Another color has shown up. I expected some kind of green, but it turned out to look purple. I'm going to start the second ball from the outside in because I think it will work out better that way. The colors might go in reverse order and end up the darker blue, but I truly don't know.
This was an inexpensive wool blend yarn from Walmart. It is not the cheapest yarn they carry, but I don't really expect that they were careful about color changes. They were from the same dye lot, but I'm not sure how much that will matter.
The pattern is a simple lace pattern. It looks more textured in the photo than anything else. Even though every other row is a pattern row, it is very easy to do because you can read the pattern more than you are counting it, although I am doing both. An almost perfect watching TV project.
The scarf is beginning to grow on me. Who knows. I might even keep it.
I have never had two knitting projects going at the same time. I do that with quilting projects because they are always at different stages. But I know that the first sock will not be a TV watching project. So I just might start one again since I am trying, yet again, a new process.
Is this the Amazing yarn? If so, I made a couple hats from it and I loved it. The little girls love their fuzzy hats. I love this color way and the way it stripes in your scarf.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is Amazing. I keep forgetting what it is called when I'm blogging and I'm too lazy to go and look.
DeleteI think it's coming lovely! Your knitting posts make me want to pick up my needles again! Maybe after I finish my current TV project I'll start a knitting project. It's been so long, though that I'll have to refresh my skills!
ReplyDeleteThat is a pretty scarf you are working on, Stella. Nice and fuzzy and warm looking... Love the colours!
