nothing compares to finishing something
What a treat I have for you today!! I’ve finished 3 whole projects!!!
First, and possibly the cutest, is the worm scarf.
It’s made from only one ball of red cotton yarn. It didn’t take me too long, I just kept putting it off because I hate purling whole rows. The whole time I was making it, Eden kept asking me, “Where’s my snake? I want a pink snake? Where’s my snake?”
Here she is modeling it.
Next is the purple wool scarf. Knitted in a 2X2 rib stitch. The yarn is Brown Sheep Company’s Lambs pride bulky weight in Jacks Plum. This is my favorite “adult” scarf thus far.
Finally is a hat. I made it in all of 3 hours last night. I had originally intended this yarn to be for a scarf, but I couldn’t come up with a pattern that was masculine enough but wouldn’t take up tons of my time. The pattern is Hot Head page 162 of Stitch ‘n Bitch.
I used Brown Sheep Company’s Lambs pride worsted weight wool in Grey Heather. Since this pattern called for bulky weight yarn, I held two strands of the yarn together.
It’s nice to get some projects finished, but I have many, many more to finish.
