Pattern: Lorelai Shawl by Shannon Cook
Yarn: lots of different types (see my project page here)
This project started with an OOAK (one of a kind) skein of DK merino/cashmere yarn that I had gotten from Tanis Fiber Artss. (The top and bottom blue) I had the yarn for awhile and couldn't decide what to do with it. When this pattern was published I wanted to knit it but talked myself out of it. A couple months later I was looking at my TFA yarn again and all of a sudden I knew what to do with it. I went to the basement and dug around in my yarn stash and came up with enough other yarns to make a Lorelei.
I wear it like this for warmth and to keep it out of my way on the front. Handy when teaching kindergarten. |
This is how I wear it most. |
I wear it like this around my house to be cozy. |
I love the phrase make2along. I'm at the point in my sewing and knitting where I'm really trying to make sure what I'm making fits with other things in my handmade wardrobe.
What do you like to make? Are you interested in making outfits?
