Scorpio is a sign of strength, intuition and emotional intensity. As a Scorpio knitter, you’re likely to take your craft seriously. Illustration: Julie Anson
You love to knit…
...with strong colours and luxurious yarns. You are most likely to look for patterns that incorporate interesting details and embellishments. Cabled and textured knits appeal to your sensuous nature and you search out projects that provide you and your loved ones with warmth and comfort as well as prettiness. When a Scorpio knits, it is likely to be a passion more than a mere hobby. You like to immerse yourself in its history and every aspect of knitting, from spinning to design.
UFO
You are sure of your likes and dislikes so there are no balls of yarn hiding in the corner of your stash bag to offend you. Your choice of pattern and yarn is always well-researched and you can’t bear to abandon a project mid-way through. If you have committed to make an article, you make it if it takes ten days or ten months.
WIP
Scorpios are often interested in the supernatural and symbolism – you were, after all, born around Halloween. Whether knitting for yourself or for others, you always choose relevant colours or motifs that symbolise your feelings or something about the person you are knitting for. At the moment you are making a pair of turquoise, cabled armwarmers for a friend who likes to write and paint at her house by the sea.
Knitting motto
“Knit today, knit tomorrow, knit forever.”
