Recent Outings, Baby Surprise Jacket (June 26, 2010)
Arlo has gone on some fun neighborhood adventures this week. He went to his first farmers' market on Wednesday (the People's Co-op summer street party, no less!). The same night, he went out to dinner...
Changing Pad Covers and Weekly Checkup (May 25, 2010)
With that pesky cloth wipe project finished, I had time to sew two changing pad covers yesterday. I followed this basic approach, but I modified the dimensions and added some shaping to accommodate th...
Week 37 Recap, Part 2 (May 24, 2010)
Thirty-eight (and a half) weeks! Sorry to keep you in suspense by being quiet for so long. The baby is still in the belly, though he did drop last night when I was getting ready for bed. I felt some b...
Week 36 Recap (May 14, 2010)
Thirty-seven weeks! The baby is at term now, so he should be able to function just fine whenever he's born. It's reassuring to have gotten to this point. It also suddenly feels like the baby might arr...
Week 35 Recap (May 7, 2010)
Thirty-six weeks! I'm in my ninth month of pregnancy now, and strangers are not shy about commenting on how pregnant I am (which I have no problem with--I think it's kind of cool!). Surprisingly, I ha...
Burp Cloths and Hooded Towels (April 25, 2010)
We are now well stocked with burp cloths and hooded towels. I know it's not necessary to have nicely bound burp cloths, but I think they'll make me look forward to cleaning up baby spit-up a little mo...
Week 33 Recap (April 24, 2010)
Thirty-four weeks! We are definitely shifting into baby panic mode at this point, working hard to get everything ready before he shows up. We're making progress, which is satisfying.
Regard...
Baby Shower (April 20, 2010)
We had a great weekend! Tree came up for a visit, and we lucked out and had really beautiful weather. On Saturday, we walked up to Jam for breakfast, then walked down Hawthorne, stopping at Cool Cotto...
Fabric Headbands (April 11, 2010)
A while back, I bought a cute fabric headband at Union Rose (you can see it here and here). I love it, because it keeps my hair out of my face but doesn't give me a headache like normal headbands. Tod...
Week 31 Recap (April 9, 2010)
Thirty-two weeks! This marks the start of the eighth month--whoa! If I think in terms of months, two months still sounds like a decent amount of time to get ready, but 8 weeks, not so much. Babies are...
Week 25 Recap (February 26, 2010)
Twenty-six weeks! Assuming all is going according to plan in there, the baby weighs about 2 pounds, and he can open his eyes. Good job, baby!
Hypnobirthing classes continue to go well. We've be...
Week 24 Recap (February 21, 2010)
Twenty-five weeks! Okay, twenty-five and a half--we've been having so much fun this weekend enjoying the beautiful early spring weather in Portland that this post got a little delayed. I'd forgotten h...
Week 21 Recap (January 29, 2010)
Week 22! All is well.
The baby book says the baby can hear at this point, and to celebrate, we took him to a Builders and the Butchers show at The Woods. Okay, so the timing was just a coinci...
Week 20 Recap (January 22, 2010)
Twenty-one weeks--the baby is allegedly as long as a (large) banana. That seems about right. His kicks are getting stronger, which is exciting! We can count on him to put on a little kicking show righ...
Christmas Crafting and Recent Baking (January 1, 2010)
We kept our Christmas gifts pretty low-key this year. We took advantage of our cabinet full of jams from this summer and gave those as presents, along with felt trivets. The trivets, based on directio...
Ice Cream Earmuffs! (November 28, 2009)
I love Lee's new ice cream earmuffs/headband pattern and kits! The design is great, and it's even better that she hand-dyed recycled wool to make the different flavors. We got to see them in person wh...
Ladies Rock Camp (November 21, 2009)
So, Ladies Rock Camp! This was a fundraiser for Portland's Rock and Roll Camp for Girls. It's a 2.5-day-long camp, where women who have little to no experience with an instrument learn to play that in...
Kitty Hijinks (November 21, 2009)
I recently started crocheting a ripple blanket, based on Alicia's blanket. I wanted to take a few pictures to post to Ravelry, but for some reason Patches could not resist the yarn! Normally she's not...
Green Tomatoes, Muffins, Knitting, Cyclocross (November 20, 2009)
Hoo boy, I've been quiet for too long! Here are a bunch of things I meant to mention at the time but never got around to writing about. Still to come: Ladies Rock Camp and our recent trip to Canada!
