Yarn Along


Joining Ginny's Yarn-Along on this fine summer day!

I'm currently between books.  What you see on my messy desk is papers that need to be dealt with and my list of things to do.  And I need to add to the top of that list "Buy New Printer" since ours died and it's amazing how important a printer can be these days!


My project is a Scots Bonnet, not to be confused with the hot pepper.  A Tam.  A Tam O'Shanter.  I think they're all basically the same thing.  When I went to the Scottish Highland Festival with my girlfriends on Saturday, I saw a young woman knitting them and they're gorgeous.  So I bought a pattern and got to work with the only wool I have that will felt.  But I bought some more yesterday because I'm planning to like this pattern. ;-)

Benjamin Bunny looks cute in his!
I think it'll be a quick knit, but it will also be my first felting project.  

If you're not Yarning Along, at least let me know what you're reading.  I need some new ideas!

  1. What a fun project - I can't wait to see it :)

    I love the DeSales quote on your sidebar, it's one of my favorites!

  2. Oh lovely. You do Highland Games very well in the US. Ours will be starting next month here. Good luck with your felting.
    I noticed you too enjoy Gegorian chant - so beautiful.
