Here are some works in progress. First, I have made it 1 2/3 times through the cable repeats on the everyway wrap. Looking good and super soft so far. The yarn may be a little fuzzy to really show the cable pattern well, that would be the 20% alpaca in it. But I like the feel and I am pretty satisfied with the look.
Here's a close-up for the stitch pattern from the right side. Its a pretty cable pattern and clever how the back side comes out the same. :-)
Here is side one of the Pfeifer Falls hooded scarf. Its soooooo pretty and squooshy. :-) I am in love with the Royal Llama yarn. I totally want more in every color! Although I love this pretty and decadent feeling off white. :-) There is something luxurious feeling to me about cremes and whites. Perhaps it is because I am just clumsy and messy enough that I fear white just a little bit. But it makes such a lovely compliment to dark or bright colors that I often want to wear it, I just don't often actually do it.
Well, thats my photo update for today. Back to the actual knitting!
As many of you know, I love working with hand dyed yarn. I especially love Farm Girl Fiber yarn! Bridgette has an eye for color and has a lot of fun with what she does. That is why I am so super thrilled that Farm Girl Fiber is sponsoring this giveaway in honor of my opening an etsy shop! Before the goods, a recap: I made this Acorn Head hooded cowl for myself on Christmas this year. I've known pretty much since I bought the yarn exactly what it was going to be, I just had to find time to do it. This cowl was out of my FGF birthday yarn! You can't tell in the picture, but it has just this hind of sparkle to it. Love! I made 2 of these for two different swaps and I really wish I had made and kept one for myself while she still had the yarn! It was so super soft and super bulky and fantastic! Sometimes Farm Girl Fiber has very limited lots of things, so if you find something you love, you really need to snatch it up. ...
