I grabbed some yarn that was intended, I'm sure, to be a fabulous little sweater at some point in time... and decided it'd be just as fabulous as a scrumptious, squishy scarf. I found a pattern from knitty that I'd adored before: the Lace Ribbon scarf, picked up some needles, and threw it all in a little bag, just in case.
Lucky me, I did manage a little downtime to get to work on the scarf this weekend while enjoying the sunshine and the cooler temperatures. Minus a couple of dropped yarn-overs, it all came back rather quickly and naturally, like I hadn't abandoned my knitting addiction to become a sewing addict. Of course, I'm a little rusty, so I can't knit yet as speedily as I once did, but I'm having fun. One of the things I'd always loved about knitting is that it's portable. Just slip your project in a bag and it goes where you go... in the car, to the lake, or just to the couch while dh is watching
Not too shabby, considering I haven't really done much knitting in quite a while. I was even going to start working on the scarf a little more while the girls rested this afternoon... until I discovered this.
Doh.
At least I saved the yarn over, right?!
Now, off to find some super glue and deal with one particular Big Sis who thinks I don't know she's been out of bed instead of resting...
I feel for you, Rhonda;) It happens to me all the time as one tv lady says. Did you save your project?
