Yippee! I finished the Drop Stitch Scarf I cast on for on the way home from my daughter’s soccer games a couple of weeks ago
Some of you may remember that I received this yarn from a friend.
When she bought me the yarn, she got the pattern for a Drop Stitch Scarf. The yarn store had a sample knitted up, and she loved it.
She also bought me these bamboo needles, which proved a blessing. I tried knitting this on my Options, but it was very frustrating. The yarn kept sliding off of the needles. So, I switched needles, and work progressed much faster.
Here is the finished scarf. I plan to give this to a gal in my office who, upon seeing the yarn, fell in love with it. I think the scarf will look great on her. Her skin tone is perfect for it. Plus, she has no idea that I’m going to give it to her. That’s the best part!
This is a close-up of the stitch…
I think I’m going to cast on for another booga bag. We have to travel this weekend, so it will be mindless knitting for the car ride. I would also like to cast on the the Lacy Bamboo Jacket with the yarn I bought in Vegas. I’ll post pictures…stay tuned!
