Projects 08


I am a neverending scarf knitter. I love knitting scarves for some reason. I love finding new and interesting lace or texture stitch scarf patterns. This is a simple one from the "Yarn Harlot" I found on Ravelry(by the way , I am alexknits on ravelry). It is a free pattern called "Simple Handspun Scarf" something close to that. Any it is a multiple of 4. You knit 2, knit tbl, purl 1. You do this until your little heart is content with the length and bind off. I used size 10 needles and worsted weight wool yarn. I am on my 3rd or 4th one. I love this pattern and it looks so nice. Everyone seems to love it. Working on a sock for my husband who always has cold feet! pictures soon.

I think your knitting is fantastic. I'm just learning this semester because I have an easy course load and one of my friends is teaching me some basics to pass the time. She is really into knitting and currently trying to get all these grants so that she can research knitting patterns around the world as a grad student. It is so amazing, she's already been able to accrue close to $20,000 for post graduate studies. Can you believe people would give so much money to a 22 year old looking to contrast knitting patters between Scotland and Bangladesh? Who knew! HAPPY KNITTING!
