace.
#SOSUknits #knitting #BriocheStitch
Day 1 of the #SosuGoodThingsShawl KAL starts with four little Brioche triangles.
I’ve looked through my stash and the mountains of leftovers, and then played around coloring in the schematic drawing. I’ll knit a shawl with only one fluffy Lace-weight color throughout and lots of leftovers bits in the yellow/pink/orange color scheme.
As each section of the Good Things Shawl is designed to need no more than a 20 g mini skein, and there are four segments per section, I don’t need more than 5 g of each bit of leftover yarn.
Let’s see if this turns out the way I imagine.
#SOSUknits #knitting #BriocheStitch
It’s cast-on day for the Good Things Shawl knit-a-long!
Join in and knit 1 section per day (that’s no more than 20 g of yarn) and you will have a stunning shawl on July 24.

Oh, one more thing: Because you all loved the neon colors of my original Advent version so much, @frida_fuchs_yarns is bringing the set back one last time, in a limited pre-order. Check out their website for more info (no ad, just info).

Throwback to my recent trip to Brno, teaching a Brioche class at @vlnenesestry and meeting so many amazing knitters for World Wide Knit In Public Day. 🎉🧶🩷
Vlnene Sestry, a lovely yarn shop in Brno, hosted a KAL with my designs this spring, and invited my to teach a Brioche class as a grand finale. I‘m still not over how many stunning SOSU projects knitters showed up with! 🥰
What an amazing experience!
Thank you so much for this beautiful weekend in Brno, knitters! 🩷

The Good Things shawl in a completely new light.
The original version is knit with 12 colors, both in Fingering and fluffy Lace yarn, in a gradient or color fade using mini skeins.
This new version is knit with 3 full skeins of both bases. I dipped deep into my stash for this one, so the Fingering and fluffy Lace yarns are not the same colors.
The higher contrast gives the shawl a completely different look and lets it shine in a new light.

WIP nearing the finish line. P-Rex designed by sosuknits and knit in two different yarns by artyarns. Doing an i-cord bind off on the hem, then onto the short-ish sleeves, and then done! As usual, I can’t knit or take a photo without dachshund interference.

Jarní KAL s vlnenesestry . Byla to super výzva, která mě potrápila, vyzkoušela v trpělivosti a nakonec nadchla.

I fell in love with this design last year and am thrilled to mark it off my warm-weather knit list! I used a new-to-me yarn, Berroco Remix Light from knit_picks. I really enjoyed the yarn and am glad to have another warm-weather appropriate yarn in my arsenal plus it’s made from recycled/repurposed yarn, so it also feels like an environmentally helpful choice!
I started this one first, but it’s my third summer tee to be completed for #summerteemal25 juliannamknits !
Pattern: Everyday Attitude
Designer: sosuknits
Yarn: berrocoyarn Remix Light from knit_picks

Wieder zurück aus dem Urlaub durfte ich gleich meine schöne Yarnpride Projekttasche von queermaschen auspacken. In die hübsche Poly Esther habe ich mich vom Fleck weg verliebt. Gefüllt war die Tasche mit unendlich vielen Goodies und Gutscheinen für Anleitungen. So wird das Täschlein immer gut gefüllt sein, da ich jetzt ja noch ganz viele neue Anleitungen stricken darf.
Die Strickerwelt ist bunt!

Letošní KAL fotím se zpožděním, ale v mém případě jsem ráda, že už je hotový. Návod je skvělý, nosí se úžasně, ale zvolená kombinace přízí ITO Gima a Washi v obrace byla na mě tuhá a lehce nekonečná. Jak to ale bývá, už teď vím, že to bude oblíbený kousek v mém letním šatníku.
