Project Log 9

PROJECT NAME: Lacy Shell Scarf
YARN: 100% Rayon Lavender
HOOK SIZE: E ? It doesn't have letter, it's smaller than an F
MADE IN Sep 2008
GENERAL NOTES: I got this yarn at the Knit and Crochet show in Portland and thought it would make a lovely scarf for_________ so I bought it. I may even have enough for another scarf!

I kind of knew the look I wantedfor the scarf, so I did a search for Lacy Shell Crochet Pattern and came up with this site http://crochet.about.com/library/weekly/aa031106.htm. I liked the look of that and tried it but couldn't get it to come out right, so I ended up putting 3 double crochets between the shells.

PROJECT NAME: Knit scarf

YARN: Premier Yarns Bouncy 100% Polyamide
NEEDLE SIZE: 14?
PATTERN: Garter Stitch 14 stitches across

MADE IN Sep 2008
GENERAL NOTES: Okay I got this yarn at Big Lots for $1 a skein. It is super super soft (like baby kittens) I've knitted 1 skein so I think there will be enough yarn (I only have 2 skeins). I used really big needles because it's fairly big yarn AND when I used small needles (see Project # ___ )it took forever...of course that was also much smaller yarn.

PROJECT NAME: Knit what I damn well want to scarf.
YARN: TLC Eden Green
NEEDLE SIZE: 10.5
MADE IN Sep 2008
GENERAL NOTES: I bought these lovely wooden needles at the Knit and Crochet Show in Portland . They are 10.5 and not very long, but just right. They feel very nice. I couldn't wait to use them so I broke out the free skein of yarn I got at the show for the Coats and Clarks Ladie who were teaching knitting and crochet and just started going, first I did a bit of a basket weave, then some stockinette stitch and making shapes out of it, some ribbing... maybe I should see if I remember how to do a cable.
