Leaf Lace Scarf

[rebecca]

:D OMGoodness, can u believe it, I've got 2 projects on the needles!!! Yes, I know.... UNBELIEVABLE !!!! I couldn't help myself, I had to knit something with the yummilicious Bamboo yarn that Lonnie gave me for our anniversary. So, I put down the socks (2nd sock, not quite done ) and began knitting the Leaf Lace scarf found in spring/summer 2005 Vogueknitting (it's the pink one in the middle). This is a very fun knit, I've altered the pattern a bit by using Annie Modesitt's double knit edge stitch (used in Backyard Leaves from Scarf Style & Alison's Scarf (pdf file)) which keeps the scarf from curling inward...Annie is a genious with such things
I'm off to knit :D

I think the scarves in the latest issue are so pretty! I ordered some lace yarn from Knit Picks and just got it in the mail the other day. I plan to knit at least one of those scarves. I LOVE knitting lace. :XX:

Looks great so far! I tried to be a monogamous knitter and that just didn't happen!

I love your outdoor pictures of knitting!

[rebecca]

:D Thanks! Celine, which yarn did you get from knitpicks? I've used alpace cloud before, it was quite nice. I will admit that I love knitting lace design, but I'm not very good with lace wt yarn :rollseyes:
LOL, I've always been monogamous with whatever art/craft that I've done, I get all weird with more than one project going @ the same time...it's bugging me now that I've got 2 going....WHAT'S UP WITH THAT?! :rofling: But, AHHHHHHH, this bamboo is just too fun to knit with; I think that I could knit with SWTC yarns forever

It is beautiful yarn Rebecca and I can see why you wanted to use it. That happens to me too.

You are shocking me with two projects on the needles!!!!!

I KNOW It's killing me, I can't do it for long....how do ya'll survive with so many things going @ one time, I'd be a complete WRECK :rofling: I'm helpless, am I really a knitter?!

Oh, it is such yummmmmmmy yarn, I'm taking my time knitting this scarf bc it's such fun to knit with this yarn :D

That looks incredible so far! I love the colors. (And they match so nicely with the mulch! :rofling: ) Can't wait to see it finished!

Now that I've picked myself up off the floor from the shock... this is the second time in less than 2 weeks that you've had 2 projects going... I feel the fabric of the space/time continuum beginning to shred...

Great looking scarf BTW!
