Coquille KAL Prize Yarn


Crystal Palace Yarn is such a generous yarn company. This time I won 3 skeins of my choice by participating in the Coquille KAL. It was such a fun scarf to knit - I am already planning a second one!

June 2011



Made these socks using the Magic Mystery Dog Pattern (North Dakota) by Rachel Wilson from the 50 Socks 50 States CD. I used Mt. Colors 4/8's wool in the Sagebrush colorway. Ran out of yarn so added some Galway Highland Heather yarn in a light green that blended well... at least that part will be stuck in a shoe! I started with size 4 needles, then went to 3's and then 2's. The majority was knit with 2's.
I also made a scarf for my Granddaughter, Haley. I used some pink eyelash that was from my stash and didn't even have the yardage on it.
