work in progress: derailed knit fail

not all adventures in yarn lead where you wish nor are resounding successes. in the case of this scarf, i began but found after seeing the striated color pattern emerge that, given the stitch, i'd rather go another way with the yarn. i haven't an actual frog pile but this is going to be frogged before nightfall to be worked into something awesome.

completed: bulky alpaca blend knit scarf

i finished knitting this last night. i love the pastel color wisps in the yarn & i'm fairly excited to give the skeins of this yarn in purple the same treatment. for the life of me, i can't recall where i got this yarn but it's been in my yarn stash for a while. i'm glad i've got around to using it.

work in progress: bulky alpaca blend knit scarf

after a rifle through my yarn stash, i came upon a bulky alpaca blend that's been begging to be used for too long. so, out came the circular needles, i poured a glass of chardonnay and set to work. this is it's current progress and it looks even better knit than it does in skein.

personal knitting: big citron cowl

it's always nice to get some personal knitting in, so when i had some time recently, i whipped this citron cowl up for myself. i'd made a cowl for my madre & wanted one for myself. :) thr citron color is a fave but i don't often run into yarn that shade.

work in progress: ribbed thermal knit scarf

i began knitting this scarf yesterday afternoon & while i've not had much time to work on it, it's coming along nicely. the yarn is a soft, sqishy lamb's wool & acrylic blend & i'm using double strands here on circular needles.

Introducing the Riordan Infinity Scarf & Giveaway Coming

I wanted to make something a little special to add to my shop offerings for this winter & came up with the RIORDAN. It's roughly the same size as the SAMANTHA but made with a different stitch. I've made these scarves with a crochet stitch that lends texture & cuddliness. The yarn used is extremely soft & in some quite lovely jewelled colors. I'll be adding them to the shop this weekend, so do look for RIORDAN infinity scarves here.

Additionally, one of the lovely RIORDAN scarves (the royal purple) will be given away on GoForTheGusto Blog. Halley's blog is lovely & has wonderful style collections, so drop by & check it out. I'll post here with the direct link to the scarf giveaway when it goes live, so stay tuned.
Have a Great Weekend!
