I have knitted my mum a scarf:




It was incredibly easy - stocking stitch forever, and then drop stitches right at the end. They're not entirely evenly spaced now, but I don't think my mum will mind. It's mochi plus yarn, which I got for a cardigan and then realised wouldn't work. (And now I've got off the whole idea of the cardigan so I'm going to frog it, or maybe turn the torso bit into a sleep bag for my new relative.) It's lovely and soft.

It may be incredibly easy, but the result is lovely. Go you! I hope your mum will like it.

That is a beautiful scarf. I like yarns where one colour seems to fade into the next. It does look very smooth and soft too.

I need to get my knitting mojo back and start on my next project. I got very bored with the last one, kept making mistakes, and didn't like the end result anyway, so I frogged it all. I just haven't sorted myself out for the next thing yet.

Lovely.

Do you use big needles and thinnish yarn to get the hole-y effect? I like it a lot.
