What's on the needles!

I looked everywhere I could think of to find orange and black yarn to make this scarf.  My friend found it for me!  She just gave it to me yesterday and I had to start knitting this morning.  This is our high school colors and I want to be able to wear it to football games this year as I cheer for my Grandson!  It can serve dual purpose when the month of October rolls around!  It is Ice yarns Salsa.  Check out Judy Laquidara's link to find out what others have on their needles.

You also need to check out Handmade Harbour to see what crafty things have been made! I finished this ruffled scarf a few days ago.  Can you see the shamrock?  The more I worked with this yarn, the easier it got. 

I'm still working on the February Lady Sweater.  It's going quickly now that I'm on the sleeves.  I don't feel as pressured now that February has come and gone, but I will finish it by next February, for sure!!!

  1. That is a very pretty ruffle scarf. I don't think I've ever seen black and orange yarn either. It sure makes up pretty and it's bound to bring a win for the grandson's team!! Your Lady sweater looks pretty. Can't tell what color it is though.

  2. You've got some nice projects going. A friend made the February Lady Sweater last year and I was really anxious to make one, but got distracted and still haven't. I need to check my yarn closet and see if I have yarn. Then when I finish a couple of things on my needles, I'll be ready to go with it.

  7. I love it when a piece can be used for several occasions. The orange wool with the black contrast really stands out. I love the different shades of green in the other scarf too.
