Yarn Along

I finished my Gallatin Scarf.
To say I am happy with the way it turned out would be a huge understatement.
I am over the moon excited as 
this is the first "difficult" project that I started and completed on my own.


The lace lines up perfectly in 97 percent of the scarf...


it hangs - drapes beautifully...


and I really love the way it looks.
It's cool and lightweight and a beautiful accessory to any of my many white shirts.

I am still working on my fourth baby blanket.
I am making these blankets to save and store, so when I need one, one will be available.
I only finished 4 color blocks this week.
I try to do one per night, that is 10 rows a night which is quite do-able for me.

That's it - it was an exciting knitting week!

That scarf is a work of art! It really does drape beautifully!
I have several denim quilts I need to make and when I’m done, I should make a few extra to have ready!
You do such good work!

It's exquisite Debbie. I can see how perfectly it sits around your neck, it will stay put and not slip. It does complement your white shirt. That's a beautiful portrait of you too :D) xx
The baby blanket is so lovely and the pattern is very pretty.
Your art of knitting art is wonderful and must be so satisfying.

Your Gallatin Scarf is lovely. I am so happy you modeled the Scarf; you look beautiful in it. It looks hard to do and I you are becoming an expert knitter. I also love your baby blanket, especially the colors. I think it is smart to make them ahead.
Loved the photo! Blessings and hugs~

If I would come to this city again, I would be all over the venues in NYC. We ordered Spinach artichoke dip at the server's suggestion and it was absolutely delicious.
