I know I said I wouldn’t but…


I made another blanket.  I wound some ribbon through it because I wanted to add some color but I think it came out as quite a fancy baby blanket.

On a roll with Secret Path Shawls/Scarves


I really love this pattern, I can do the entire thing without even looking at the pattern I’ve done it so much.  And way WAY easier than Lost in Time.  I’d rather purchase that from someone else, no joke.

Secret Path Shawl/Scarf


Originally I had tried the Lost in Time Shawl but made myself absolutely crazy trying it 3 times and found it just too hard.  So I tried the Secret Paths shawl and I am in LOVE.

 

 

I found the pattern to be easier and for me, worked up quite quickly!  I did this one with 2 skeins of Yarn Bee Sugarwheel Cotton in nutmeg nibbles.  Holy beans this yarn is amazing!  I first made a waffle scarf and then frogged it.  Then i started to make the lost in time and frogged it.  And this  yarn held up LIKE A CHAMP.  It’s so soft like Caron Simply Soft but not splitty at all. It’s like twice as much as the Caron but man, this might be my new favorite yarn.
