This month’s Instagram Challenge (Declarations of Love!) is already underway, but last month’s just wrapped up, and today I’m excited to share the seriously impressive results! Before I present the finalists (and our winning three), I wanted to say how insanely talented you guys are. Really, you took this knitting challenge to heart, and it was a home run. I cannot wait to see what you have for this month’s love theme. Thanks so much to everyone who entered and to Lion Brand Yarn for donating $25 gift cards and skeins of yarn to our three winners*! (Stay tuned, we’ll be sharing the full DIY steps for several of these projects soon!) xo, grace

What a wonderful selection of knitted things! I really enjoyed this instagram challenge, and all the beautiful creations. Looking forward to the Love theme!
Beautiful pictures! Inspiring projects!
As a huge fan of dressing up my dog (it’s cold in our house!), I have to say that dog sweater is a whole lot of awesomeness!
I believe the teal gloves are this pattern: http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEdf10/PATTringwood.php
I love knitting and I’m so impressed by people who can create something from scratch without a pattern. These items are so fun!
Is there a pattern for the sweater top by Audrey Romano?

Love the purse!
The baby sweater on the top by Susanne Grabowski is amazing!
I love this! I am a fairly new knitter, I love all of these great ideas!
What beautiful mittens!
what a cute pup!!!!!!!!!!
wow I really want to learn how to knit know, I should have tried harder when my mom tried to teach me!
I’m so thrilled to be included in this lovely and fun collection. Thanks ever so much!
Aha! I’ve that same rag-rug out of an old bedsheet, using big wooden dowels as needles! It was a fun project, though my hands ached afterward.
It’s currently gracing my desperately-in-need-of-a-redec bathroom floor. About the only ‘personalized’ thing I’ve done with that room.
I love that throw! hope it is one of the diys….it looks like I could maybe make it ;)
Is there a pattern out there for the heart gloves?! My niece might need a pair.
The heart gloves made by Sarah Shoemaker are adorable!
Yes. I NEED the patterns for the zippered clutch & the teal gloves!! And the heart garland!!
it would be really great if all the patterns were to be posted, not just the winners!
Are the patterns going to be posted here or a separate post?
