40 iconic hand-knit designs

Diana finished Alexandra's Airplane Scarf (pattern purchased on Ravelry). This is a fabulous Churchmouse Yarns and Teas patten that we knit out of Hedgehog Kidsilk Lace.

When Boston-based author and long-time Churchmouse friend Alexandra Dane was in Seattle, she stopped by the shop wearing a scarf that turned our heads. Alex’s perfect airplane project (both to knit and to wear!) is a sheer tube of lace-weight mohair you can style any number of ways. It’s just the kind of thing we love—simple, simple, simple, and all about the color! We’ve added an optional dusting of tiny beads for a little sparkle.

The scarf is super soft and cuddly. We used 2 skeins and the scarf is knit on 5mm, 60cm circular needles.

It's here!!! Wow. What a great book to put on your coffee table.

I've always wanted the Gameboard Jacket. I have part of the back finished from the original. I'm not sure where it is and I'm pretty sure that I didn't put away enough yarn for it. Above is the restyled version with the original below. I think I might be starting it again after Camp.
