My new winter scarf

I wanted a new winter scarf. And I wanted it to be hand woven, because hand woven scarves are soooo warm and Beautiful! I have a Cricket Weaving loom, so I bought my yarn, Caron Simply Soft in the color Autumn Red and went to work weaving my scarf. It is 6 1/2 inches wide, 74 inches long, the fringe is 7 inches long, making the whole scarf 81 inches long. So very long that I can wrap it around my neck several ways. I just Love it!!

Another Mystery Knit Along

The yarn Knit Picks palette, the color French Lavender. The beads pink and gold. My camera photographs the purple a blue color. But it really is very purple.

A new hat for my husband

I knit Thorpe for my husband. I knit the largest size. It fits him perfectly! I did not have any chunky yarn, so I held 2 strands of worsted weight yarn together to knit my hat. It is knit from the top down, and has a crochet border, and braid ties. I Love this hat, and the man that wears it! :) the pattern can be found here
