SOS

I know that SOS is supposed to be a distress call meaning "Save Our Ship", but today it means "Sick of Snow". I'm thinking of Spring. I am officially tired of snowplows, slick roads and salt pellets that are impossible to keep off the kitchen floor.

Here's to Spring... a new scarf pattern that is more sassy than warm. It's called Sensational Spirals.

This one is quick to crochet - it was a weekend project last weekend amid the NFL playoff games and lots of interruptions, so that should tell you that it is a quick project. Only basic stitches are used. It's worked in rows until you get the to the end, then it's joined into rounds to create the "cupping" above the tassels, and finally the tassels themselves.

The tassels are a fun finishing touch!

The yarn I used is Aslan Trends Glaciar Del Cielo in colorway #03 Petal. It's a sportweight cotton that I picked up last summer at Yarn in Hutchinson, KS (this shop is a coffee shop, too, so it's a real treat to step in the door and be surrounded by wonderful fibers, good company, AND some tempting aromas).

More treats to come soon... stay tuned and keep knitting (and/or crocheting)!
