Description

My most recently completed knitting project (yes, I'm submitting them in reverse order.

This is made using Jo-Ann Sensations Angel Hair yarn in Berry and Turquoise, with size 11 needles. I'd been wanting to try this yarn for a while, because it's soft and fuzzy, although I also found it somewhat slippery when tying knots. This was really more of an experiment to see if the pattern would work, as well as a chance to try the yarn, so the fact that the two colors clash horribly except in bright light didn't bother me.

The zigzag pattern is one I made up myself, though I'm sure you can find the same pattern in tons of knitting books. It's pretty simple: 18 stitches a row, 6 rows for each stripe. On each row: cast on 1, knit 2, k2tog, knit 2, cast on 1, knit 2, k2tog, knit 2, cast on 1, knit 2, k2tog, knit 2.

I plan to use a variation on this pattern for a different scarf in the future, which is why I wanted to try it out now. The way I go at these knitting projects, though, it could be a year before it's done, because I always manage to have at least three projects going at a time, and I'm working on a big one right now. In the meantime, I will be posting two more finished projects momentarily!

Oh this is so pretty! Although I wouldn't think of these two colors being together I think they look good!
