Here's the scarf i made for Marissa...
Lion Brand yarn (color is Heather)
Lots of squares, which i then stitched together, and then added some fringe.
Took a bit longer than i expected, but it was fun!



I gave away my star blanket yesterday. They aren't opening it until Christmas, but still....it was had to part with.

There is no way that i will ever use this, but it was quick and easy and kind of cool.
Anybody want a green spiral scarf? It's a lighter green than the picture.

Anyway, babysitting saturday night was really easy. I taught all three of the kids (2 girls, one boy)how to knit! Even though they still don't really get it, it kept them busy for like 3 hours.


SOOO much better than barbies or play doh!

New scarf! I finished it today during the assembly at school. The yarn is called "Eden", and the color is 'apple'. It's so soft and warm, but it was a pain to make. It was nearly impossible to fix mistakes, because the fuz got tangled very easily...hopefully it won't become matted. ew.
It's about 7 ft long, 12 dbl crochet stitches per row, and made with a J (6 mm) crochet hook.

I need to find another project that is slightly more challenging...

I'm thinking of trying to knit a lace scarf, like http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEspring05/PATTbranchingout.html, next. It looks kind of complicated, but since it's a scarf it shouldn't take so long that i give up on it.

What do you think?
