A month has passed all too quickly. And truthfully I was not knitting through all of it. It was just one of those time when RL and lack of motivation conspired…..
There were actually several times when I planned to knit, wanted to knit, but somehow just didn't. I even enjoyed knitting the scarf even though it was a boring rectangle.
I thought I would finish it Thanksgiving day and spent the morning figuring out my next project. But I didn't finish until Friday, and I didn't block the scarf until Sunday…..and…and…and…
But here it is. This is all you get. I spent the day in my pajamas, probably for the first time in several years, with one of the worst colds I have had in a few years as well. At least I am getting it out of the way early in the season
Needless to say there is more knitting and I will update you on that tomorrow, or the next day, depending on just how the days go. Usually my colds don't last long so I am hoping that I can catch up tomorrow on all those things I didn't do today.
In the meantime I am not knitting particularly fast or efficiently, but I am still making good progress because it is one of the few things I can do without moving my head from the back of my chair.
Here is the scarf with the fingerless mitts:
I am looking forward to wearing them.

Those ARE pretty! I’ll bet you get lots of compliments.

I really like this scarf … which rather surprises me, as the picture in the book (part of my knitting library) didn’t really appeal to me. Perhaps your yarn is more delicate, and softens the look? I don’t know, but I do like it and will be rethinking my attitude towards (against?) the pattern.

I’ve got a seasilk scarf I knit in a similar pattern — is yours cashmere or a blend? it looks yummy!