...
Porch Work, Portland Marathon, and Saturday in Sellwood (October 6, 2009)
I feel like it has been forever since I've updated, but I guess it hasn't been that long. I just haven't done much of note in the past few weeks. The weather turned cold suddenly last week, and I just...
MusicFest NW 2009 (September 25, 2009)
So, MusicFest NW went well. I didn't even get sick this year! I think the secret was only staying up past midnight on one night instead of four nights in a row (I don't know how I did that last year!)...
Weekend Plans and Recent Life Update (September 17, 2009)
Some recent tidbits:
Shangri-La, the new Indian place at SE 26th and Clinton appears to have closed (already!). Bummer--we never got to try their full menu! They've scraped the paint off the wind...
Sunset Pink Scarflet (September 9, 2009)
When I was at Black Sheep, I bought a very large skein of pink handspun wool. My plan is to make some cold-weather accessories with it (not sure if I'd wear them all at the same time though; it might ...
Portland Pie-Off, Mail Slot Cozy (August 17, 2009)
Baking
We went to a fun barbecue at Susan's on Friday, in honor of Linda and Paul, who were in town for Linda's book signing. It was great meeting them! My contribution to the barbecue was a shiro ...
Garnet Swallowtail Shawl (July 16, 2009)
More knitting completed! A while ago, I bought a skein of laceweight yarn to make some crocheted edging for a dishtowel, but that project didn't work out, so I used the yarn to knit a Swallowtail Shaw...
$3 Shirred Pillowcase Top (July 7, 2009)
Hey look, I sewed something! It has been a while since that happened...
When I saw Betz White's shirred pillowcase top tutorial on the CRAFT blog, I knew I wanted to try making one for myself, ...
Diamond Pattern Skoodlet (June 8, 2009)
Hey, check it out--I made a skoodlet! Lee came up with this pattern for a combination hood and scarflet a few months ago and was kind enough to share it with me. It's a great way to add a little warmt...
Farmers' Market, Party Time! (May 14, 2009)
Last Saturday, Patrick and I met up at the PSU farmers' market for lunch (I was downtown for a haircut, and he'd just finished a bike ride in the West Hills). Normally I shy away from the PSU market b...
First Socks! (May 10, 2009)
Back in January, I decided I wanted to try knitting socks, so I bought some pretty Koigu KPPPM yarn and tiny knitting needles.
I started knitting the socks in March, using Wendy's Generic Toe-u...
Side Slip Cloche (May 3, 2009)
Back in November, I mentioned that I'd found two cloche patterns that I really liked, both in Laura Irwin's Boutique Knits. It took me a while, but I finally made one of the hats--the side slip cloche...
Laura Gibson, Handmade Nation, CRC Rally, Chickens (April 8, 2009)
Wonderfulness abounds lately! This past week we have done all sorts of great stuff (and are kind of exhausted, but in a good way):
On Thursday we went to Laura Gibson's record release/potluck with ...
Springtime Excitement (March 21, 2009)
Spring is here! Spring is here!
(That last one is from a house up the street from us. It makes me want to plant a star magnolia in our parking strip so we can enjoy it next spring!)
I'm ...
Button Cookies and Crafts, Spice Labels (March 16, 2009)
My second attempt at making button cookies worked better than my first. I used the glazed butter cookie recipe from Cook's Illustrated, and the dough was much easier to work with than the first dough ...
Leethal Hat and Scarf Set (March 5, 2009)
For those of you not on Ravelry but interested in my recent knitting projects (probably a pretty small group of people), here are two new items I've knitted while watching The Wire and Buffy on DVD. B...
Waffles and Coraline (February 14, 2009)
I had a nicely spontaneous day today. For lunch, I decided at the last minute to meet up with Susan, Pearl, Sarah, and Josh for waffles at the Little Blue Waffle Wagon. I was so glad to get to catch u...
Baby Hats and Mittens (February 8, 2009)
We're getting to the point in our lives where our friends are starting to have babies, which is very exciting! It also means more opportunities to make knitted baby items, which is nice, because they ...
Wul Comforter, Lincoln, Lemon Bars (December 13, 2008)
Since Portland is moving into winter, Patrick and I decided it was time to invest in a good comforter. We chose a Wul comforter, which I had read about in Sunset a few years ago. We also got a nice du...
