It's a hooded scarf with a great big tassel knit in my Julia Wool/Mohair/Alpaca. Once again, I mixed up the patterns - a simple diamond Fair Isle with some embroidered flowers. Striped edges are easy and fun.
Look for it at your yarn or book store.
Here's a detail of the embroidery......
Have a colorful weekend and hope to see some of you at Webs on Saturday night - 5 p.m.
beautiful! i just love it!
ReplyDeleteI adore hooded scarfs. I like your design and colors. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work as always! I'll see you Saturday!
ReplyDeleteWonderful pattern on pattern. I love how you mix traditional textile motifs with the pop of embroidery.
ReplyDeleteVery inspiring.
Awesome hooded scarf!
ReplyDeleteAnd it happens to be modeled by my very favorite knitwear model, who used to grace the pages of Interweave Knits. Haven't seen her there in a long while.
I'm working on a tiny sweater for my sister's newborn girl (she came a bit early, thus the preemie-sized sweater), and I'm thinking this would be a great little sweater to embellish with a bit of embroidery to make it special...
Beautiful work. I really like the colorful embroidery.:) ~Salina
ReplyDeleteDiane's favorite model is Pam Allen's daughter Caitlin Fitzgerald who is professional model. When Pam was editor of Interweave Knits Caitlin appeared in Interweave's books and magazines more frequently. Pam is now creative director for Classic Elite Yarns, a job which -- coming full circle -- was first held by our very own Kristin!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous. I love all of the Pam Allen and Ann Budd books. Your scarf is surely one I will put on my to do list post holiday!
