Catching up on all those knitted items that I haven’t yet shown off . . . this pretty little lacy number was a particularly happy finish! Scarves knit with fingering weight yarn, I suspect, DO tend to evoke happiness upon completion–not so much as they’re being knit, though. This one seemed like it took me a little bit longer then for-EVER, but once I bound off and slung it around my neck, it seemed so, so worth it. I could even imagine knitting the same scarf in the same yarn again.

This lovely is, of course, the Lace Ribbon Scarf, knit using Chasing Rainbows Dyeworks merino/tencel sock yarn, a yarn I would definitely recommend. All in all, I’d chalk this project up to success!

And thank goodness for finished scarves, since it is already FREEZING here in Philadelphia–um . . . can someone please, please tell me me which crack Fall slipped into when I wasn’t looking? Winter is already here, friends. Stay warm!

Hello, all! I’ve been meaning to post a little blurb about some new 100% philistine made products that I’ve recently added to the shop . . . just for all you knitters! Somehow, time has really gotten away from me . . . so how delighted I was to see my products for knitters featured in the new Indie Spotlight section of the winter edition of knotions! I’m absolutely thrilled to be featured in knotions + many great big thank yous to Jodi for including me. And speaking of knotions, have you seen the newest patterns being served up? The winter edition is choc full of some incredible winter accessories that I want to make nownownow, including my personal faves, the Magic Mirror Mittens, the Lakeside Knee Highs, the Isotope Hat, and of course Kelly’s Hanging Vines Socks. I am itching to cast on ALL of them immediatelyNOW! So, after you’ve checked out all of the great new patterns in knotions, come back here and check out all of my fun + happy new fold-over knitting project pouches + notions pouches . . . for those who are like me and have eleventy million projects going simultaneously, there is no such thing as owning too many project pouches!

Speaking of eleventy million projects, startitis has hit me particularly hard recently, so I should have lots of new knits to show off very soon!

Happy Tuesday, all . . . stay warm!