Couch Pants, Decemberists, Ink and Peat (December 1, 2008)
What a good 4-day weekend! We managed to get a few things done around the house. We had been wanting to frost the lower panes of our downstairs bathroom window for a while, and I finally did it using ...
Cloches and Pickles (November 26, 2008)
I continue to be impressed by how awesome Portland is. I don't know--it just feels like you can do anything here, if you put your mind to it. Open a bakery, write a book, start a band, whatever! It's ...
Screenprinting, Pie, Harvestfest, Silver Falls (October 21, 2008)
Another good (and busy!) weekend in Portland. On Saturday, we went to the Screenprinting for Change party that I mentioned earlier, and we had a great time! I need to get more involved in the Portland...
Screenprinting for Obama (October 16, 2008)
After buying Lena Corwin's Printing By Hand, I've been wanting to give screenprinting a try. The Obama screenprinting event this weekend seems like a perfect opportunity to learn more about screenprin...
Draft Stoppers (October 5, 2008)
I didn't do the project I had originally planned for today (painting two rain barrels for our yard) because it was cold and drizzly, which didn't seem like ideal spray-painting weather. Instead, I unp...
Aqualung, Sugar Waffles, Crafty Plans (October 5, 2008)
Last Sunday, we stopped in at the Polish Festival and waited in long lines for pierogies and potato pancakes. And then I made Patrick go furniture shopping on Mississippi Ave., even though he probably...
Kozo Paper Quilt (April 1, 2007)
I bought some cute scraps from Kozo back in December. I wanted to be able to enjoy them every day, so I made a little paper quilt using small pieces of the paper. I cut 1.75 x 2.5-inch rectangles (a...
I put up a few pictures of our latest garden setup. Click the daisies!
As anticipated, the temperature has fallen below freezing at night for the past few days. The first night it happened, I...
Last week, I finished a little knitting project I'd been working on. My company participates in a giving tree program every year, and one of the cards I picked was for a 1-year-old girl who wanted a ...
Tons of Information About Our Wedding (October 24, 2005)
» Our professional wedding pictures
» A few other wedding pictures
This is a list of information about our wedding (vendors, etc). Hopefully it'll come in handy for future brides- and grooms-to...
Wedding Invitations (August 15, 2005)
With only 9 invitations to send out for our wedding, I made my own! Paper Source came to the rescue with its useful invitation ideas. I was able to buy the supplies in packages of 10 for the most par...
Guest Room Quilt (October 15, 2004)
This quilt will go in our guest room. I'm making it log cabin style, out of light and dark green cotton with a floral backing. I hope it looks good!
Example quilt block...
Yesterday, I made some paintings to hang in our bedroom, since we can't afford to buy art that other people have made. I think they turned out pretty well.
Today, Andrew and Tree visited, and ...
Seasonal Constellation Paintings (September 26, 2004)
Our bedroom walls were too white, so we needed some art to put on them. Inspired by this lithograph, I ended up painting a series of pictures of constellations based on images from this website. I use...
Jen (who is having her baby tomorrow!) got her secret present, so now I can tell everybody about it! This was the reason I made the Random Stripe Generator, although I'm sure it will come in handy fo...
iPod Holder (October 15, 2003)
When I first got my iPod, I kept it in a sock, but I decided it needed a more dignified home. Of course, this isn't that much classier than a sock, but it's something. I used leftover corduroy from ...
The iPod holder is done! It's kind of lumpy and a little too small, but I still like it. A step up from the sock I was using before.
There's a link to a few sketches I made for it, but they'r...
A few nights ago, I finally came to terms with the fact that I'd never finish my raglan with stripey sleeves, and I ripped it up. I just didn't like the colors together. Here it is, shortly before i...
Raglan Pullover with Variegated Sleeves (September 17, 2003)
A bright, exciting project to take me from winter into spring. I'm using a seamless raglan pattern from my cheapo Leisure Arts leaflet (#2996). I bought this beautiful, soft variegated superwash mer...
Okay, my secret project is finished! After reading about Tree's escapades in necklace making, I was inspired to try it myself (I'm such a copycat!). For my first project, I decided to try and make a...
Passion Necklace, Revisited (May 25, 2003)
This necklace was inspired by one I saw on the Super Hero Designs website. It was called Passion, but they no longer make it. So I decided to make my own. It was an easy first project using this te...
Oh boy! Pictures!
