Textures Mixed by Kim Klassen & Coffee Creak by Nancy Clayes |
Only a few rows and my woolen tube scarf is ready ... This knitwork has been lying in the bottom of my yarn basket since April, so I picked it up again this weekend.
Mornings are getting cold - a cotton scarf is not warm enough anymore. I look forward of wearing this tube scarf: The deep blue yarn is a blend of wool and silk, and the light yarn is mohair... making the scarf both soft and airy.
I knitted two of these as Christmas presents last winter, they're easy and rather fast to knit. Maybe an inspiration for you to a homemade present?
Water for tea is boiling, and my knitwork is waiting...
Until next time,
Nina

The color is beautiful and I admire people who can do this. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful image, it looks as soft as the yarn. I love the colors of yarn you are using - this is going to be a beautiful scarf.
ReplyDeleteThat yarn will make a beautiful scarf! Wonderful photo!!
ReplyDeleteTekisi mieli myös neuloa jotain huivia tai vaikkapa panta! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely soft blue, Nina - it's cold enough for a warm scarf here, too.
ReplyDeleteThis yarn is gorgeous and I so wish I could knit!
ReplyDeleteI haven't picked up any knitting since last winter -- I love that color.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful yarn.
ReplyDeleteYour picture could easily be in a magazine - beautiful scarf and nicely composed picture.
ReplyDeleteKaunista ja pehmeää! En muuten oikein osaa käyttää mohairia yksinään ja yhdistän sen usein jonkun muun langan kanssa.
ReplyDeleteThat is one of my favorite colors - it's beautiful! How lucky you are that you know how to knit. I tried to learn once and was very confused...lol.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so cozy, I love the color. I wish I knew how to knit or crochet, my step-daughter is really good at it and has made scarves, she is currently working on a blanket!
ReplyDeleteoooooo what pretty yarn. looks cozy, I'll bet it will feel great.
ReplyDeleteHi Nina! That color is beautiful. Good choice! It will look great on you. You are so fortunate to be able to make such nice things. I am a total klutz at stuff like that.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your tea, I'll enjoy my coffee :)

this is such a lovely color. I don't knitt...have tried in the past...but I do crochet, and I think I will be doing some of that today.
ReplyDeleteI love this shot... and that combination of yarns looks amazing to work with and makes me itch to start a new project myself. so lovely!
ReplyDeleteNina, I love this color and the yarn looks yummy.....I am need to get back on my knitting projects....
ReplyDeleteI haven't knitted anything for years and, especially at this time of year, when I see balls of soft and cozy looking wool, I am tempted to start again but, as my husband points out, I already struggle to find the time for my photography as and paper crafting and jewelry making so, probably better not start another project. Still I can admire the lovely colour and wooly texture you have captured in this photo.
