Finally went out into public for the first time since before Christmas yesterday. Michael's was one of our stops...
Mom got me the 2008 Knitting Pattern a Day calendar for Christmas. In there, we noticed two patterns for head kerchiefs. My mom has worn these since forever and she was excited to find some I could knit. So yesterday we bought the yarn to make two kerchiefs for her. I finished the first one in about 24 hours (not non-stop knitting) and it looks great and mom looks cute in it.
The pattern calls for Caron Simply Soft and that is what we bought. I think it looks really good. You can also find the pattern here. Here is the kerchief alone:
Here is mom modeling the kerchief:
Now I am working on the Gryffindor scarf and some of the squares for the fire victims. We bought some variagated yarn to make mom another kerchief. I would like to get it done before she leaves.
At least I am no longer too sick to knit!
