Notes

I must be nuts to start another project and with this crazy yarn but something spoke to me and I bought the yarn during one of my sleepless nights.

Modified version of Kusha scarf (one strand with beads)

Can’t find the pattern that speaks to me so I decided to cast on 60 stitches and knit plain stockinette. Very elegant lace reminds me if spider’s web or chain link fence.
4/3 found size 3 short rosewood needles. Will take this scarf and toe other projects on vacation to Naples fl. Feel like light summer knitting in warmer weather.

8/19 frogged it and cast on 40 stitches will throw some beads every 10 rows. Only have one skein and would like it longer. This time I’m knitting in beautiful cabin in central Oregon with unbelievable views all around.
8/20 making a nice progress. Unfortunately have to leave this amazing place near Bend in central Oregon. Can see Three Sisters mountain range and mt Jefferson as a background to my beaded spider web scarf

DONE! A side note: I started knitting this scarf in March 2016 before Trump got his first term and finished when he got in for his second term.
