An in-between knit
This small scarf was an in-between project. While waiting for additional beads for my Snow Queen to arrive, my eyes fell on an old issue of Piecework Magazine, the July/August 2009 issue. I found this little gem, designed by Nancy Bush just so I wouldn't get out of practice knitting nupps. It used just 40 grams (less than 1-1/2 oz) of fingering weight yarn. The yarn came of a cone of Jaeger Spun Maine Line 2/8 weight yarn purchased from www.sarahsyarns.com . The color is turquoise.
And look, the snow has melted and we actually had about 3 minutes of sunshine. But not to get too optimistic. The weather forecast calls for more snow, later in the week. Let's all bow to the wheather god/goddess and say "enough." Let Spring begin.
The beads have arrived. Now I can go back to my Snow Queen.Knit on merrily!

Lovely. I bet Jeri Riggs would love this one :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, it's gorgeous. I was thinking about knitting an estonian pattern from Nancy Bush - maybe a scarf is the best way to learn nupps before going wild with a shawl. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scarf, amazed it took so little yarn to make it.
