JUST A KNITTIN
I am ready for some warm weather and so is Mikael
My first project that I had finished was a scarf for Dee. This was her birthday gift. My inspiration was a scarf that Alisha was wearing that she bought at Old Navy. Dee's request was for a purple scarf which was knitted with a chunky yarn from Michael's. It was three strips knitted 2K 2P 2K 2P 2K then braided. It's very soft and warm. Afte, I knitted it, Nell from Knitch said the pattern was in Vogue's Knitting magazine's Fall/Christmas edition.
When I was at the mountain retreat, I started on a baby blanket for Mrs. McGuire, who is celebrating the arrival of her first baby girl. this is her fourth child and first baby girl. The baby blanket was quick and easy
I also finished the alligator scarf for Kendra from Merino Farms but knitted it with Rowan Wool which created a larger and softer alligator.
Bret also inspired me to knit another hat. I like knitting hats because they're quick and you can be creative.
Hank, Lulu and Kendra came up last weekend and with much excitement a hail storm and threats of Tornadoes tried to dampen our fun. But it didn't stop them from finding some fun.
See ya next post. maybe I'll have some Timber hair spun with all the shedding that is going on.
