International Scarf Exchange mailed
My first attempt. I thought I'd like a lengthwise scarf with some silky ribbon yarn.
Decided on this diamond pattern. Here she is all boxed up. I included a mini scarf for my pal's soon to be daughter.
Deborah, Your thank you note and my notes on blogs are on the way. I just wanted to thank you some more for the GORGEOUS scarf. I cn't tell you how much I love it. The packaging was very impressive too! I must say that I was so moved that you included a little pint-sized scarf for my little girl (if she ever arrives!). You're sweet and an incredible knitter. This project has been a little crazy for me - the timing has been hard. I'm still only 2/3 finished. Maybe today's snowy day will motivate me to sit and knit for a while.
and BTW - the feta in Greece is smoother and creamier - yummy!
I was going to update my blog today and blogger is down for a while for maintenance - maybe someday!
Deborah,
ReplyDeletewhat a gorgeous scarf! the colours are almost edible. You gifted it nicely too.
Barbara, that's cascade 220, double stranded.
