At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Oh, yeah, at last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clovers
The night I looked at you
I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to rest my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Oh, yeah when you smile, you smile
Oh, and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine
At last

October has been a month full of new surprises and long anticipated realizations.
We have discovered a new land and realized a long time dream by purchasing our someday-to-be new home in the wilds of Northern Michigan.
Conner has learned to walk! and that is both a surprise (as to the timing) and a long anticipated development.
Two new designs (Innisfree and Chinoise) have popped unexpectedly out of my fevered designer's brain, and two old ones (Rustica and Sugar Snap) have reached fruition.
Wait a minute...
Hold the phone...
And the knitting needles...
Sugar Snap is done?
That
The one that has been languishing in the knitting basket since last February?
Yeah, THAT one.
It seems like a spring pattern to me, so I was going to hold it until next March, but there have been so many avid knitters that wanted it N-O-W, I just couldn't hold out any longer.
SUGAR SNAP SCARF
$6
SIZE:
12 inches wide by 65 inches long
MATERIALS:
3 skeins (600 yds.) Fibre Co. Canopy Fingering
Color: Paw Paw
Size 4 (US) needles
GAUGE:
5 stitches = 1 inch (blocked)
suitable for intermediate to experienced lace knitter
double-sided lace
charted design
uses fingering/sport weight yarn
It's obvious why I named it sugar snap; don't the bobbles look like little peas and the background lace like pods?
This is actually a fairly quick knit for a complicated lace pattern. Although the pattern repeat is larger than some, the pattern is very predictable: one of those move-it-one-stitch-over-each-row kind of things.
The Canopy has a lovely drape and the heavier weight makes it much easier to keep track of your stitches.
BIG snaps all around!
