Working thru the stash... not working.

So lately I've been on a completely selfish and guilty gift-less knitting spree, knitting personal project after personal project late into the night and plotting for more.  I felt better after giving away my beautiful thick woolen lace scarf (not pictured) to a friend last night, however, much colder against the prevailing winds on the new bike. I really need to get ON those x-mas gifts. 
 
Anyway, the latest has been a thin scarf, mostly for show, I can't imagine any warmth being provided from this baby.  I'm using the "Loop Lace" pattern off of Knitty's hat "Pinky" for the ends... who knows what will happen in between... (meaning I've yet to decide and knit and ripped out stitch after stitch of ideas never creating one that truly works with the lace)... its a mystery!!

The yarn I'm using is Artful Yarns' "reality" which cost me a pretty penny from the local textile shop Yarnworks (adorable little shop in Gainesville, if you ever visit, GO THERE!) but it was worth every cent.  Maybe this can become a christmas present?  I think I'm more fearsome of parting with the yarn than with the scarf, and thats bound to happen anyway.

Ah well, I'm off to face to world!  Rico doesn't say goodbye but purrs emphatically...
Ciao Chicos!
