Montego Bay Scarf and Felted Purse

Finally pictures of my Montego Bay Scarf! I used Andrea Silk Yarn by Schaefer Yarn Company in the color Frida Kahlo. It's gorgeous. I can't wait to wear it to work this week. The pattern wasn't hard, but it was difficult to knit in such a light lace weight when I'm so used to using worsted weight.



And now I'm working on purses for my parents to sell in their booth at a local craft fair. I finished one small one all ready, and now I'm working on a slighly larger one. Deciding on pricing is so hard! I don't want to make them too expensive, but I do want to make some money on these. Of course if they don't sell they'll be Christmas gifts. I do love creating the felted flower. There's something really cool about using wool roving to create each piece and then to put them together on the purse - I just love it!

Happy Halloween!!!
