So here it is.
I’ve *finally* finished the hooded scarf I’ve been working on for months. I wanted to get it done before it snowed…and I just about made it.
I made it long enough so that I can toss it back over my shoulders if I want to.
The lovely thing is, I bought enough yarn that I’ve got some left over for mittens. I’ve already started working on those. The pattern I have, with a single cable across the top of the hand knit up in a few hours.
So, if I can find a few spare hours over the next week or so, I might just get those finished, too.
This is a beautiful photo!!! And the scarf looks great!! Would you be willing to send me a full sized copy of the photo?
Hi Sue! Thanks! I’m so pleased it turned out so well. I like it so much I haven’t blocked it yet, but I’ve worn it as often as possible? Why could you possibly want a larger photo??
Lovely! I have a hooded scarf on my to-knit list, too! Merry Christmas!
Hi Lemony! How are you? This scarf was so easy…yet the pattern looks very complicated up close. Let me know if you want the pattern. 🙂 Merry Christmas to you, too!
Hey, that looks great! So does the scarf. 🙂
Hi Charlie! You always were a charmer…
Hi Kelly! I found your site through the Night Owl Reviews Scavenger hunt and am thrilled! You’re a new to me author and have now found some more dragon books to read! Whooot! Love dragons! 😉 In scrolling down, I noticed this pic of you and your hooded scarf, it is beautiful! Would it be possible to get the pattern for the scarf and mittens? If so, my email is thewildtwo [@] sbcglobal [dot] net.
Thanks so very much and Happy Holidays to you and yours!
Hi Kim! Thanks for dropping by. You’ll have to let me know what you think of The Dragon’s Clause (or The Dragon and San Marino, as it’s known in the Black Dragon, White Dragon anthology). I had a lot of fun writing about Italy.
As for the knitting patterns: I used a Lion Brand pattern ($0) called Little Red Riding Hood’s Hooded Scarf. You can find it here: http://www.lionbrand.com/patterns/BK4K-0701008.html?noImages=. The mittens are a pattern on the Cariss Knits Blog: http://carissaknits.blogspot.com/2007/06/cabled-fingerless-mitts.html.
Good Luck!
