I’ve been on a bit of a knitting hiatus lately, but a little bird told me that a little girl was hoping for a scarf from Aunt Kelly for Christmas, so I happily picked up a few skeins of soft, brightly colored yarn to whip up a couple of scarves for our nieces, Shanay and Hayden. They are both rib-knit, one with alternating blocks of a chunky green and yellow yarn, one with a double-strand of two shades of purple. Hayden wore her purple scarf around the house all afternoon after we exchanged gifts, which tells me it was a hit. I like to think I’ll be doing my small part to keep these girls warm during the freezing cold winter to come…
