I've been trying to plug away on my dad's scarf! This is his father's day scarf from June, so I figure I should finish this before Christmas?! I absolutely love it, but I'm distracted by socks and such. I'm about 1/3 of the way through this.
Its a fairly easy cable pattern (more details on that in the future, I modified a stitch pattern and love it). Maybe by posting this here it'll give me a bit more motivation to get this finished. And look at that pretty sunlight in the background. It was a lovely day today, but I didn't realize it until about 4pm. I had a horrible migraine today and was in bed most of the day. But at least I was home when the sun was out to take some pictures :)
I sure do like stash diving! I've been going through my stash to see what a I really need, what I have too much of, and doing a bit of destashing. I couldn't part with this pretty yarn that I purchased last year on our trip to Boston. Its Green Mountain Spinnery Mountain Mohair. I LOVE IT!! Oh, a sweater out of this would be heavenly!
And this isn't a WIP anymore! Lookie!
