I've done just what I told myself not to and started
a new knitting project.
It's Scalene, an asymmetrically shaped, triangular scarf
that can be worn several different ways.
I'm using Madelinetosh Merino Light--the first
time I've ever used this yarn--and as so many say, it is
incredibly soft. I love the hand-dyed color variations as well;
the colors I chose are Olivia and Fragrant.
Though there's not a lot of time for knitting right now,
I'm happily squeezing in a few rows during morning
tea {and muffin} time or while sitting on the glider at twilight
as the fireflies begin to sparkle about...Deb
It looks lovely. I was wondering why you hadn't a lot of time for knitting then I remembered why I have lots just now -- it's summer and you're busy outside!
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely colors, can't wait to see it all done. xx
ReplyDeletewould be fun to watch fire flies....have seen them only once or twice....they don't 'live'in the North west:-)
ReplyDeleteI love Scalene. I have my pattern and just need to decide on two colours to start on mine. Yours will be lovely, I look forward to seeing it done.
ReplyDeleteNot much progress at present, but I will update as more is done--can't wait to see your Scalene...Deb
DeleteI'm loving the colors of your Scalene.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ruth! By the way, I love that Simplicity skirt you made and it looks beautiful on--I think I may have to get that pattern!...Deb
DeleteOlivia and Fragrant - loving the names of those yarns Deb. Trying to spy what books are on your little table but to no avail...
ReplyDeleteFireflies remind me of lovely holidays in sunny climes.
