So, I know that daughter #1 doesn't read my blog at all, so I'm safe showing this Christmas gift. I made an infinity scarf, and I've got the matching mittens almost finished. The scarf looks kind of short, but it's a ribbed variation, and it stretches out a lot. I can wear it wrapped twice around my neck, or with one wrap over my head, with a second wrap around my neck - it all depends on what the weather is like....
I bought the yarn at Mary Maxim about 5 years ago - just happened to hit there during their annual summer Tent Sale, and scooped up all 5 balls of this Caron Simply Soft yarn - and it feels so soft and snuggly! I'll probably have some of the yarn left over - there might even be enough to make another pair or two of (smaller) mitts for the mitten tree at my MIL's church. I'd have to have them done by Dec. 1st, so I think I'd better stop writing, and get knitting!
Here's the scarf, and the almost completed mitts:

Your scarf and mittens looks snuggly warm. I love the color of the yarn too.
ReplyDeleteI love your scarf! Did you use a pattern or create it on your own? I like the idea of being able to put it over your head, too.
ReplyDeleteGreat gift!
