So i had a couple of slip ups this summer. I went to Webs for the first time. How could I not spend money at Webs. I bought some yarn that I plan to use to make Victoria I also could not resist splitting a bag from farmhouse yarns In general I have been very good.

A few weeks ago, I stumbled across a phenomenal pattern for a knit scarf that would be perfect for some stash-busting (as scarfs are wont to be). I believe it was on a personal blog. I'm dying to make it, but I can't find it! I'm hoping that my vague description will trigger something in someone's memory. Here's what I remember ( Read more... )

Sorry folks, I haven't posted in a long time. I haven't been knitting that much, but I haven't bought any yarn either.
Here's what I've been working on:
