Some Dec. FO's
I used up a lot of my caron baby yarn leftovers for the pastel scarf and hat for my little GD Lexi. The scarf is a pattern I just made up. the hat is the Kiddie Cadet Hat by Kathryn Ivy. I just left off the brim.

The blue scarf is for my dad. It's malabrigo colorway continental. the pattern is the Palindrome Scarf.

The purple is also malabrigo, in the color Holly Hock. The pattern was A Touch of Whimsy Scarf. It's for my mom.

I have to say that no matter what I do to change colors, I'm never actually happy with the way it turns out. I've followed lots of different advice, but it's always sort of funny.

Nice! You gotta love that Palindrome Scarf pattern, it always looks good, and especially in nice colors like you used. Good job!
