WIP Wednesday: Green Seed Stitch Scarf

Wednesday isn't quite over yet (at least not here in Wisconsin), so I figured I should share my progress on the green scarf! 

As you can see, I have gotten quite a bit done and will be finished very soon! The plan was to do a cowl with this, originally, but it wound up being a bit wider than I originally anticipated. What I'm going to do in order to remedy that is sew it in half and still go with the cowl - that way, it will be doubly warm, and doubly soft! I am really excited about the project, and hope that it winds up as good as I hope it will. 

One of the things I love about knitting, or just making things in general, is that you never know what can happen with the simplest of ideas! 

WIP Wednesday: Green Seed Stitch Scarf

In case you aren't familiar, WIP stands for Work-In-Progress. Since it is the middle of my prime knitting season, I have been working on a handful of projects, and have gone from one to another relatively quickly! 

I finished a black and gray striped scarf on Saturday, and started a new one right away. This one is a bit wider than what I usually make, but I thought it would be great to make a cowl that could be folded in half and wrapped a couple of times, and with how soft this new yarn is, no matter what I do with it, it should be great! 

I used the seed stitch, and am using two different colorways of the Lion Brand Heartland yarn, in Kings Canyon (dark) and Joshua Tree (light).  As someone who likes natural fibers a great deal, this is a wonderful yarn for being 100% acrylic. It is very soft, and very easy to work with. It seems like it would be very wearable without being too itchy.

Stop back next week to see how far I get!
