spt and scarf



I finished my second ever knitting project and my first lace project. I think it turned out pretty darn well. (after I frogged it) I'm loving bamboo yarn. It's so soft and has a luxe sheen to it. It had a lot of...plys? Is that what you say? They were a lot of threads that made up the single yarn...cord?

As mentioned before the pattern is from knitty. I'd like to make it again, with a thicker yarn in a darker color and change the pattern a bit.

The self portrait you can see on my flickr.

Post Picture: Closer-up of the pattern of my scarf. Bro2 promptly said, "This is for show, right?" since we live in CT and a scarf with holes doesn't make sense to him. heh...men.

  2. It's so pretty! I've abandoned knitting so I'll just admire your work, haha.

    And while I really wish I could wear things like that up here, it's just a little impractical. Except for the spring, it'd be perfect for spring!

  3. Second EVER?!? Damn girl I'm impressed. That would have not turned out like that if I did it and it would have taken ten years to make. I am the slowest knitter in the world.
