Oh yes, I think I did. Ok so I'm a fickle person, easily distracted. But can you claim to being a One Project kinda knitter? I'm sure not. So here's my new love:
It's shrunk!
It's shrunk because last night I'd done 8 repeats long by 4 repeats wide of the Ridged Feather Stitch pattern for this wrap. Then I decided it wasn't wide enough, so I ripped it all out today and cast on for 5 repeats wide. The yarn is a yummy variegated Filatura Di Crosa mohair (from ebay of course) and you'll see the colours next time I'm sure as I can't put it down a.t.m.!
Meanwhile the crochet diagonal baby blanket is growing:
It's growing!
And looking rather organic I think:
Back to nature
Remember the lacy scarf from the latest Vogue Knitting mag that I was working on? Well it's finished but I rather fancy an edging in a little left-over white furry Eskimo yarn:
To edge or not?
Here's a close-up cuz I love it:
Surf's Up!
Definately surf-inspired.
Oh b.t.w., I made another yarn purchase yesterday, which I'll say no more about until it arrives apart from the fact that it's from the newly-found online shop of The Yarn Gallery. Check out the spiral scarf pins in the Jewellery section!
Judging from those photos, my projects seem to have taken on a blue tint recently. Maybe I'm all pinked out! Right, back to the knitting. :-)

I love all the blue WIP. I especially love the lacy scarf...I would like to try my hand at that next. The weather here in the states is cool and damp. I know this because I have been outside almost everyday watching my daughter play Varsity softball. Pray for warmer weather! Have a wonderful Mother's Day!
