At the moment I’m down with a nasty cold and more or less had to spend all week in bed. After feeling absolutely miserable for the first few days I’m somewhat better now and also rather bored. To make time pass faster I did a lot of knitting. I finished those 9 to 5 socks, [...]

Here is the scarf I finished a couple of days ago. I’m calling it smokey wave scarf ’cause with those different shades of gray it looks a little bit like swirling smoke. Smokey Wave Scarf The pattern is my own invention, though I guess I’m probably not the first to knit such a scarf. Anyway [...]
