…or two. I’m off and running today to get everything accomplished, Had a medical test yesterday that took two days of my life to get accomplished, and if you’re my age, you’ll know what test that was. (Everything fine, by the way.) So today I must do everything that I can normally stretch over three days. Not complaining, mind, just excusing this quick post, which is about a new free pattern on our website, called Thick & Thin Infinity Scarf.
Sometimes I can’t explain why a yarn doesn’t sell particularly well. If I love it, everyone should love it, right? But when I think about it, the reason some beautiful yarn just sits there is generally my fault because I don’t have the right model for it. That was the case with Haciendo, a thick and thin extra fine merino bulky yarn from Plymouth that has been on our shelves for a year or two at least – long enough to be discontinued by Plymouth at any rate. It’s soft, we have pretty colors, and it’s not expensive compared to merino prices today. I’ve contemplated it every now and then but never found the right project to let its texture and softness come to the fore. Now I think I’ve got it, and I think you’ll like it too.
This cowl/infinity scarf takes two skeins, is fast and easy and done in the round. You need size 11 and 15 circular needles and about two evenings to make it. It’s long enough to wrap twice around your neck
soft, fluffy, cushy with lots of texture
What more can you want??!! Under $30 to make? Check. (until it runs out!) Enjoy!
