My first knit scarf

Pin It

Hey everybody, popping in to say hello after a long time. Life got little busy with 2 birthdays and working on a new project. Anyhow I managed to finish my first knit scarf that I mentioned here. I had bought only 2 hanks of the thick and thin yarn and was unsure if it would be enough to make the scarf but luckily it was more than enough and I have a small ball leftover.

I really enjoyed making the scarf but even after blocking it the edges curl inwards and I don't know if it is because of the yarn or if blocking was not done right. I'm not going to block it again. I'll put it away for now. 

For my son's birthday earlier this month I made an ombre cake. It was a chocolate, coffee and vanilla layer cake with ombre frosting. I have a recipe journal where I try to keep a record of all the new recipes that I try. 

It's so much fun and I'm loving it. You too can try this method to keep a track on your kitchen adventures.  

Have a great day! 

Thick and thin

Pin It

Last time when I visit my local yarn store I found this thick and thin yarn. I had never seen this yarn before in Delhi, so I bought two hanks of the only color that he had. I wanted to try knitting with this yarn, After knitting and frogging for about 7 or 8 times I finally managed to get into the groove. I'm not sure what I am going to make. I was planning to make a scarf but I don't think two hanks are going to be enough and I don't know if I'll be able to find more of this yarn in the yarn store. So for now I'll continue to knit until I run out of yarn, then I'll think about what to do with it. 

Have you ever worked with thick and thin yarn? Do you enjoy working with it?
