A guest knitter

No, this scarf was not knit by me...

Becky made it!! In just 5 hours!

I taught Becky to knit this weekend. She is such a fast learner. We practiced the knit stitch on some yarn I had in my stash, then went to pick out some yarn for her to make a scarf at my local yarn store. She picked a super soft, gorgeous alpaca yarn.

She started her scarf last night...



and when I woke up this morning it was done!


Good job, Bec. It looks beautiful!

Becky even started a second project--this chunky yarn neckwarmer. The hole is a button hole for a brown, earthy button that will hold the neckwarmer together. I actually liked this yarn so much that I bought a skein too!


It's so much fun to have another friend who loves to knit! Erica, we're going to have to take a knitting vacation all together! :)
