Another Scarf

I've finished the scarf I was knitting for my mum for Christmas. The photo doesn't really do it justice, it's a gorgeous blue, not quite the colour that the photo shows.


I remember that my mum was looking for a blue scarf last year but never found one she liked, so I hope she's happy with this.


I've now cast on a pair of socks. I need them now the colder weather's arrived.

  3. I'm sure your mum will love it, its very pretty. I'd love to knit some socks and found some needles in a charity shop, but I don't think I could concentrate for long enough. Looking forward to seeing yours. Amanda x

  7. Thanks for your lovely comments, everyone.

    Amanda and Joanna - I bought some wool from http://www.getknitted.com and they send a free sock pattern with any sock wool bought. I found the pattern very easy. I had never knit socks before but succeeded on my first attempt, so well worth giving it a go.
