I have finished knitting a favorite stash-busting scarf. It is a narrow knit version of a ripple afghan. Because it has many stripes, it is possible to incorporate some wild colors into the same scarf, even thought this isn’t a strong example of that. One this one, I started with black, worked halfway, did another black stripe and then mirrored the stripes back to the end. It’s a great way to eat away at those single skeins that I have been given or just seem to be hanging around. People who are not homeless like this pattern, and I hope the homeless person who chooses this scarf will really like it. It hope it is comforting as a mini-afghan. Tomorrow I plan to weave all the tails in–two per stripe.

Here are two pictures my DS took of himself in his Christmas hat. 2.000 words and then some.
