Karrie let me borrow her camera again (Thanks Karrie!).
Here is the first (or if we are keeping track this is project four). I am calling it my brown lace scarf. Again, it is 100% pure alpaca.
I put a piece of paper behind it so you could see it a little better. Need a bigger piece of paper it looks like. I am pretty pleased. After only 2 days of knitting it is almost as long as the paper.
The next scarf I am calling the blue cable scarf (aka project 5). I am not sure if you can really see the cables on the scarf since well I can't see them very well, and I am holding it.
I didn't quite like how the single cable was looking on the scarf with variegated yarn so I decided to split it into two cables (which only used 4 stitches and flanked the trace of the 6 stitch cable) about halfway into the length. I knit some more then felt they should merge again so I brought the two of them back. I like the pattern but am not sure I choose the correct yarn for this project. It is only 6 inches long or so so I might still rip it back and try again. So perhaps I will provide an update that will have the scarf going further and perhaps I will tear it out and use a different pattern for this yarn. Stay tuned.
