Finished Blue & Purple Scarf<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

While I just posted about a scarf I had finished<\/a>, I am posting about another one. I have a very strict policy about not stockpiling yarn. I buy 2 skeins at a time, I make a scarf, then I buy two more. I finished this scarf last week and finished the Bamboo Scarf about a month before that. I like to knit on planes and I had a lot of flights in April, May and June.<\/p>\n

Finished Blue & Purple Scarf-detail<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I bought the yarn for this scarf in Monterey at Monarch Knitting<\/a> on a break from the Grand parlor crazy.I like the way the scarf came out, but I wasn’t crazy about the yarn. It had some acrylic in it and I didn’t like the way it stretched while I knitted it. It wasn’t springy just stretchy. It made larger spaces between the stitches. This isn’t a bad thing; I just don’t like it.<\/p>\n

One thing I learned was to play around with the needle size. On my newest project I used a larger sized needle to cast on and then I switched to a smaller sized needle to do the knitting. We’ll see how it turns out.<\/p>\n

One of the YM’s friends really liked the colors, so I made the scarf for him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
