My cutest neighbor, Elise, is sporting a new hat and scarf. (I should have made it thinner and longer; she's going to outgrow that scarf in no time!) It's done all over in a cloverleaf eyelet pattern (from Barbara Walker's A Treasury of Knitting Patterns, 1968) with seed stitch borders and beaded fringe for the hat. What a doll! (By the way, that's proud daddy, Glen, helping Elise model her new accessories.)
I made another ruffled scarf. This time I used one and a half skeins of Malabrigo chunky yarn so it would be longer. It worked out nicely.
I made two of these scarves. The variegated one came out better because it was longer and I thought the colors would look nice with jeans and a white t-shirt. It almost looks camo-ish. I casted on 300 instead of 200 for the blue one. My fingers still hurt from binding off 900 stitches last night. Here is a link to the pattern: http://www.cosmicpluto.com/blog/?p=1027
I am calling this one Crazy Aunt Ethel
