Gift Knitting....




This year I am knitting several scarves for teacher gifts. My boys have some great teachers this year and I hope these go over well! There can be a fine line between handmade goodness and homemade horror! This is Manitou Passage Scarf by Jen Showalter. meangirl.blogspot.com/2007/02/as-requested.html A terrific reversible cable scarf pattern that is fun and easy to knit. I am using leftover Rowan Calmer.


Next up is a modified Palindrome. Another reversible cable scarf. I am loving these! I cast on 28 stitches instead of 30 for a narrow scarf. It is knit with Lion Brand Organic Cotton

Love to write more but the clock is a tickin!

That's a lot of knitting on the needles. Good luck to you!
(For the record I am winding down Red and Purple Haze and have relocated to Wordpress. Thanks for having me on the sidebar!
