Thanks to Stacey's directions I am now the proud owner of 400 Knitting Stitches: Great Stitch Patterns.
My first project from this book is the lovely-looking Lily of the Valley pattern
which I produced in the Jo Sharp yarn 'Alpaca Lustre', an alpaca, kid mohair, merino mix. The colour? I can't decide. It's a sort of Sage-y, Avocado-y colour. General opinion at our ski lodge last week was that it would be super with white and denim.
For a couple of weeks I knat knat knat*, blocked and then...
Voila! a scarf for a young Tween in Melbourne. Will deliver to her parents on the weekend when I visit the Great Southern City and they can hide it until her birthday in September.

M may well stand for "Marvel." As in you are one.
How can you read those instructions? They dement me!!
A very pretty scarf. Jealous me of your visit to Mexico.
Nice work - it looks better than the photo in the book!
Beaoooodiful! Do you need a bag to keep your sewing in? (he he)
Ooooh — looks fabulous. Lucky teenager!
That is so divine. I am amazed at all you crafty type people. Amazed and jealous.
That's it. You are sooooo taking my 10cms of hottie cover back with you to finish off for me. You are a certified knitting machine.
Lovely stitch and nice colour!
Yummy, yummy, yummy.
Love the actual colour as revealed in the last pic. Cos those chartreuse-looking shots didn't do it for me.
knitting, I meant knitting. Sorry.
It looks beautiful. I'm pleased to see your book has been put to good use as mine has barely been opened.
*sigh*
