First of all, apologies for the recent lack of posts. My internet has been somewhat tempermental as of late and I finally got myself dressed and out of the house on my day off (yesterday) and got it fixed.
So, here's what I've been working on!! See, I haven't been THAT lazy these few weeks.....The LOVELY yarn I blogged about last time has become a scarf. I started out on size 15 needles which did not yield the results I was looking for. I wanted something loose, almost lacy. S, in her infinite knitting wisdom, suggested I try her size giant needles (34?35?). It went by super fast and came out just the way I'd imagined it. And, as I said above, just in time for the sub-zero temperatures the Garden State (ha ha) seems to be experiencing.
This picture attempts to give a better glimpse of the scarf...
There is definitely something to be said for using large knitting needles. This scarf took me maybe one day (well, two because I didn't knit continuously all day) --- perfect length project for moi!
Next up? Socks, I think (although I'm afraid to start them on my own), or maybe I'll order more of this stuff and do another quickie!
