first, chloe and karen modeling the scarves i gave them:
right now i'm in florida, but before i left i dyed the lovely mohair yarn chloe gave me. its purple and blue and the three skeins don't match exactly because i dyed it by putting a skein halfway in a cup of dye and putting it in the microwave. i started to make a lace shawl out of it but i was only increasing 2 sts every other row so it was making a weird diamond shape and the pattern was too complicated for the colors. so i ripped it out and i'm going to make one like chloe's blue and white alpaca cloud shawl.
i also finished one embossed leaves sock but i left my camera cord at school so i have to wait until i get back to bklyn to upload using more clever/annoying methods. chloe i promise i'm not trying to copy all your projects, you just have such great knitting.
