I have been playing nicely - looky looky! My first baby steps in returning to knitting (last did serious - if you could call it that - knitting when I was still at school)
My sky scarf - each month will be a different stitch and as I go along I intend to get braver and attempt more complicated patterns.
I am having such fun firstly doing the recording of the sky colours - I am keeping an eye over the whole day which is why there are so many colour variations and then translating my colouring into knitting is actually good fun.
I suspect you 'proper' knitters out there have noticed the fringe on the left of the scarf. This is my second attempt, the first only being a one row per day meant the final scarf would only be about 75cm long so I ditched it. However, with my first attempt I wove in all the ends, when I started this one I decided that I actually liked the fringing along the edge and am deliberately leaving a length of yarn. Once I finished the whole project I will trim them neatly..
Before I go - a sneak preview - just look at what my mom knitted for me!
How brilliant is that?! Oh - notice the little stool I'm standing on? Well she did that too! The socks however are the model's own (hahahaha) and yes I do deliberately choose to wear odd ones - it makes me happy :)
Pop over to the Yarnival page - it's about to be updated

the sky scarf is looking very good and I gree with you about the fringe - I like it. Your Mum is so clever I love the Yarnival banner and the stool
ReplyDeleteYour sky scarf is going to be wonderful; ignore the purists and do your own thing!!!! Can't wait til next KnK to see all the obelisks etc for Yarnival - getting very excited about it all now.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving that sky scarf, what a wonderful idea. The socks--awesome! My girls both love to wear odd socks, I think it shows a most interesting personality.
ReplyDeleteI love the scarf, and wow, your Mum is amazing for making that!!!
ReplyDeleteIsn't she! You should see what else she has recently made!
DeleteI thinks it's great how all our sky scarves are so different. I'll do a round up at the end of the month. Mine is still stubbornly grey!
ReplyDeleteWHat a great idea for the scarf. Mine, like Fiona's s has been fairly grey the last few days. Coming along although, I have to say, if I get to the end it is going to be very, very, very long!
