My First Scarf


Today I finally finished my first scarf.  It felt so nice to finally complete a project.  I've spent a lot of time lately starting things that I haven't finished.  That's a bad trait of mine that I'm hoping to correct.


It was a beautiful sunny day here and I spent most of it in my sunroom.  The melting snow almost sounded like rain on the roof.


I crocheted a little edging onto my knitted scarf.  Just the garter stitch but I'm starting to feel a little confident.  I may just be able to become a knitter after all.


I also found time between stitches to make some banana bread  (recipe here) and stop for a tea break.


I must get over to Shawna's this week and give this scarf to my great-niece, little Miss Hannah before all the snow goes away.

  2. Well done on the scarf, bet you will be making another soon. That is such a pretty teacup with yummy banana bread.
