This is a WIM for me, and I was just looking at the yarn and gauge requirements. It calls for a gauge of 19 sts/25 rows in 4" of stockinette on 5mm needles. I'm not sure that I want to use a yarn that heavy. I'd like to make it from yarn already in my stash. Has anyone made this scarf in a...

Good day everyone! I don't usually have time to pop in on the weekends, but DH is very busy sharpening the chain saw, so I have some time now. Once he gets that done - we're outside to do the usual woodcutting and splitting for the woodstove. We are definitely into cooler almost winter weather...

Hello, all... this is a de-lurk I am a long-lapsed knitter, having given up the craft when I realized I really couldn't figure out tension and regardless, I didn't need more sweaters or scarves.
