Teal

Finished the teal scarf for our neighbor lady who shared a pie with us. Used a quick-to-work shell design.



Also made a small "infinity" scarf for myself from the leftover yarn.

A Quick Gift

Girl gets skein of yarn at employee Christmas party. Neighbor lady brings over delicious cherry pie for family. Girl decides to use yarn to make nice neighbor lady a pretty scarf to go back with the clean pie plate. This is a quick-to-work-up pattern. Using Caron yarn in "Pagoda." (Yarn is more of a dark teal color - this photo looks more blue.)

Drop Stitch Runner

A week ago, I made a table runner/scarf using a drop-stitch pattern. The color combination was a happy accident, and I really like it. Mom had a big one like this with multiple colors, that she had on top of a cedar chest. I wish I'd kept it, I think I didn't for some reason. :( So now I'm making stuff with this pattern to make up for that. Call me sentimental, if nothing else.
