I picked up the Daisy-Swatch-Turned-Scarf (see sidebar) this week at the encouragement of a persuasive group of knitters. I finished off the main body pattern, bound off, and swatched edgings.
Knitting on an edging is turning out to be more fun than I thought it would be. That’s not hard, since I expected it to be laborious, tedious, and miserable.
In truth, it’s a pleasant way to fill the unhappy hours of sick, which I still am.

I’m sorry to hear that you’re still sick, but that scarf sure looks good!

Laura,
That daisy swatch has always caught my eye! I love that it’s lace, but with a bit of whimsy. . .not so serious as so much lace out there. It makes me want to get out a magnifying glass and those itty bitty needles that freak me out and give it a whirl!
Hope you’re on the mend. . .nothing worse than being sick. . .except being sick with a little one who’s also sick! I’m sending healing thoughts.

P.S. Is there a pattern for that daisy swatch, or are you just brilliant and made it up yourself? (you’re brilliant even if you didn’t make it up!).

L, as an FYI – You’re not feeding to bloglines and haven’t been for a while…
I usually hit the link for your blog to come right to the page as I can’t get previews.
Thought you should know.
AND
Are you going to the Seattle Knitting Expo?
