On the needles


A scarf (my first ever) in this yummy alpaca yarn that I got at The Point in NYC. It is a "ribbed for her pleasure" scarf (pattern from the Stitch n Bitch Nation book that is way past due from my local library). I made the ribbing a little wider than it suggested and I wish everyone could feel how soft this is.

This is Ryan's xmas present - even if he did pick out the yarn.

My Dad gave me an alpaca sweater one year for Christmas and I must have worn that thing for 10 years. What a lovely gift for Ryan.

Nice scarf. I love alpaca!!!!!! It has to be the softest yarn. I love alpaca oops, I already said that once. I can imagine how soft it is. Lucky for Ryan.

Alpaca is one of my fave yarns,
it's gorgeous to knit with and a delight to wear.
I love the colour.
