A Finished Project! AKA Saturday PhotoHunt: Knitted

(What a wacky week.  Tuesday was on Monday, and now Saturday is on Wednesday.)

I have too so many unfinished projects sitting around and I'm getting annoyed with myself.  So I have been trying to complete a few.


Hooray, I finished this scarf!  It had been sitting around for several years, reknit twice because it was too wide and short the first time. and too scratchy the second.  Mixing in some soft heathery yarn did the trick.


I did something wild and crazy and mixed crochet and knitting.  I like the crocheted ruffle instead of a fringe.


If I start another knitting project but I should finish some other things first, it would be this beautiful Entrelac Scarf from Frecklesandpurls.com.  I've been studying this tutorial from verypinkknits.

    That's beautiful, and that's some determination, to knit a scarf twice!

    Love the new scarf! Great color!
    I think I threw out (or at least, I hope I did!) my failed knitting projects. After multiple attempts, the yarn wasn't worth saving. And I refuse to count my unfinished projects. Nope! Not going there...

    That future project is GORGEOUS!

    I just wish I could knit! I know how to, technically, but so slowly that I lose interest well before anything is finished.

    I love your scarf. I hope you do go on to the Entrelac one before too long. :)
