As promised!

And without further ado...here is my Sweetgrass scarf in progress...

Isn't she pretty!  It is made from my handspun...a mix of wool and silk.  The resulting yarn is a bit rustic looking but with a really nice strong yet soft feeling to it.  The pattern is the Seattle Bloom scarf which is found in the Sock Yarn One-Skein Wonders book.  I love this book, it is where I also got the pattern for my Lettuce Slide scarf.  My handspun is thicker than sock yarn but I don't mind a wider scarf.  Not after last winter that is for sure.  In any event, I love the subtle striping of the scarf.  I'm knitting with my handspun so I can have more samples at my sale tables in the future.  Like that is a hardship.  smile...I love knitting with my handspun.  Although I'm not sure about the yardage, according to the pattern it needed 400 yards.  I had about 440 yards and I left out two repeats, one for chart A and then the corresponding repeat in chart B.  Hopefully that will be enough, since I do not have more roving.  But that is me, always living on the knitting world edge!  Stay tuned.   

Crazy Jam Packed Life

Hello, I used to blog here.  sigh.  Still no camera.  I have a new one.  It came with no memory card.  I can take 3 pictures.  Add to list - go buy new memory card.

Work is so crazy busy that last night while watching House Hunter's International they went to Iceland.  I thought it sounded lovely.  They have sheep there.  I may have thought about checking air fare.  Already know house prices.  Just saying. 

Please come back soon.  I promise I will have new pictures.  Really.  And not just made up ones from my mind.  Now that would be scary.
