I’m Knitting As Fast As I Can

Ostrich feathers have been used for decades to make feather dusters. In this design, I’ve paired an ostrich plume stitch pattern with a lovely mohair/silk yarn to create a light-as-a-feather triangular scarf.

Suggested Yarn: Shibui Silk Cloud, a mohair/silk lace-weight yarn.
Needle: U.S. #7 (4.5 mm)
Finished Size: 50 inches across the wingspan and 22 inches down the center back. The finished size is easily adjusted by working more or fewer repeats of the stitch pattern.

The instructions are presented in both chart and written (row-by-row) form.

This project is appropriate for beginning lace knitters, but I would recommend substituting a non-mohair yarn.

Until I got a comment from Susanne today, I had no idea it had been more than a month since my last blog post. Yikes. How did that happen? I guess it’s easy to fall out of the habit of blogging.

I’ve decided to keep myself on the posting track by instituting a Friday theme for the blog . . . Five on Friday.  Every Friday I’ll post five things I’ve done since the Friday before.  Is anyone interested in joining me?

Of course, today isn’t Friday, but here are five things I’ve done since last time I posted.

1. I went to Boston to visit my parents and squeezed in a one-day detour to Springfield.

2. I finished NaKniSweMoDo sweater #8 (link to Ravelry project page):

3. I finished NaKniSweMoDo sweater #9 (link to Ravelry project page):

4. I released a new shawl pattern called Beach Glass. You can purchase it by clicking through to my Ravelry storefront and I’ll be adding it to the sidebar early next week.

5. I took a leisurely train ride to Ogden to visit one of my favorite yarn shops, the Needlepoint Joint.

What about you? Have you done something fun in the last month???

Isn’t grafting the most magical thing . . . ever!

Thanks to everyone who offered to test knit the scarf version of the Fountain Pen shawl.  I’ve made arrangements with two volunteers, but I kept a folder with the names of everyone who offered.  Once I get some more charts worked up for my other ideas, I’ll come knocking.
