Addicted to scarves



I'm addicted to knitting these little scarves.

This newest scarf just a double rib made out of Wool-Ease for Jason. I've been working on it a while as it's not the most fun thing in the world to knit a double-rib scarf. :) But it's finally finished :)

I've made another one for my mom and ran out of yarn on the point!! And it's the shop that is going out of business. I thought I had 2 balls, but it turned out one ball as 4 ply and one was 8 ply. Same color - but look & weight was different. :(

More scarves


This is one for Jason and one for me :) Jason's is in Simply Soft, and mine is in Lorna's Laces Shepard Worsted. A truly wonderful yarn. Soft and not itcy - also a superwash wool.


I also scored a major stash win today. A local shop had 40% off due to the location they are at going out of business. With only 1 week's notice!! I'm sad they are going away, but very happy for the bargains!

Koigu scarf



Ymmmmmm - I made a version of the scarf in Koigu KPPPM - double-stranded. Oh, it's yummy. I think I might keep this version as a gift to me :)

Back to the beach

We went to the beach for a Come to Christ Conference - our church's annual conference. Colin and the kids got to go with my sister & her family and my parents. I was not feeling well this trip - so didn't go.

Here's the family!!