First, we have pictures of the present I gave Tree. I can tell you what it was, now that she's gotten it. Okay, so I made her a beaded purse out of this pretty pink silk. I ma...
Pink Silk Purse (May 5, 2003)
I made this purse as a bridal shower present for my friend, Tree. The exterior is pink dupioni silk (purchased from Winmil Fabrics in Boston), and the lining is champagne satin. It also has pretty p...
So my apartment gets kind of cold, what with it being so horribly wintery outside, and I don't like turning up the heat too much, since it dries out my skin. So I was thinking of fashioning some sort...
Our dorm fire alarm went off at 3:30am last night. Apparently, some drunk jackasses discharged a fire extinguisher on the 7th floor just for fun. At least it wasn't too cold outside, but it still wa...
This morning, I woke up, realized I had the beginnings of a cold, looked out the window, and saw snow and gloominess.
So instead of slogging through the snow to sit in my office and read journa...
So instead of doing homework, I just finished ordering yarn to make my Raglan Pullover with Stripy Sleeves. I ordered the variegated yarn off of Ebay (Tulips Superwash Merino from Over the Rainbo...
I like my new hat! I wore it today, and it kept my ears nice and warm, and nobody even laughed at me for wearing it. It's a keeper...
I had a good day today. It was relatively warm out, and ther...
The hat is all done (I don't have an iron any more so I skipped the blocking steps, yielding a ruffly brim). Click it to see a picture of me trying to look fashionable. It's too silly for me to ...
So I happened to turn on the TV today (what a shock!), and our local public TV station was having a pledge drive. They had a local chef on, and apparently, earlier today, they had Joanne Chang, the o...
Fuzzy Black Bucket-o-Chic Hat (February 2, 2003)
This hat used Bonne Marie's bucket-o-chic pattern. I liked the white fuzzy version she made, so I chose to use some of that Pomegranate Unger Utopia from my failed Angell St. sweater plus some black ...
Today I worked on the journal article for my undergrad advisor (deadline is Monday, which is good, since classes start Tuesday). Then I watched Amelie and had a good cry. It's a beautiful movie. I ...
Goofy Earflap Hat (January 15, 2003)
This is a goofy hat I made as a followup to my random stripe scarf. It is based on the earflap hat pattern in Rebecca 19. My gauge was too small, so I lined it with black cuddle fur, and now it'll f...
Random Stripe Scarf (January 15, 2003)
I used a bunch of acrylic yarn odds and ends that I found in my mom's basement to make this scarf. I lined it with black faux fur since acrylic isn't very soft. The scarf used random colors and stri...
I won't keep you in suspense any longer. I ended up lining the hat after all, since I had my sewing machine out. Unfortunately, it won't fit anyone with a normal-sized head. Maybe a toddler could w...
My cuddle fur arrived today and proceeded to shed black fuzz all over my carpet. Oh well. I'm in the process of lining my scarf right now. Pictures will have to wait until tomorrow though, because ...
First day back at research, and I'm trying to be a good worker. Despite this, I went to the mall while my 3-hour polymer synthesis was proceeding and bought the coat (in black--I figure it's more pra...
Patrick's on his way back to California right now. Vacation's all over. But I don't start classes right away. MIT has something called IAP (Independent Activities Period), which lasts all January. ...
I'm back in Cambridge, safe and sound. My flight got in after the T stopped running last night, so I took a cab home. I hate to take cabs because they're so expensive, but it sure was nice not to ha...
Yellow Baby Blanket (December 27, 2002)
I made this blanket in early 2001 from yellow Jiffy baby yarn using this pattern, as a present for one of my chemistry professors who was a little nervous about being a father. Too bad I didn't get a ...
Two Stripy Sweaters (December 27, 2002)
These were the first sweaters I ever made. I knit them both while on vacation in Capitola, CA, in 1996. The darker-colored one is super baggy, but the pastel-colored sweater is wearable. I finally ...
Pink Cabled Hat (December 27, 2002)
Documenting old craft projects:
I made this hat for myself out of some pink Wool-ease (I think) based on a pattern I found in one of my mom's old knitting pamphlets, during Christmas break in 2000....
Marble Magnets (December 26, 2002)
This Christmas, I jumped on the bandwagon and made marble magnets for both of my parents. Not Martha has good instructions here. I got all of my supplies at Stampola, which had great prices and cust...
