No idle hands here ....!

Back in December 2019, I started a new knitting project ... Le Massif Scarf by Diane Walla


It was a kit I bought at a local yarn shop in Montreal ... Espace Tricot. I just loved the colours so much that I couldn't resist purchasing the kit! You know how that goes?! lol

I have finally finished it to the desired length. Well, finish is relative ... I still need to block it ... but I'm much too excited to wait until I blocked it to share it with you.

Voila!


I just love how it turned out. The yarn I used is Kelbourne Woolen - Scout ... It's 100% wool from Peru. It is so soft ... and molds my neck oh so nicely.

Of course, I need mittens for this lovely scarf.


I've never knitted mittens, so this is all so new to me; a learning process. The yarn I used for the mittens is by Rauma Ullvarefabrikk - Rauma Garn - Finull PT2 - 100% wool from Norway ... also soft to the touch.

I'm really enjoying getting back into knitting ... something I was into in my early 20's. So much as changed ... like 4" double pointed needles! Great for knitting the thumb! lol

What have you been up to? Hope you are enjoying your creative endeavors!

Thanks for stopping by my little corner in cyberspace.

That scarf is gorgeous, so much work in the pattern and the matching mittens are perfect.
I actually made a sweater once, lol. It was for my son when he was little, it had alphabets and designs that I stitched into it, after I made it. I have no patience now and an old knitting machine that is sitting in the basement, getting rusty. I never got the hang of it, so never used it.
