Close to You Hand Knit Scarf #3 in Blue-Green Variegated Yarn

I love knitting this scarf. This is the 3rd one I have knit. It uses fingering weight yarn and looks great in so many colors and types of yarn. The first one I knit was an alpaca/wool blend in a soft variegated pastel blue-violet colors. Then I knit a solid pink 100% alpaca one and this one is a wool/acrylic blend. 

On the first one I knit, I followed the picot bind off, but the last 2 I did a regular bind off without the picot edge. It was much easier and I personally didn't think the picot added anything to the scarf. This is a free pattern if you want to knit your own scarf. You can find the pattern here on Ravelry.

I am starting a different knit scarf tonight. I just finished a hat knit with cables last night. Happy Knitting and keep warm.

Diagonal Lace Scarf

This is the diagonal lace scarf I finished. It's a free pattern online, where you actually get 2 free patterns on one pdf here. Last week I posted a few photos of this scarf as it soaked in hair conditioner before blocking it. So here it is finished. Even though I blocked this scarf twice and I knit a garter stitch edge on all four sides, it still wants to curl in. Oh well I will be wearing it like the last 2 photos anyhow.

It's a long scarf, but I like to be able to wear it several ways.

Here you can see the diagonal lace knitting and the blues and purples of this variegated yarn.

I like the option of wrapping the scarf around a couple of times to give it a different look.

Here it looks like a cowl.
