Fun with fur

Fuzzy scarf 

Hello dear readers, here is a picture, a not so good picture of the scarf that I made for my sister. Her birthday is tomorrow. It is made with fancy fur from Lion Brand. The color is stormy sea. Very pretty.

So, I bought a magazine yesterday. The new Knit It put out by Better Homes and Gardens. (You just know I have one of those "Better" homes, don't you?) I have to say there are several projects that I want to make and some cool ideas to make up something of my own. So needless to say I am very happy with my purchase. Usually the projects use some kind of very expensive yarn not easily gotten, but they had some sweaters made with yarn I actually knew without having to look in a catalog. Amazing. Maybe I will get a subscription. But who knows I already have more magazines than I can possibly use. I think it is time for some January cleaning. Why wait until Spring? The weather here today is a sunny 73 F so why not.

Well, now what to do for my next project. I am in mid knit on a hat. I have yarn to make a vest. And I have yarn to knit some preemie hats to donate for little babies cuz hospitals need them. So. Where to start. Perhaps I will finish my hat. Then start the vest. If I get bored with that, then I can start a preemie hat. The hat should be able to break up the huge task of the vest. Then when all those projects are done, I can add to my stash and make some more stuff. Yay!!!! Well until I post again.... Happy Knitting!! :)
