It is beautiful and I love those soft colours. I can't get over the size of those tiny little feet in the striped socks. :-) -- |

The scarf was my first lace project, which I posted about a couple of weeks ago looking for advice. I was happy with how it turned out and gave it to my mother this past weekend for an early Mother's Day gift. The yarn was leftover from a pair of socks I made her last Christmas. Hm, the owner of those tiny feet sounds like she is hungry. Better go! LauraJ |

I keep thinking of doing a branching out scarf. Yours looks great.
Looks like you have been busy. In April I mostly worked on things for the Afghans for Afghans Mothers Day project - a blanket, three hats and a variety of baby socks (made from my sock leftovers). I also finished a pair of cadet grey wildfoote socks for my DH. My WIPs include a felted bag for me and a celtic sweater for me. In my stash and on my mind --- a Dale baby wool crossover cardigan for a new little person - sort of built like one of those tiny baby undershirts. I have very light green for the main color with the baby blue and really light yellow for the accent binding and ties. I may make a little cap to go with it. I have more sock yarn -- including some nice yarn from Norway that is more sport weight that I want to use for hiking socks. I have some lace weight that is enough for a scarf -- maybe I will try a branching out scarf with it. That little bib is sweet. Judy |

That scarf is gorgeous Laura! Good job!
I finally finished my pullover sweater that I started last year. Would have finished sooner but got distracted by other projects LOL. I also made a pair of socks out of the Regia Jaquard - the one that makes the different shades of blue stripes. Will be perfect to wear with jeans.

Thanks for the compliments! Like yarn, you can never get enough of them
The branching out scarf was lots of fun. One thing that is nice about it is since it is a scarf you can use whatever weight yarn you want. I used sock yarn. I believe the pattern gives directions for two different weights. LauraJ "JCT" wrote in message ups.com... I keep thinking of doing a branching out scarf. Yours looks great.

I have been saving that stuff up for so long and we finally had a nice enough day (and a few extra minutes) to go outside and take the pictures. Sounds like you have been busy too! I agree with your take on knitting baby items! Though I have been having such knitter's block lately. I think I need a big project to work on so I don't have to think of something new to knit every week - what happened to the girl who used to have 10 projects on the needles at a time and 10 more in the back of her mind???

was wrong! Do we get to see pictures of your work? I'd especially love to see the sweater. LauraJ wrote in message oups.com... That scarf is gorgeous Laura! Good job!

Hi Laura: You can see some of my stuff on Photobucket.com
Bienchat is the password to type in. The shoulders of the sweater got a little scrunched up in the picture, (dont ask). Now that I think about it, I don't have a picture of the other sweater I finished on there. But the striped pullover is the first pic. The Regia Jaquard socks are in the 2nd pic. BTW, I got some pretty green mohair blend yarn that I started the Branching out scarf with. I don't know if the yarn was too fine or if the scarf needs to be blocked for a good look, but I wasn't too excited with how it was coming out so I frogged it. I'm going to try it again with a thicker yarn. Marie and the cats On May 16, 6:12 am, "Laura J" wrote: Thanks, Marie! It was a fun project - never thought I'd enjoy lace but I was wrong!
