I finished my first scarf, wore it, and decided I wanted to make it longer. I thought I would want to wrap it around multiple times in the SD winter. On Friday I was finally able to go to the yarn shop in Sioux Falls to get the seafoam color to add to the ends. So I finished it again, much to the disappointment of Kavi and Roscoe, who thought it was a comfy perch. It's about 8 feet long. The yarn is Lamb's Pride (from Nebraska sheep) bulky weight, which has wool and mohair.
I learned Continental style, which is much faster, and easier on the hands. I cast on a new scarf right away, this one in "cafe au lait," "sand dollar," and "blue magic" worsted weight Lamb's Pride with smaller needles. This is step two in the knitters' evil plan to get me to knit socks against my will.

Socks are fun and challenging!! I just finished my first "learning" sock. Can't wait to show you! Your scarf is beautiful! Now on to bigger socks like an adult size pair! Matka
It sounds like Matka wants socks for Christmas! Very classy looking scarves. You have great taste in colors. Go Hawks! Your uncle Jeff took me to the Minnesota game and I am still in the clouds over all of the fun.
