Knitting, etc.

I found this pattern in a book called Last Minute Knitted Gifts. Well, kind of. You can actually find the pattern here since it was completely wrong in the book. I think this is a stitch called broken rib.

Anyway, this scarf was knit in knitpicks’ decadence, which is a 100% alpaca scarf. I’m giving it to my grandpa for Christmas.

I knit the scarf about 60″ long and then I blocked it (by putting water all over it and then laying it on a towel and shaping it). It’s now about 70″ long. Who knew it would do that?! So it’s a nice long scarf and alpaca is supposed to be really nice and warm. Hopefully this will help to ease Grandpa’s transition from Florida winters to Michigan winters.
