Latest update


Well here is an update since I have not posted in a while. I have found a great gaming web site where you can create an Avatar like the one pictured on my site. I also have been working on a scarf as a charity project.

I am including a picture of the scarf part way done. This is not how the scarf looks at this point in time because I am almost done since I am thinking about a 60" scarf and I am at about 52" in length. The yarn is from Caron and is their Simply Soft
Shadows yarn in the Pearl Frost color. which is working up wonderfully and will make a nice warm scarf for someone who needs one.

Also here is a closeup of the pattern that shows the "basketweave" style of the scarf. It is done with 40 stitches Cast on and then doing four rows of starting with Knit four and then purl four alternating ending with the opposite stitch I started with. Once the four rows were done I switched and started with purl four then knit four across.


I am amazed that when I am working on the scarf while on break at work people ask "When are you making mine?" Guess I could make some extra money right?? Nah then it would not be "fun" to do anymore. Besides not everyone likes the things I do!!
