Random Knitted Scarf

I'm pleased with the way this scarf turned out.  Used up some bits and pieces from my wool stash - just randomly added colours and different yarns.


Popped in a few different stitches as the mood took me.


Decided to just knit little tweaky (is that even a word?) bits for the ends - and this is the result.


Looks good with my cream winter jacket.

Love, Liz

Really glad January is over!

I love it - a one off piece created by using up odds and ends - that's my kind of project!

This is lovely, Liz. Looks nice and cosy. I'm also glad January is behind us, can't wait for warm weather. It's freezing here at the moment, must be even colder where you are. By the way, I like your new look at the top xxx

Nice scarf, good to be able to use the bits and pieces, and the fringe is a good idea.
I,m pleased january is over too, but we can still have a very harsh time ahead of us here in Norway. Today is absolutely freezing.

Enjoy your wednesday.

Love the warm neutral colours and interesting yarns you've used here - it looks very warm and cosy, and has used up your bits and bobs - perfect!

Think 'tweaky' is the perfect word for those bits!

It reminds me of the Dr. Who scarf - my daughter wants one.

Good morning Liz ~ it's gorgeous! the colours are perfectly matched and I really like the different stitches that you've used. There is always something so satifying about finishing up any odd bits of wool. Just what you need given the freezing cold weather we're having at the moment. I look forward to seeing a crocheted one next ~ lol!Wishing you a happy Thursday ~ Haizi

Ooo! How gorgeous, you are clever.
I tried to comment before, but I think it didn't work. I love your dresser. You have some lovely exciting vintage china, swoon.
I love the Burns epitaph. Your old book looks a lot like one my other half has.
I heard a programme about Burns on the radio recently and it siad he was a bit of a womaniser. He certainly did sound like a character.
I am a new follower too! xxx

Wow...Liz, I love it! I am totally impressed and it looks so designer chic. I wish I could knit but have my hands full with adding crocheting to stitching, quilting and bobbinlace making. :-)

Did you get cold and snow this past week? You do need the weather to now wear this beauty.

Hugs from Holland ~
