my pals scarf

I had fun with this scarf, it is made in a simple drop stitch pattern but I liked the way it turned out.I used baby alpaca in black and opal colorway 17 and a brown shimmer I hope she likes it, I made it a little long so she could wrap it!!

my ksks kit is here!!

I am about 2 weeks late in posting this, Kathy from http://www.kaffeinatedknits.com/ was my pal and she totally spoiled me. Thank you Kathy I love everything First there was the Vera Wang bag



which I totally love !! and there was little cards she had made that had web info for me to go to which I totally love, there were the needles and the smaller purple bag for my notions and the darning needle holder which I adore because I always stick them in the curtains and then cant find them so now they are tucked safely away then there was the eucalan to wash my new socks in when I get them done.



oh yeah the sock yarn came from http://www.scoutj.com/ " Rosalie"



I love this yarn,I have the first sock done




I am making the basketweave socks and have learned alot from this pair of socks, this heel flap has the eye of partridge or staggered stitch



and it also has an instep pattern I was not familiar with this until now. Oh and she sent a kit for my tootsies so they can look good even if I don't have socks on again Kathy thank you very much. I have the second sock on the needles and hope to have them finished by next weekend of course my phone camera does not do any of this any justice but thought I would share anyway. have a great day
