juldea: (knitting)

I finished the quick knitting project I started last week - the hair scarf/kerchief thing made out of the really expensive Koigu merino.

This is it laid out on the ironing board to dry after I blocked it ("block" = knitting term for shaping it with damp and heat.) I'll get a picture of me wearing it up soon, I promise!



Now, back to the really lengthy difficult projects!

Thanks! I even have some of the yarn left over, and [livejournal.com profile] tpau sold me the leftovers she has of the same brand, in other shades, so now I have to figure out what to do with all of it!

The shades she has were used in this (http://pics.livejournal.com/tpau/pic/00002w1x/g2)... I definitely don't have enough to make one of those, plus I'm not a shawl person. I'll have to figure out what to do with this amount of varigated-color thin yarn. There's not enough for socks... *ponder*

Phew, it's not just me...

Also, the song is titled "Three Point One Four." Didn't they teach you kids in school not to use extra digits of precision when you weren't confident about them?

The only thing I'm confident about right now is HOW MUCH I HATE YOU. ;)

Pretty! One of these days I really ought to make a shawl out of the Koigu in my stash...I bought it ages ago for socks but I decided the yarn didn't want to be socks. First I have to finish my seventeen WIPs and start the lace shawl that I've been itching to work on since I finished the burgandy lace shawl. Which I really ought to block one of these days...

(Pardon me while I babble about knitting. I think it's past my bedtime...)

Sure - but I'll warn you, the yarn I used was $11 per skein, so we're looking at a fairly expensive hair tie!
