If you would, please take a moment

My friend’s dog George died this morning. He has been battling cancer for a long time, and after a bad night, and rather hopeless treatment options offered this morning, they decided to send him to eternal rest. She is devastated, and if you would go and visit her with condolences, I know it would provide her some comfort on a dark and lonely day.

I have finally decided what to do with my lovely blue/gray angora yarn. And it’s going very well.

It’s the same stitch pattern that I knit the Lacy Noro Hat in, and I’m planning on knitting another one in this yarn to match the scarf. Which means, I’ll be finally WRITING that pattern out, for those of you who have wanted it. I know I’ve wanted it.

This scarf is going significantly faster than the Interlocking Balloons scarf did, even though it’s the same yarn, because the needle is bigger, and the stitch is easy. Although I won’t be able to memorize it, but it’s still easy.

Lavold’s Angora yarn is so yummy for a scarf. It has weight to it, and it’s warm, and it drapes like a dream. A want a million Angora scarves now.
