The winter 2003\/04 issue of Vogue Knitting arrived in the post today. I had been eagerly awaiting it since I read Rob’s<\/a> review of the scarf patterns. They’re not all “cast on X stitches, knit every row until you run of yarn” patterns, there are some nice ones in there.<\/p>\n

I’ve only had a flick through so far but have fallen in love with “Back-Street Blues”. Nice fitted cardi with fringey trimmed sleeves. Who knew it was knitted from Colinette?! Excellent! I may have to add some Prism and Tagliatelli to my Colinette order to make this now!<\/p>\n

Muppet scarf – I do love those frivolous eyelash scarves. I only have the Online Linie one and a Fluff one so far though. Once I have a hoard of them I’ll probably be sick of them! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

In case anyone wanted the pattern, such as there is one. The Muppet Scarf took one 50g ball of Online Linie 85 knitted on size 5mm needles. I just cast on 20 stitches and kept knitting until a few yards remained. Cast off loosely. I used bamboo needles as they grip the slippery eyelash yarn better. It goes without saying that you can use any kind of eyelash yarn for these scarves. <\/p>\n

I saw one today made from a combination of a soft chenille or soft wool yarn with an eyelash yarn. You alternated the two yarns every two rows. It was made by a woman called Sarah who lives in South Africa. She said that it produced a very drapey scarf. Sounds a bit like Knitty’s<\/a> Rock Star Scarf but using the yarns over fewer rows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
