So I started making this scarf. Now it has been forever since I looked at any yarn directions, but these weren't too bad. Until I had to start using the cable needle....
I literally took the same 3 rows out 10 different times..... I even started adding stitches cause that's the only way it would work. Once I got to the second part of the cable needle my additional stitches weren't working.....I was starting to regret ever wanting to do this project. So I waited until I could ask my mom. She ended up reminding me to only repeat the steps that have the parentheses (that looks wrong...do you ever get that, or am I the only one?) around them.
That flipped the switch and once again to took the whole thing apart. *sigh*
Thanks to my mom I finally had something started. I was one happy camper!! It was really looking cool.
I couldn't put it down after that. Everyday after school, I would go and sit on my deck and knit in the beautiful late morning or early afternoon sun. That is if I didn't have to work...then I would either try to put a couple rows on or I would just wait for the next day.
I must say it's really coming along. I haven't been doing much with it lately only because it's getting a little too warm to knit....maybe tomorrow after my riding lessons I will, hopefully it's nice weather.
My friend saw my pictures on instagram of my green one and wanted me to make her one, and for her I couldn't say no. And I also thought 'hey this could be part of her Christmas gift this year!' That's at least one person down....
So I sent her all the colors that they had of the yard I needed to use, and she picked a light brown color that I really like too. I'm a little farther now on her scarf than in this picture, and I must say it's looking pretty good too.
I'm excited to get both of them done. I'll be sure to keep you guys updated.
See you all soon!
