I was commissioned in December to make a scarf for a family member. I agreed, what knitter wouldn’t, to be asked to knit something the wearer would like is a wonderful compliment. I was also commissioned to make a hat for another family member. Both understood that I needed to finish Granny’s long-overdue gift first. I found a stitch pattern to turn into a scarf, but the more I knit of it, the more I wasn’t sure how warm of a scarf it would make. I set about to work more on the scarf this week, but discovered I placed the pattern in a super secure location so I would not lose it. I didn’t lose it, I just don’t remember where the super secret secure location is at the present moment. That is all right as far as I am concerned, it allowed me to alter the pattern to a new one that I found in one of my Grammy’s knitting books. It’s far too simple of a stitch, but I love the color work for the stripes. The one drawback is working in all the ends. I think I will stop breaking the yarn for the small stripes and run it up the side. Here is a work-in-progress picture:
