Aloha Eyelet Kerchief
Happy Memorial Day! As a quick little project I decided to cast on the Plumknit Eyelet Kerchief. Gwen loves headbands right now and she is missing wearing her pretty yarn hats of winter. So I purchased some of Cynthia’s Bamboo Yarn, handdyed by Angelina of Zen String. This is a ribbon yarn and I loved the novelty of knitting with something that isn’t round. Plus Angelina is one of my favorite dyers. Here is the yarn:
When Gwen saw it, she smiled and said “what pretty yarn.” That’s my girl 
And here is the work in progress:
It has a crocheted chain to fasten the kerchief. I’m a bit nervous about that as I don’t know how to crochet. I’m really enjoying these sweet and simple projects though. I’m trying to knit down my stash too, cause it has gotten a bit out of hand. I’m hoping I can go for quite awhile without buying any more yarn. Hopefully it won’t be too hard to hang onto the wagon.
