🍃🌞My Clematis Sweater🌞🍃

Just chuck me in a forest so I can be one with the trees…

Being a part of this test knit was so fun, I mean just look at the texture! From the beginning I knew I wanted to go with earthy green hues to evoke Mother Nature/ethereal vibes and I’m pleased to say those vibes were achieved (in my head anyway 😅).

Everyone look out for the pattern coming very soon. This pattern is so customisable, so whether you want a bolero, an oversized fit, a tight or loose cuff, it’s all achievable.

Ella did her big one with this pattern 🤏🏾🤏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

👋🏾 Hi, I'm Taylah and this is how you’ll often find me: comfortable in knitwear and braids. Here are 3 things you need to know about Braided & Knitted:

🧶 My projects are almost always chaotic and accompanied with mini breakdowns.
🧶 I made B&K as a way not to subject my poor family and friends to my beloved makes on my personal page
🧶 I'm a self-branded Jack of all trades who hopes to one day be a master of...some? (At least one will be nice)

So if any of that interests you, feel free to stick around and if it not, no drama llama 🦙

Let the holiday begin 😍🇯🇲 socks truly are the perfect holiday sock, I’ve never really been able to knit anything else on holiday or the plane.

Plane knitting, yay or nay?

Also, Ignore my awful short rows, I really should’ve started over, but I didn’t 🤷🏾‍♀️

Took my #romanescobag on its first outing on Saturday! We had fun strolling the streets of London and visiting Southwark Cathedral to crochet squares for the big cathedral knit held by @craft_forward.

Thank goodness I unravelled that hideous balaclava to create something I’ll actually use! I urge you all to do the same with anything unused that you’ve made. Had so much fun knitting it (apart from that one hour of stress when my count was off!) Larger version and more colours pending 😍

Met so many lovely people on Saturday including Jennifer who took these pics ☺️😉💃🏾

WIP WEDNESDAY! Currently sitting in bed post a last-minute op (don’t worry y’all I’m fine) so why not show my current WIPs? Some are days old and some are months old, but what are you gonna do? 🤷🏾‍♀️ #wipwednesday

Started this summer dress on Saturday, just a couple more layers and straps to go!

Looking forward to this bag being finished. I repurposed yarn from an old project and I already know I will get so much more use from this piece. Last handle and lining to go.

Should be a vest? I dunno, I just used it to nervous knit on during the World Cup Semi Final 😅
