So this was, by far, the oldest UFO in my bag of work. It is finally done. It is a crochet granny "square" scarf made of Crystal Palace kid mohair (don't as me about the colourways, I lost the labels a long time ago. The pattern is a free one from Webcrochet designed by Kathy Merrick. It is made up of 69 motifs that are crocheted together one at a time as you go. I think it is beautiful and full of detail but man, it was a lot of work. BTW, if you want to see this one in person, go down to Make 1 Yarn studio in Calgary and take a gander, it'll be living there.

Mama made a brand new bag
Modeled by the ever-popular stink-butt, here is a finished felted granny square bag designed by Amy Swenson for a Crochet 101 class I just finished teaching. The yarn is Misti Merino and it took one trip in a pillow case in my front-loading washing machine. Stuff felts amazingly well. Stay tuned, Lucy's on a bit of a finishing kick right now.
