Latest addition...


So I had a lot of Caron Deep Plum Heather yarn ( 4 skeins to be exact) and just started knitting up a particular pattern I came across and liked a lot. It turned out to be a 70 inch scarf. Took me three weeks to finish (I didn't work on it everyday, though). So, anyway. Here is the finished product. Any opinions?

New Installation...




Here is my newest hand knit creation. I made it with a whole skein of 100% Merino wool yarn my fiance bought me for Christmas. I love the yarn it's so soft. Expensive but soooooo worth it. If you have very sensitive skin like I do, Merino Wool is the way to go people! Please comment. And yes, it is on etsy.
