In honor of one of my favorite holidays

A blog post filled with (mostly) green.

Gathered Scarf, in bloom

I completed my Gathered Scarf.  It is VERY green and also VERY long.  I stopped knitting before I got to 80″, but the thing ended up blocking out to 92″.  It’s great though and I love it.  So does Lambie:

Pattern: Gathered Scarf by Maryse Roudier

Yarn: Dream in Color Smooshy, Happy Forest

Needles: US 6 and US 9

I’ve also been working on a couple of different tops.  One is moving along really quickly.  I had hoped to finish it by St. Patrick’s Day, but I sort of stalled out when I got to armhole shaping.  I may get back on it today.  For now, my last progress shot will have to hold everyone over until I get the thing done.

I’m also working on a sweater that is not green, but I thought you might want to see the small amount I have done.

That’s about it for now.  I will aim for more words in my next post.  Now I will leave you with this:

Kitties behaving badly

This could actually be a regular blog feature.  Dottie and Bob are always getting into things and places they shouldn’t.  Luna and Moxie are usually good or at least more sneaky about their bad behavior.

    Glad to see Lambie is as handsome as ever! The cats aren’t bad, they are characters with personality! You amaze me with your knitting prowess, you are bold and brave and daring. Most people would knit for years before attempting the things you do. I can’t wait for the Positively Purple sweater. Bravo !!!!
