Alpaca Lace Scarf (mobius?) now blocking




I had only 3 skeins of Baby Alpaca with a Twist Yarn and wondered what to make with it. the plan once this finishs blocking is to make it into a mobius scarf. It knitted up to only 48 inches so I'm not sure how it will be and am anxiously awaiting it to dry. The pattern is a free Leaf Lace Pattern posted as a free download on Ravelry. For my first attempt at lace, it was quite easy. Once dry and finished I will post the final picture.

Felted Lopi Summer Purse

 
  I used Lopi Lite Yarn in bright fun colors and knitted and felted a purse. It has become my favorite for taking the latest projects to the knitting groups or to watch my granddaughter practice gymnastics. I didn't really have a pattern. I just knitted in the round and icorded the handles. I shaped it on a cereal box when felting.
