It doesn't get much easier

I started and almost finished my Berroco Lacey scarf. It is very easy to do. You don't need to know anything about knitting to make the scarf. There are instructions on Berroco's website for using either knitting needles or a crochet hook.

We have all the colours in stock...

It isn't on the website yet but I will try and get it up early next week.

Here is another design from Anne Hanson

I am knitting a Knitspot pattern, Tudor Grace, in tosh pashmina but ran into a small problem. I lost the pattern. It came in the box so I can get it finished. Now that I am writing this I think I am going to pull the scarf out tonight.
