Yarn Along - A Scarf and Nefertiti
Wednesday, April 6, 2011 at 4:51PM 
There is a wonderful link up each Wednesday, "Yarn Along" at Small Things. Ginny's blog is just beautiful - I am inspired each time I read a post from her. Now that I have learned to knit I can finally join in the fun on Wednesdays.
I am reading a WONDERFUL book, Nefertiti, by Michelle Moran. We just finished our study of Ancient Egypt and I'm intrigued with this era of history. The book is enlightening and full of suspense - it is literally a book I cannot put down.
I am knitting a very simple scarf (since this is just my third knitting project ever!) for my goddaughter - I love the thick yarn and once it is all finished I will investigate making a pair of fingerless gloves to match. As you can see, I'm not too far along! The pattern is just a simple K2 P2, which I'm finding out is a basic scarf pattern. I have so much to learn about knitting, but hopefully by visiting some of the blogs in the yarn along I will learn more!

Love that scarf -- I'm a sucker for stripes! The book looks good, too, think I'll put it on my list -- I really need to climb out of my reading rut and find something new.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Pretty spring like colors in your scarf!
That book looks good! We also just finished Ancient Egypt, I'd love a book that I couldn't put down from that time period. I'll put it on my list...thanks for the idea. The scarf looks lovely!
You should be so proud of yourself! You're doing awesome.
