Whimsy is…

knitting seaweed and shells

YUP, I’m knitting a scarf. I discovered the beauty of the scarf last year at almost the end of winter.

I’m a knitting snob. It’s purely for pleasure and I like to knit cool things. I kinda felt like scarves were “beneath” me. That and I have a short attention span. I have to switch it up a lot.

And then I found some beautiful scarf patterns. Well, I take that back. First I found some gorgeous yarn that is a silk/wool blend. SILK and WOOL!! Two of my favorite fibers. In one glorious pink skein. I had to have it close to me. I could only afford two skeins. What could I make? I am not exaggerating when I say I have tried several patterns but none of them yarn worthy.

I have been petting, winding, unwinding, casting on and frogging this yarn for about 8 months. It’s time has come.

Seaweed and shells is the one.

What? you’d like to see a picture? Well sure!

This is her picture, not mine. I’m still casting on.
