This One's For You, Son!

Actually the scarf is for my son's fiance. A few weeks ago my son purchased this book, Speed Knitting, for me. This was around the time his fiance asked me to knit a scarf for her. So I thought I would honor my son by knitting one of the projects from this book, classic skinny scarf, for his fiance. The patterns in this book are easy and great for whipping up quick gifts.

I used three hanks of Blue Sky Bulky on size 17 needles. Although the yarn does shed, 50% Alpaca/50 %Wool, I absolutely love it's thickness and warmth.



Another sweater completed with the help of my Korean friends. After completing two sweaters and a handbag, there doesn't seem to be too much of a language barrier. However, most of the patterns are written in chart form, similar to the Japanese charted patterns. I now find Korean charted patterns much easier to follow compared to the written patterns.
