I started a new scarf on Thursday. I really wanted to start on
Levens designed by the very creative
Lily Kate France. I've been wanting to make it since I first saw
Amanda post about it. However Mother's Day is approaching and as much as I wanted to knit
Levens for my Mum I couldn't see her wearing it very much. So when I found myself adding 'buy a Mother's Day present from
Etsy' to my to do list I took the inner knitter in hand and gave her a little pep talk. There had to be a pattern out there I really wanted to knit that would fit with the yarn I had on hand here and my Mum's style. A quick browse through my favourites on
Ravelry and enter
Feather - I'm knitting it with sock yarn to get a skinnier scarf of the type I'm sure the recipient will love and I'm loving knitting it - definitely the right pattern for now and it means I can make a
Levens all for myself one day soon. Yay!
I'm off to sew a hankie after lunch - thank you everyone for the helpful comments, support, tips, empathy and sympathy after my last post. I'll let you know how the re-match goes ;o)

I love the double leaf swatch you have knitted. It will be a lovely scarf :D
Hope you had a lovely weekend!
