Does she knit anymore?.....................................

Improvisations are finished and ready for the recipient. My SiL is a wonderful and caring person, my sons adore her and she is very good to them. Besides she has great taste. She loves my hand knitted socks. These are for her. :)


Knitted in Iona Sport weight Yarn from Macyarns.

This is a gorgeous skein of handspun silk from Lilcoley. I have enjoyed knitting this scarf immensely. I even delayed finishing to maintain the experience of handling the soft silky yarn. :)

Soft mauve and gold colours

knitted in 2x2 rib, the yarn does the rest

I love the slight slubbing and thick/thin effect knitted up......................

    Lovely!
    Where do you find all these gorgeous yarns? Some I know of, but others are new to me. You're a great source of 'leads'!

    You really do have the most beautiful yarns! The scarf will be luxurious to wear and who would not love a pair of handmade socks, especially from you.
