My Gram’s birthday is tomorrow (Halloween) and I finished her scarf just in time! It was a really quick knit, but it kind of went a little slow because I only did a few repeats a day.
Here is the run down on the scarf:
Yarn: Mondial Oggi is a soft mohair blend with a little bit of shine and subtle striping in a luscious array of colors. Content: 40% Mohair/40% Acrylic/20% Wool One Skein used
Pattern: knit two rows, one row twisted drop stitch
Needles: Punkknits 9mm Needles found here
Length: Roughly 70 inches
We brought Gram out for breakfast this morning. It was about 40 degrees outside, so I grabbed her scarf and asked her if she’d like her birthday present. She said no, but I told her it was cold outside so she had no choice. I handed it to her and her whole face lit up.
She loved it. “Oooh! It’s my color and everything!!”
At least I got one thing right today
And those needles are really great to work with, but they’re a little on the heavy side. So if you’re used to doing only socks, your arms might ache a little until they get used to em.
