Lacy Waves Scarf
Thoughts, projects, and a few yarns from a self taught knitting obsessive and growing crochet enthusiast. (i.e. my escape from the cubical to my happy place)

Lacy Waves
There is something fascinating about taking a ball of meaningless yarn and transforming it into a beautiful product. The best part of creating a project from scratch is that it makes a gift truly from you. Back in February, my Aunt “J” got one of these gifts, a green scarf, for her birthday!
The other great thing about making them yourself is when people like it so much they want another one :) …. cue the next pic I am showing you of the Lacy Waves Scarf (finished in mid-March). Aunt “J” asked me for a black scarf (and gave me no other specifications)…so… I decided to take the opportunity to try a new pattern and it turned out beautifully.
The key in this scarf is using yarn overs,which make the holes/lacy effect, and knitting two stitches together, which creates the peaks and valleys. It comes out feeling very light, but still warm, and would be great for a crisp morning in the fall…. speaking of which maybe by next year I’ll need one for myself :)
