The scarf :)

So here is the finished scarf, sorry no pictures on its owner!
65% Icelandic wool
30% mohair
5% acrylic
Amazing combination - Wool makes it unbelievably warm, mohair adds softness and
acrylic will make sure it is wearable, durable and washable :)

Here you can peek and see the back side :)

And here is my previous post with a picture "in the process" :))

Scarf for HIM :)

Last two weeks I was busy knitting this scarf (that is I was laso busy working on my shop and studying)
As for the scarf - I wanted it to be soft, lovely, warm, long and.. and... and... everything a scarf should be.
I came up with the pattern by myself, but obviously, there is nothing new under the sun - I based it on many many other patterns.
Last year I tried a similar pattern on a scarf for a friend, but this one turned out to be more successful - easier to knit and looks prettier.

Here is the picture in the process:



I will upload the pictures of the finished scarf later. Also, I am trying to draw my patterns so that other people can use it (if I upload it to my blog for example), but so far I only used good old pen and paper. Are there any programs to draw knitting and crocheting patterns, I wonder...

Here is the finished scarf :)

Cabled scarf from Icelandic wool

Knitting is such a great way of relaxing after a long period of crocheting.
This scarf was made as a present to a friend. The pattern is "plagiarized" from a beanie of a woman sitting in front of me in the train :))
