On the Needles - purple madness

Two projects - both purple!

I had to order more purple yarn for the second yoke jacket - and rather than twiddle my thumbs I decided to start a scarf for Baby E's abuelita.

a little smushy now, but blocking will definitely help

This is an amazing free pattern that has a tiny cable at the cross section of each 'X' - it actually calls for a bead to be placed at the cross but I have no beads. Too bad so sad. 

Also, it is the same yarn that I used for Baby E's cardigan...on special request. Good think I had some left over! It should actually be just the perfect amount.

And as you might have noticed - this actually is no longer on needles but rather a pin because THE NEW YARN ET ARRIVE. I had to swap my needles over to start working on the cable for the second jacket.


Again, I plan on integrating a little colourwork - this time from yet another mitten pattern...why are there so many cool mittens?? These are plum blossom themed. Check out the pattern here.

yes, you will suit my Asian theme just beautifully, you plum blossom you
