cross that one off of the list

Lesson learned today: a dangerous place to be is in a yarn shop the day they receive their shipment of Koigu. Oy, was that temptation. I managed to resist, somehow, but there was a lot of pretty there that did not come home with me.

So, that recent case of start-itis resulted in a completely unplanned project. I happened to see a pattern in a book Irene brought to Knitsmiths, remembered that I had this random skein yarn that I had gotten from Thea at a Knitsmiths swap, and a few days later, I had another scarf.

Pattern: Cross Stitch Scarf, from 101 Designer One-Skein Wonders
Yarn: Danette Taylor Handpainted (one skein) on US11 needles

I don't even know who it's for, it almost feels like it made itself. But that's another random ball from the stash accounted for!
