My entrelac kerchief, knit from my niece Katy’s lovely spinning, is done!
Though I would normally never take something I care this much about with me on a trip, I was able to get it into my purse, so I was relatively certain that nothing bad would happen to it. That gave me two medium length flights as well as the evening to knit in, and I got it finished Sunday night!
The picture doesn’t do the yarn colors justice, but it has been gray and rainy here since it got finished, and finally I had to just take the pictures. Also, “helpers” in the form of my cats would appear every time I set it down to take a picture. So I had to fling it down and click the picture, because within minutes – sometimes seconds – there were cats standing all over it. They are such good helpers!
I do have some of the yarn left, so may be able to make wristers or something similar to go with the kerchief. The pattern is Quick-Knit Kerchief, and the yarn is handspun. The main change I made to the pattern is that I decided to finish the top edge with i-cord, which I think turned out pretty well.
In other project news, I’m working on the button band of Glenesk. And when that’s done – on to finishing Call of the Siren!
What beautiful colors! It will be a lovely accessory. Of course the cats would come running, they appreciate beauty too!

Very pretty! Cats do like soft things. They also think everything looks better with a little cat fur on them.

I saw you were doing that! It’s actually a pretty easy technique once you get going, though it definitely looks complicated 🙂 Looking forward to pics of your progress!