Bead Necklaces (December 26, 2002)
I made simple beaded necklaces for my sister, Lianna, and Patrick's sister, Meg, for Christmas. All the supplies were at my local craft store, and I used the Double Diamond Stitch from Robyn's Bead P...
Merry Christmas! I had a very nice Christmas. My dad and Vicki came over (I'm staying with my mom and Alan, but Dad and Vicki live only 15 minutes away), and we all had our traditional Christmas bru...
Oh wow! People are actually using my knitting needle case pattern (Orangemami and Beth are the two I know of, plus Tree, of course). I feel special :) I should add a note to the pattern that says r...
I finished Patrick's hat, and it's actually nice. No glaring flaws, and I think he'll wear it and like it. Hooray! Patrick gets to try it out this weekend when he visits!
This hat worked...
Well, the Boston Hostel Shell is not wearable. All of its flaws are fixable, but I don't feel like dealing with them right now. Maybe in the spring. See post below for more info....
Boston Hostel Shell (October 26, 2002)
This was supposed to be my project while I was living in hostels in Boston and waiting for my apartment to open up. I didn't finish it before starting MIT, so it took longer than expected. I didn't u...
As all of you crafty people assuredly know, Knitty is up and running. How exciting! I want to make the Rock Star scarf in the worst way, but since I'm still inching along on the Boston Hostel Shell,...
I saw a girl around my age knitting on the subway today. People like Bonne Marie talk about doing this, but this is the first time I'd seen it. I wouldn't want to do it because I like to concentrate...
I finished the first of four parts of my Boston Hostel Shell! I bet you thought I'd never mention knitting again...I'm not getting much knitting done because it's pretty hot, and there are so many ot...
Well, I just finished my last sewing project for a while. This is the ruffle-front shirt I mentioned in the last entry. You may remember that I wanted to buy a shirt like this, but I could find anyt...
White Ruffle-Front Shirt (July 22, 2002)
I decided I wanted a ruffle-front shirt, but the only ones I could find were either really poorly made or very expensive (like this one). So I decided to make one for myself. I used New Look 6952 for...
I've been trying to finish up some of my projects before moving, and today I finished my corduroy pants. I like them, though they don't look professional (the ribbon I used for the drawstring doesn't...
Khaki Corduroy Pants (July 21, 2002)
I bought the pattern (New Look 6119) for these pants in May, and found some nice wide-wale khaki corduroy at JoAnn in July. The cool thing about these pants is that they have flared legs with folded d...
Amelie was great...it made me cry (happy tears). It also made me want to collect discarded pictures from photo booths and work at an upscale French porn shop, but neither of those will probably happe...
Angell Street Sweater (July 20, 2002)
This is the Angell Street sweater from Berroco #210. I really liked the asymmetry of the sweater. The yarn is Unger Utopia (a really cheap acrylic) in Pomegranate (3+ skeins). I got it at Patternwor...
Well, I just finished giving my last research presentation at Mudd. I learned that the AFM color scheme (light blue on dark blue) I used doesn't show up on overhead projectors, but everybody in the a...
I've added yet another project to my crafts to do list. This shell (which doesn't have a pattern; I'm going to make up one!) is going to entertain me while I'm bumming around Boston next month. I fi...
I got the fabric for Patrick's robot pants yesterday and made them even though it was hot. They're certainly not perfect, but they're good enough to wear around the house. But since it's the middle ...
Patrick's Robot Pants (July 12, 2002)
I made up a very simple (and abridged) pattern for pajama pants (pattern is here) after finding this cool robot flannel at repro depot. They don't fit quite right (too big in the front), but they wer...
I updated my progress pictures for the Angell Street sweater. Here's one of the front pieces.
I foolishly went to Ontario Mills this afternoon, hoping to find a ruffle-front tailored shirt (li...
Sigh...since Patrick isn't here, I've had the TV on nonstop today (well, excepting the four hours I spent AFMing--how insane, working during the weekend). Moonstruck was on this morning, and It Could...
I added two new projects to my crafts to do list. The pants will definitely get made; the halter top is just an idea for now. The pants won't be as girly as they look in my drawing :) They'll be ma...
I finished the jean skirt tonight. The back is still a little weird, but I like it. I love the fact that I have a skirt with real pockets. Finally!
...
Jean Skirt (July 1, 2002)
For this project, I used an old pair of LEI jeans that had torn knees. There are good instructions for this project at Not Martha (also at Get Crafty). I also drew inspiration from this skirt. Mine...
