Exciting New Beginning

Last night I finished the knitting on the last modified by me, Reynas that I have planned with the yarns I have on hand. Of course, weaving in the ends and blocking are yet to happen but they will soon because those pieces are destined for eBay listings.

So, with Netflix on, I finished the newly released episodes of The Lincoln Lawyer, I started the next pattern in a series of planned projects. I am changing skills this time. This pattern is crocheted rather than knitted. I have crocheted longer than knitted so it is a bit like coming home to a friend. I really do enjoy the rhythm of the hooked stitches being worked and I haven't done much crocheting since I worked on market bags and some potholders.

The pattern this time is Summer Sprigs Lace Scarf by Esther Chandler which is a free download on Ravelry. The scarf starts with a long, an oh so very long, chain, 386+1 stitches. I have single crocheted across the chain and have begun the first patterned row which I think gives the scarf it's sprigs that are in the pattern name. The pattern is written for lace weight yarn but in the projects, I found that someone did it with Summer Nights by Lion Brand Yarn. Searching for patterns made with that yarn is what led me to this lovely pattern. It has over 500 projects recorded on Ravelry and lots more have been made I am sure because like me many yarnies may never get around to recording their projects. I think about it and then never get around to doing that.

So today I leave you with this question. What new beginning has been a part of your life that gave you a sense of excitement and joy? Large or small beginnings, doesn't matter, it is the joy and excitement that I would love for you to share in a comment.

Back with more again soon. 
Take care and stay cozy!
