Day 254 of 2024

This scarf that I started in early August 
seems to be a one step forward, two steps back project. 
I had gone an inch and a half past the marker near the needle
 when I realized I had too many stitches on my needle. 
I tore it back to the offending spot. 
The tricky part is getting the three edge stitches put back on the needle correctly. 
I think it's too technical to describe here but just know that I struggle with it 
and there are mistakes in this piece which will hopefully not show 
when I wear it wrapped and knotted around my neck this fall and winter.

Day 227 of 2024

Not pictured in yesterday's photo was this lovely yarn I bought. 
I was looking specifically for yarn to make a scarf
 from this pattern which I already owned. 
I found this slate blue yarn made of merino, silk and yak. 
It is dreamy to touch. 
I wanted to get started on it before I left Seattle
 so a stop was made to buy the correct needle.
