scroll scarf

I needed a little project. Something easy that I could work on while I tackled my wips. Knit a little of this, a little of that. Maybe a scarf. I’m in a scarf-knitting mood. Weird – I haven’t knit a scarf in almost a year, let alone had the desire to knit one. I made a list of yarns I wanted to try and headed to one of my lys. A list of yarns for a scarf? But at this particular store I tend to buy yarn in bulk with no pattern in mind and usually in a color that 10 minutes later I hate. I left with lots of good yarn, but forgot my list on the counter – which also contained my grocery list. The list went something like
TT 1 sk
Manos mint 2 sks
Madil Kid Seta souffle & lime
Asparagus
Eggs
Almonds
They didn’t have the Madil Kid Seta so I’ll have to add that to a new list. It will be combined with the manos based on a pattern/yarn combo from a book. I decided to get a bit more creative with the first scarf, using a stitch pattern out of Barbara G. Walker’s A Treasury of Knitting Patterns.

    It’s really funny that you mentioned about hating the colour you chose 10 mins after leaving the store. I’m kind of like that too :) .

    Oooh, that yarn shows knit stiches really well. And I like the stitch you chose, how it curves at the sides. Nice “little” project :)

    What a pretty stitch pattern you picked out! With the hot weather around here, I’ve been thinking about small projects too. :-)


  4. I’m de-lurking to say I think this is one of the most beautiful knitted items I have ever seen. The color and the pattern are simply gorgeous.

    What would a person have to do to convince you to share that beautiful pattern? It is gorgeous.
