A Gift
Brace yourselves for I am about to show you some finished knitting for the second day in a row. Don’t worry, though, I’m sure it won’t become a habit. Nevertheless, here we have a finished Lace Ribbon Scarf.
Apparently every picture I take these days is modeled on the sled by my back door. Claudia says it’s festive and that works for me.
Want to see a little bit closer? Please note the lovely stripes and crispness of the lace pattern. What yarn is it, you ask? Well, the fiber is Gale’s Art BFL that I bought at Maryland Sheep & Wool this past May. Which would mean that this yarn is my handspun. Let me clarify – it’s my handspun singles.
I bet that makes you want to see even closer. Right?
I have given the scarf to my dear friend Blogless Sharon for her birthday. I figure that only another spinner can really appreciate a gift knit from handspun singles and I still feel bad about going to Maryland without her. The grin on her face when I gave it to her last night makes me think that she has forgiven me.

The scarf is beautiful…and out of your own handspun singles – that is truly a special gift. I am sure Sharon loves it!
Handspun and singles = beautiful, beautiful scarf and a lucky and appreciative friend.

It’s beautiful! Sharon is so lucky.
The scarf is wonderful. I have purchased a skein of homespun yarn once on ebay. While we may not all be able to spin, knitters have a true appreciation for the art of spinning and feel very fortunate when they are able to knit with it. This scarf was pretty enough for an Eye Candy Friday.
That is so lovely! It makes me want to give a go with knitting my singles.
Very beautiful! Indeed.
Beautiful! You have a lucky friend.
WOW! It´s very beautiful.
