Angus scarf is finished
Now Playing: Lang Tosca Version
I have finished my first Angus angular scarf. I used a solid color for this scarf. I used Lion Brand Jiffy yarn, the color plum. The pattern came from
http://www.smallknits.com/patterns/free%20patterns/angus%20angular%20scarf.pdf
I was supposed to use sock yarn and smaller needles for this scarf, but I wanted to use worsted weight yarn so I did. I used size 7 needles. I am going to make another scarf in variegated yarn so that the angles show up better.
This scarf is 5 inches wide and 52 inches long.

No time for knitting today
Mood:
energetic
My husband and I went to Sioux Falls today, and had a picnic at the Falls Park. It was just a BEAUTIFUL fall day. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Scarf
I stayed home all day today, and worked on my scarf. This evening I watched a movie and knit on my scarf. I have 31 inches done on it. I am doing it in a solid color. I should have done it in a variegated color, so that the diagonal in the scarf would show better. I may make another one variegated to see the difference. I am using Lion Brand Jiffy yarn the color plum, which I like but the diagonal just doesn't show up enough.

Scarf
Mood:
happy
I am knitting an Angus scarf. It is an Angular scarf. The one that I am knitting is called the Lang Tosca Version. It is knitted end to end in one piece. I have 11 inches done on the scarf so far. I am using Lion Brand Jiffy yarn. It is a very easy pattern and I love the way that the scarf looks.

The pattern is from the 60's or the 70's.

knit dish cloths
I have knit 2 dish clothes. I love hand knit cotton dish clothes. Because they are made of cotton and wear like iron. I used a variegated cotton yarn, in the colors, cream, green, and Burgundy. The patterns are Knitted Lacy Round Cloth , the URL for this dish cloth is
http://www.knittingknonsense.com/lacyround.html
The other cloth is called the Infamous Darrell Waltrip Cloth. The URL for this cloth is
http://www.knittingknonsense.com/DW_cloth.html
Both patterns were easy to knit, and worked up fast.

Ribbed Watch Cap
I finished the Ribbed watch cap that I was making for my son in law. He likes winter sports, and is a carpenter, building homes, so he is outside in the winter working. I thought that maybe this would keep his head warm. The pattern is very easy and works up fast. I used Galway Colornep yarn, the color is a dark plum. The URL for the pattern is at
http://www.vintageknits.com/hat.html
I was going to crochet a ring next but the beads that I bought will not string onto the elastic thread that I bought. The holes in the beads are not big enough. I will have to find finer elastic thread. So I have decided to make a knit dish cloth instead. It is a circular dish cloth. I have never knit a circular dish cloth before.

Burrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!
Another chilly day today. I have 6 inches done on the hat that I am making. It is done on circular needles and is very easy. I bought the elastic thread and the pearls for my next project. It is a ring from the Groovy site. I think that the pattern is from the 70's.
