In May I completed two knitted scarves.
This one took me about twelve hours to knit.
I love the fern pattern which I found in a book I picked up somewhere sometime ago.
The book is called mon tricot:1300 Pattern Stitches Advice Hints Knitting Dictionary.
I purchased the wool from the Faulconbridge Markets around twelve months ago from a lovely lady that spins and dyes wool from her own sheep.
This scarf, on the other hand, took me twelve months to knit.
I love them both.
The second one, I have now decided, needs some tassels or a fringe of some sort.
I have a ball and a half of wool left so I'm dreaming up a nice substantial finish.
Linking up with WIP Wednesday with Lee.
Do pop over and see her lovely star HST quilt top.

They look great! I especially love the one you made with the hand spun, hand dyed yarn. The color is just amazing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scarves! The second looks lovely as it is but can't wait to see what you're going to add to it!
