Closing Out 2013


The last project I completed in 2013 was The Fibre Company's Basalt Scarf. The pattern called for Road to China yarn. It is a blend of cashmere, camel, silk and baby alpaca. The softness and drapey-ness of this yarn is what drew me to this project. This scarf is knitted in garter stitch with an attached i-cord. i-cord is short for idiot cord because it is so easy to do. I did have to ask for help to get started on the i-cord. I just wasn't grasping what it was I was to do! I just kept staring at the directions with the hopes it would just click and off I would go.
