Sidewalk Arts Festival
Mood:  happy
I went to the Sidewalk Arts festival in Sioux Falls today. I had a great time, and of course bought some fiber. I got some hand spun, hand painted wool. Some hand spun Alpaca, a drop spindle, and some Alpaca roving. I don't know how to use the drop spindle yet. But I will probably try using it this winter.

Diagonal Rib Scarf
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: Woll Scarf
I knit this Diagonal Rib scarf using Columbia Minerva wool. The color is Red Wine. It measures 5 1/2 x 52 inches. It took me a long time to complete this scarf. I think that it took so long because I was preparing to go on vacation, then did not finish it until I got home from  vacation. And the pattern called for size 8 needles. I usually use a much larger needle size for scarves. The pattern can be found at http://www.darnyarn.net/large_images/ppdiagonalribwhite.htm
