Before I started knitting mostly toys I made quite a few cardis and jumpers for the children but it has been ages since I made anything for myself. Well, that has just changed mainly thanks to ravelry. I was so inspired by all the gorgeous knitting going over there and finding the perfect free pattern on knitty was the push I needed to rush out and buy myself some scarf yarn.
And shortly after I had this – my ‘branching out’ scarf in herb felted tweed.
I’ve really enjoyed making this scarf and I’m chuffed to bits with how it turned out. I have a feeling that I might have need to make another in a different yarn sometime soon! There is also some bunny knitting going on here but more news of that next week.

I’ve tried this pattern too – it’s lovely isn’t it! I like it in the yarn you have used, very chic. ‘Knitty’ rocks – I’ve made quite a few of their patterns and they are always really smart.
