Remember this scarf? It’s finally finished! I gave it to my mom for her birthday and she loves it. It’s my first lace project and I’m very pleased with it.
I wanted to knit a lace scarf for my mom, but she can’t wear wool. It took awhile (and a lot of ripping and re-knitting) to find an appropriate acrylic yarn and a pattern that didn’t rely too heavily on blocking. Actually, this blocked better than I thought it would. The leaves opened up nicely.
Eventually I’d like to try this pattern with some wool, but I need a little break from all these tiny leaves.
details: Pattern is Branching Out from Knitty. Yarn is Red Heart Luster Sheen. Bow tied with a re-purposed Nordstrom ribbon, which probably came on a gift from my mom.
it’s beautiful!! I love the way you wrapped it too with that cute little bow!

Oh, pretty! I bet your mom loved such a thoughtful gift!
It’s so pretty! I just learned to crochet and hope one day I can knit a scarf like this.
This is so just beautiful! Great lace work.
