I’m completely charmed by this knitted font by Rüdiger Schlömer. It’s simple slip stitch knitting, sideways, and you can make your knitting say whatever you’d like!
This would be even more legible with a heavier yarn and tighter gauge, but I used a DK that I had in stash, and a US 2 needle. I’d go for worsted next time.
You can order a copy of this ebook from Modern Daily Knitting. I ordered mine when Kay first wrote about it, when you had to order from the author in Switzerland. MDK is easier. Go for it!
Another heads up: Tonight is the peak of the annual Geminid meteor shower. If you have clear skies, go out and take a look! I saw 28 meteors this morning as I was admiring Orion before dawn. Here’s more info from earthsky.org. And it doesn’t have to be tonight; it’s going on during most of December.
I’m really happy with my upgrade from an iPhone X to a used iPhone 14 Pro earlier this year. Night sky pictures are a lot easier with the upgraded camera and night mode. This picture is only lightly edited. Someday I hope to see the Aurora Borealis! My old phone couldn’t handle it.
Happy December! It’s flying by quickly. Are you gift knitting? I’m not!
