Knitting Terms

So if you’re looking for what ktog means, you can likely find a ton of websites to tell you! While some of those terms may seep into this page anyways later on, the idea was to focus on terms you’re not going to find in your standard intro-to-knitting dictionary.

Airplane Project

A project suitable for airplane travel, small enough to fit in your carry-on and last the duration of your flight.

Note: You should check with the authorities to determine what, if any, needles are allowed. Flying within the states seems to not be an issue but international flights may pose more of a problem.

Bus Project
A project suitable for bus travel, compact and manageable during your trip.
Knitting in Public
Engaging in knitting activities in public spaces, often as part of social events with fellow crafters.
Yarn Chicken
The suspenseful game of determining if you have enough yarn to complete your project before running out.

For today’s #lunchbreak


 For today's #lunchbreak I made a special delivery. My best friend works nights as a dispatcher working crazy hours right now. But she now has gorgeous yarn to wake up to!Acceptance on the left and Seaweed on the right. This is my first purchase from @cedarhouseyarns and their product photos show the true colors. It's so soft! I'll buy some more later but I hope this comes to one of my LYS soon! Acceptance is a limited edition colorway. All proceeds from the sale of this colorway will be donated to Navajo Hopi Solidarity to help with the COVID 19 outbreak.Fingering weight75% superwash merino wool25% nylonApprox. 463 yds / 423 meters#navajohopisolidarity #cedarhouseyarns #fingeringweight  #superwash #merinowool  #yarn #knittingfriends #knittingfriendsarethebestfriends #fiberfriends #fiberfriendsarethebestfriends
