Itty Bitty Scarves...

I missed Tuesday’s knitting night (whinge, moan, laryngitis, chest infection, whinge moan), but read the KnitCambridge blog about this.

The other day I spun up the silk hankies I bought on holiday in N Wales. I’m not right good at handling such fine, sticky silk – my hands are much too rough – although just getting stuck in and doing it made me realise that it’s a much more forgiving activity than I’d thought. Anyway, I was left with a diddy little ball of scrumptious, but very slubby (designer, yummy slub of course) golden silk. I wanted to do something with it, so thought of the Ginger Essence scarves. Having checked the website, they define Christmas colours as red, green or gold.

So here are 5 itty bitty, golden, handspun, silk scarves, just waiting to be sent off:

Too cute. Does it mean you get free bottles of Ginger Essence? Hope so.

Those are wonderful. wonder whether they’ll wing their way back to Robert Sayle*?
