About me

I have three kids and I spend most of my free time knitting.

Quiet River is the translation of my Chinese name, jiang ning or 江宁，and I like the two meanings of “knits by” as in made by and “knits by” as in knitting beside a river.

I’m KnitsByQuietRiver on Ravelry and Instagram.

#fiberuarychallenge day 11: fingering or bulky ... fingering / 4 ply!! It’s the most versatile and the best yardage to $$. I was trying to stage a photo with different types of 4 ply but a little someone would have none of it. 😂 And then there was that time that I discovered that 4 ply can stand in for dk or worsted when held doubled ... #fiberuary

#fiberuarychallenge day 10: coffee or tea? Coffee! Sometimes tea, but I must always start my day with coffee. I drink my coffee and tea without milk / cream, I don’t like how they mask the taste of the ☕️ or 🍵.

#fiberuarychallenge day 9: no. 9 on my queue- Meridien by #jojilocatelli. I have the 📖 and the 🧶. I can’t wait to knit this, but I will have to wait until baby is older and lets me concentrate properly on things. #fiberuary #baaramewe

#fiberuarychallenge day 8: knit or crochet? Knit!!! Well, I can’t crochet, I’ve tried to teach myself, with zero success. This is my scrappy log cabin blanket. I’m using DK, worsted, Aran weight plus fingering weight held double so there’s a place for everyone in this project! 🖤🖤🖤 #fiberuary

#fiberuarychallenge day 7: throwback project - my Shalder cardie from 2015. I still wear it, even though the right arm is a different dye lot. (Swipe to see me wearing it today) I love this colour, though I don’t love the yarn. This project took me nearly 2 years to complete and got me through some hard times, when I had pretty much given up knitting and anything else interesting in my life, and got me to find joy in living again. #fiberuary #gudrunjohnston

#fiberuarychallenge - I’m so behind, I had a bit of crazy week, but I’m going to try and catch up today. Day 6: Fiber friends- I don’t do knit nights, because evenings just don’t fit with my schedule, and I’m fine with that. I have, however, found a little someone to knit with recently. He’s 13, so won’t be pictured here, but this is his little garter square that’s been ripped back and reknit countless times. Eventually it will become a log cabin blanket. 😍
