Crafty Andy Irish Scarf KAL


Thanks for accepting me in the Knit Along. I have started with the Hat, and I am making another one as this one is for someone else. I want mine pretty long. I will start the Scarf In the 2nd Week of August . Here is a picture of the hat I finished today. It needs to be Blocked and terminated, but I was so excited I wanted to share the picture. It actually took me 3 days to finish this project.

My First Irish Hiking Scarf...


but plans for many more!

I'm using KnitPicks Wool of the Andes (worsted weight) in color Lake Ice Heather for this first one and so far, I like the yarn/pattern combination. This is working up as a birthday gift with matching fingerless gloves in the same color!


I'm currently in a startitis mode and trying to put 'firsts' on my needles (I just finished my first shawl!). This is my first attempt at cables and am really enjoying knitting along on this scarf.

Hopefully I'll be back before too long to post a finished shot...in the meantime, I love seeing all these scarves and what yarn/colors others are using!

FO: First Irish Hiking Scarf

Here's my first IHS! It was so much fun, and completed in one week. It's rather long, but you can't tell that by the short stature of my model (Cricket) ;o) More pics on my blog. I used Caron Simply Soft in Teal.

My Name Not On List

I joined this KA a couple of weeks ago, I am not getting emails of new posts, nor do I see my name on the list. Is this the problem??????

My first IHS is going SOOOOO fast! I can't wait to finish and post a pic.

Here's a cute cartoon from this week's Pickles :o)
