Discussion and Photos of our Works in Progress (Jan. & Feb.)

I started my wrap, I wanted something more lacy and this is what I came up with. This is what the temperature looked like back in January 1981.

So pretty!!! I can't wait to see how your scarf turns out because that's the year I was born.

Here's how my scarf/wrap looks, completed through Jan 27

Wow Shandeh that is beautiful Love the fringe.

I decided to use leftovers from previous projects that I had enough of. I was so excited about this, too, that I have knitted from January 1 to the 22nd already. Actually I am up to today, but I took the photo from what I had finished on the 22nd.
I can't believe how much fun this is!
oh - and because I am in a fairly temperate climate in the PNW, I decided to do increments of 5 degrees. What do you think?

Oh, that DOES look fun!

Thank you all for the sweet encouragement on my Bernat Denimstyle wrap!

The fringe is SO EASY, because I'm just leaving the ends free when I start and end each color change.
I'm going to wait and see how big it is at 6 months. If it's too long to just be half a wrap, I will bind off, then start another for the remaining 6 months of the year. My plan is to maybe, connect them along the unfringed sides, and make a nice, fringed lapghan.

That sounds like a cool idea. I am also making a wrap but using dk wt yarn & #3 needles but will also see how long at 6 mths & than may start another. Also we are trying to sell our house buy an rv and travel so hopefully will start a from the road version

Thank you, I almost finish the month of February. We had a very mild winter that year. What month were you born? I got married in June.
