2nd scarf is finished
Mood:  happy
I have finished my 2nd angular scarf. It really made a difference using variegated yarn. I am much happier with the look of the scarf. I used Red Heart yarn for this scarf the color is called Polo. The scarf measures 5 inches wide and 52 inches long. The pattern came from

I am not letting my knitting needles cool down one bit. I am starting my sisters gloves right away.

Glove pattern
Mood:  happy
I went to lunch, a couple of craft sales, and my LYS with my sister today. They had a really neat pattern for a knitted glove their. I have never knit gloves before. Any way this pattern is worked flat, and then sewn together. I think that I will be able to make this glove. It looks pretty easy. My sister bought me the pattern if I would make her a pair of gloves from the pattern, so of course I said yes. As soon as I am done with the scarf that I am working on I will start her gloves. I have 36 inches done on my angular scarf using variegated yarn. The scarf looks much better done with variegated yarn.

Scarf using variegated yarn
I have started my second scarf using variegated yarn, and the diagonal of the scarf shows up much better. I have about 10 inches done on this scarf.

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

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.

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

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.
