Finished!!!

My pal's scarf is DONE!!! I hope she likes it--she said she didn't know how to crochet and since she is such a good knitter, I decided to crochet a lacey, cotton, denim friendly one that is hopefully light enough for the spring/summer chill--I packed up lots of goodies and it is leaving tomorrow to go across the big pond:):):)

Yarn Choice for my Pal:):):)

I purchased some cotton yarn that was hand dyed in Chile at my LYS for my spoilee!! I love the color and the twist is nice--It is called Araucania Pomaire--I asked her whether she would prefer a scarf for spring/summer or a warmer one to put away for winter and she said she would prefer one for now---I also made the decision to crochet it!!! She mentioned that she doesn't know how to crochet and she is a very accomplished knitter, so I thought that she might appreciate something different, since I can do both--I hope she likes it--Here is the yarn!

Dress Knitting!!

When we went to visit our new grand daughter recently, I made her two little dresses in cotton--I thought they came out pretty cute.
Here they are!

I have my match!!!

I received the information about the person that I will be making a scarf for---she seems very flexible and open about what she wants but I am really torn about what to make----her climate will be similar to mine--warm in May when the scarf arrives, so I don't know whether to make something really light (but who wears even light scarfs in the summer) or a scarf that she can save until fall/winter????

Also, I have seen some of her knitting and based on how accomplished she is--I am feeling that I won't make something nice enough--oh well, I have to think some more!!!
