FO: Peppa Scarf

Happy New Year!  I hope that 2017 is treating you well so far! I'm doing good. It's just that... time flies!

Last December, I've started a scarf for my daughter.  I bought the yarn from a new independent dyer who also happen to be a friend in my knitting group.  On Facebook, you may follow her as Colorista. The yarn I bought from her is really soft and the colors were amazing!  I recommend it!

Also, for the first time, I've knitted something without a pattern. I know, a scarf is just a scarf but still, I'm quite proud of myself. I searched for a simple scarf pattern for a baby/toddler on Ravelry and I was not able to find one I liked (maybe there are just too many patterns on Ravelry).  Just to know how many stitches to cast on and how long I should make it.  So, I've decided to write it down and share with anyone who does like to simply follow a pattern, no matter how simple the knitting is.

I have to say I really like it.  It is pretty and practical, soft and warm! I named it the Peppa Scarf if you would like to look for it on Ravelry!



You can see my project page on Ravelry for more details.

I hope that winter will come to an end soon.  Scarves are great but summer is better!  Happy knitting (and mostly good night)!

Like it a LOT! Congrats on putting out there your first pattern! Just curious about the name...is it from Peppa Pig? That was a big hit in my house last year. I loved their accent...:-)

Oh how pretty! I like this alot - simple yet elegant. And the color is wonderful. Isn't it nice when you know the dyer personally?

I've knitted most of the scarf watching Peppa Pig. I think Peppa is a sweet name. At first, I didn't like the cartoon but now, I think it is cute and funny!

Yes, it was a pleasure to knit and knowing her, I had no doubt about the quality of the yarn when I bought it!
