I found the most amazing scarf pattern on Ravelry here. I really, really, really want to make it. However I have too many things already on the go, so I've decided that not only am I absolutely going to use yarn that I already own, but I can have a go only when I've finished the multicoloured blanket I started months ago and the baby blanket I started last week. I plan to look at the pattern every day to give me an incentive to get knitting. I hope to be able to sell the baby blanket, and I was planning to donate the multicoloured blanket, but the multicoloured blanket isn't really good enough. It's been years since I knit something so shaky.
It's supposed to be a column of stocking stitch with most of the blanket in plain knitting. It looks more like a cable in the way it's twisting all over, and blocking is unlikely to help because it's 100% acrylic. I've even got a hole!
Anyway, although it's not fit to either sell or donate, it's light, soft and surprisingly warm, so it will be lovely here and I'll work out a different blanket to donate.
Hugs and good health to all.
