For Courtney


So this is a giant scarf I made recently. It's made out of Lion Brand's Wool Ease Thick and Quick. It's a super bulky that knits up ridiculously fast. The scarf is six feet long and about twelve inches wide or so. It took a few hours to knit.


I had some scrap yarn sitting around so I made a hat. Just seed stitch because I felt it would highlight the yarn. Can't remember what it is though. Once again, it's super bulky and only took about two hours to knit (was watching Made of Honor at the same time).

A hat with a button. Jojoland Melody Superwash - superwash merino wool. Another quick knit. I used two strands and sewed the button on afterward.

I've been working on this armwarmer for awhile. And by "working on" I mean I started in early October, finished this much of it, then ran out of yarn. It's some kind of Plymouth Yarn wool. Galway something, maybe. I still need to do the thumb, and then start on the right arm. I have a fabulous three quarter sleeeved wool coat that looks great on, but needs extra arm warmth. That's what these are for.

Yea!!!
Thanks for the update. The hat with the button is really cute. I like the scarf too... how it is nice and wide. I was wondering what people did in those 3/4 length winter coats. Good luck on finishing those up. I haven't knitted anything in a while, but I usually get in the mood when it is cold outside so hopefully I'll get something done soon.
