'I would like a scarf that is made as a cirkel. Can you make one for me?'
A friend had seen somebody wearing something that she definitely wanted. She appreciates well done needlework, interesting designs and to have something that 'nobody else has'.
I took a look in some of my knitting books and I found a design that my friend liked very much. Then we chose yarn from my stash.
It's a Classic Elite Yarns design from the pattern book 'Alpaca Stories', Silky Alpaca Lace Tube Scarf.
The tube scarf is made of two 'simple' scarfs that is sewn together to a tube and then the ends are sewn together to a cirkel. It's very easy to design your own scarf in other lace patterns, knitting techniques, colours and gauges. Just knit swatches and block them to get the gauge right for both parts.
The yarn used in this design is a alpaca/silk blend and a merino/silk blend from Hjertegarn. Both yarns have a beautiful lustre that makes the snood look elegant.
I continue the finishing!