I worked on my jean skirt tonight. I like how it turned out, but I need to buy more fringe (to fill in the middle parts) and take in the back a little more. I'll probably get to those small tasks mi...
Knitting Needle Case (June 28, 2002)
I was inspired to sew my own knitting needle holder by this girl. The pattern I drew for it is here. It holds straight needles in the upper tier and circulars in the lower tier. The top flap folds d...
I finally found out what the trees are that are all over the Inland Empire (wow, awkward sentence!). They're jacarandas, and they have pretty purple flowers that fall down in the summer and make ever...
Look what I got in the mail today!
I am pleased to report that Patternworks is plenty competent. My only complaint is that I didn't get an automatic confirmation of my order when I placed it. ...
I just had a fun time shopping at Jo Ann. In addition to stuff for the jean skirt, I also got supplies to make a knitting needle case and corduroy to make those pants I've been thinking about.
...
Today, I think I'm going to make Patrick's old jeans into a jean skirt for me. I know it's all trendy, but he was going to throw them out, so I might as well try! The only potential problem is that...
Blue Cabled Sweater Jacket (June 19, 2002)
This sweater took a long time! It's made out of Caron cheap-ass worsted weight light blue yarn and is based on a pattern my mom tore out of a magazine in the 70's. The trim is Adriafil Stars in Ball...
Oh boy! I'm almost done with my sweater jacket! Today I knit the trim on the sleeves with the Adriafil Stars yarn. It's so nice and soft and sparkly. And I started sewing up the seams, but now my ...
Oh boy! Look what I bought this morning. I'm happy because I got good stuff, but I didn't spend so much money that I feel guilty about it. Fantastico!
The yarn is Adriafil Stars, and I'm goi...
I added two more projects to my crafts to do list (a pullover with stripey sleeves and a cowlneck shell). I need to spend less time thinking about stuff in the AFM room and more time making things. ...
So we visited Skein today (yes, I convinced Patrick to come along, and he even drove me around! How great is he?). It had a little bit better selection than Needles and Niceties in Upland, but I thi...
I posted the results of my Kool-Aid tests here. This is fun! I think I'm going to leave the scientific side of it alone for awhile now, and just play around. I want to see if my grey mohair wil...
Dyeing Cotton with Kool-Aid (May 30, 2002)
Many people have documented methods of dyeing animal fibers
(ie, wool) with Kool-Aid (see References below).
Cotton is much harder to dye using these methods because it is
derived from plants. I...
Last night, I did some experiments with dyeing yarn with Kool-Aid. It's a big thing among knitters and other fiber people. I didn't like the feel (or price) of any of the wool at Jo-Ann, so I bought...
Yesterday, I made the tank top pattern I bought on Thursday. It didn't turn out as well as the skirt...the seams didn't lie totally flat after ironing and it was too big. So maybe I'll give it to Go...
Calico Wench Skirt (May 10, 2002)
I made this skirt for a pirate party. It's a yellow flower print on cotton and is based on a Burda pattern (8832) I like the ruffle!
My new skirt (it no longer has that pocket)
This top was from a ...
Cap-Sleeved Springtime Dress (May 5, 2002)
This dress was meant to be a nice springtime dress, but it came out a litle tighter and more revealing than I'd expected. The thought was nice though. It's based on a New Look pattern (6057) and is ...
Just got back from WWJD's party, Martini. It was to celebrate next year's suite and was pretty small. There were even a few profs there. I got to talk with Prof. McCurdy (a chem professor who didn'...
Typography Bags (April 1, 2002)
Metalmorphosis was the result of my semester-long independent study in Typography at Scripps College. It is a unique book about flesh, metal, love, and relationships. Over the course of the semester,...
I finally got all the family pictures up that I scanned over break. I had almost 100 total, but I only put a select few up since only people in my family would care to see that many family pictu...
Blue Scarf with Red Stripe (December 27, 2001)
I made this scarf for Patrick out of some blue bulky yarn in a simple garter stitch. He hasn't worn it much; maybe the blue is too bright.
Blue scarf with a red stripe...
Red Scarf with Fringe (December 27, 2001)
I made this scarf out of a cheap red yarn that was highly textured (I bought it at Michaels, so it must be pretty widely available). I think it was called Fascination or something silly like that. Th...
