kitty tracks scarf




kitty scarf i made for my sister for christmas. o.k. so it had to be gray as she wears a lot of black and likes dull colors. she had to put her 19 1/2 yr old cat down in october and has a new kitten, her new passion. free pattern is at http://iliveonafarm.com/gentlewaters.html . i used dolly maxi lenea merino, all wool from italy. it's about $8.75/ball and i used 2 1/2 balls. i chose to make a scarf that could be worn with a suit jacket so i had to knit both ends from the bottom separately, reduce stitches to half at the part that would go under the collar then weave together with a kitchener stitch. i just finished it today (12/23/2007). sure hope sister likes it.
