Hate/Hate Relationship. . .

I HATE KNITTING SCARVES!!!!! It's just boring!!! I finally finished my grandma's Cedar Scarf, which is blocking right now. Unfortunately the light in my bedroom is dark, so the pics didn't come out.
I am looking for rather simple holiday gifts for my family. . . .My sister bought me 6 skeins of wool yarn while she was in Turkey. It's not a colour I personally would wear. Sooooo, thinking about holiday gifts, my mind set on my grandpa. I thought, hey, he's a former colonol, why not? Sadly, this is exactly what I thought. Soo today I started an Irish Hiking Scarf for him. It's not too boring, but still. Ye know? Anyways, the pic of it soo far is below. Very neutral. heh. . .

This past weekend I also met my brother's girlfriend, Alisha. She's sweet and nice and everything I'm not. =P j/k I asked her what she wanted & she said footsies, so begins another pair of socks. My second pair of Wnky Cable Cabin Socks have gone on the back burner. I'm using my August Spunky Club olourway Celebration. She loves pink, and it has pink in it, but can also go with a bunch of other things.

Love the cables on your scarf. Nice even stitches!

I think the scarf will be perfect for your grandpa!! I'm with you on scarves, tho... they get rather boring! I have an Irish Hiking Scarf on the needles, and while I love the look of it, I can't bring myself to finish it... Why oh why then did I start a Chevron Scarf?? One of the mysteries of life.. Knitting some Monkey Socks now and enjoying them tremendously! Have your Wonky Cable Cabin Sock printed off and in queue! I love the design of it and can't wait to get started! Have a great weekend. Be a good girl ;-)

I am soooo with you in the hating of scarves. Unless they are for tiny children or myself, I no longer knit them. But the Irish Hiking Scarf does look quite lovely!
