Thursday Threads

My newest hobby is knitting. I learned to knit right after Christmas and I've made several projects since then. Today I'm sharing a knitted scarf.

Yarn: Misti Chunky Baby Alpaca 


Do you knit? I'd love to hear about it!

Thanks for visiting!

Hugs,

Okay, I need to learn how to knit. Next retreat please teach me how to cast on and one basic stitch. Love this colorful scarf.

Your scarf looks great!! No I don't knit. I could do some beginner crochet, and I do some embroidery.

Your scarf looks great - Love the colors.

I used to knit a lot when I was younger - but my needles were getting dusty in my basket ( all my grandchildren want fleece scarfs) - till January when a friend put me on to Premier Yarns - fishnet yarn and the incredibly beautiful cascading scarf you can make from it. I ordered on line from Herschners which was more reasonably priced than buying from Premier it self. I have been busy tending to my own knitting and my husband likes to say ever since.

Check it out you may like it. you only have to carry 8 stitches on your needle and one skein of yarn makes an adult size scarf. I have gotten so many comment from people when I wear mine out and one lady wanted to buy it right off my neck.

Ooops didn't mean to write a novel.

Hugs,
Penny

Lovely scarf. I've knitted a few things but not much since coming to this tropical island! But I made 3 pairs of fingerless gloves (so that you can still type!) one each for my 2 girls, and one for myself. My eldest is studying in Edinburgh, and the second is going to Exeter in sept. They were such fun. Will try track the pattern if you're interest. Must take a photo too.
