Scarf for a Friend


I have been working on a scarf for a friend who turns 40 in early April.  I love the lace pattern. I hope that it holds its shape after I block it. Right now the points have curled in on themselves while I'm knitting, so I pinned them out so  you could get the idea of what it will look like finished. I think that I have about 10" left to go, to make it a nice long scarf!  I should finish it by the end of the week, so I have plenty of time to block it properly.

I have also been working on the February Lady Sweater. I have about 5" left on the body and then I can start on the arms!! I cannot wait to wear this sweater. It is going to be hard to sit there and look at it while its drying during blocking. I will just want to wear it straight off the needles.

Maybe I will learn a little more patience this month as I finish some awesome projects. Or maybe not. I am very impatient by nature.
