I knit something!

I have two new loves... Handmaiden yarns and Knitspot patterns by Anne Hanson!

Rivolo

This is her Rivolo scarf.

The yarn is Handmaiden Casbah in "Smoke"... knit with size 5 needles.
As you can see, there was no pooling, just gentle transitions in color.

Now we just need it to cool off a bit more.

I love Casbah! It just magically fell into my basket at my LYS one day ;). I'm knitting the ever popular Lace Ribbon Scarf with it. Your scarf looks beautiful, and I'm sure it's super soft and lovely to wear! Kudos.

I have just the teeniest tiniest bit left on a pair of socks that I have dreamed about finishing...and have put it off for days. I envy you. It really is a beautiful scarf so here is wishing you cooler weather :-)

Well, until it cools off down your way, you could always send it up here where it's already cold and raining......!! ;)
It's lovely.
