Lace Ribbon Scarf

It just occurred to me that my latest finished knit qualifies for posting here since it was only 28″ when the Seasons Of Lace started and is 82″ now.   That works right?

My husband came home from France and Italy with balls of yarn for me!  This is from Phil Soie, 100% silk.  Just one skein, but enough for this slinky scarf in palest dusty rose.  Actuallythe “wrong side”, but I like . . . → Read More: And another fo Read more »

Stuck on Scarves

Although I intended (still intend) to knit the Candle Flame Shawl (for which I’ve had the pattern and yarn for more than two years), I’m stuck on knitting lace scarves (and my Monkey socks, off and on).

Lace Ribbon Scarf

I cast on for this scarf, using a skein of Blue Moon Fiber Arts yarns – Socks That Rock Mediumweight. I originally bought it to make a pair of socks, however I decided to overdye the whole skein using Lanaset Blue 483 from PRO Chemical & Dye.

I’m Off to a Good Start

I started the Montego Bay Scarf this morning.  I only had to start it twice, which is pretty good for me.  I’m a loose knitter, so I went down 2 needle sizes, but it wasn’t enough.  I’m using size 4 needles now, and I’m pleased with the fabric I’m creating.

I love the color of the Tofutsies.  . . . → Read More: I’m Off to a Good Start Read more »

Game On

Last nights case of insomnia gave me a good hunk of knitting time. I started my first project, the Flutter Scarf, just after 1 am. I’m Using Cherry Tree Hill’s Possum Lace, and am really loving the yarn – it’s so darn soft!

Then later this afternoon I started another project because I decided . . . → Read More: Game On Read more »
