I’m posting from my old PC laptop as my iMac had coniptions yesterday and decided to go slooooooooooow and then freeze up! It’s now awaiting the ministrations of the computer doctor and hopefully will be fixed by next week.

However, when I started this blog on 11th April last year my goal was to post every day so I’m hoping that I can stick to that.

I’m back to knitting another twirly whirly spiral scarf using the yarn I bought at the Cobbity Market wool stall. Here’s my progress so far. This yarn knits up so prettily. It has the same colors as my last one except that it’s missing the deep blue and purple shown here.

Yesterday I finished my spiral scarf and I’m very happy with it. I used two balls of the Noro Silk Garden Lite (125m on each) and I think that it’s a great length.

I’ve had quite a few comments and emails asking about patterns for the Spiral Scarf. I’ve knitted this scarf before and I’m using a generic pattern where you work out for yourself how many stitches you want and then calculate the rest from there. However, for those of you who would like a pattern here are some links. The first ones are commercial patterns for sale – albeit only  $4.65 and the others are freebies. The list contains both knitted and crocheted scarf patterns.

Spiral Scarf Patterns for sale:

Knitted spiral scarf

Crocheted Spiral Scarf

Susi Swirls Scarf

Free Spiral Scarf Patterns

The Bebop Party Corkscrew Pattern

The Eros and Athena Scarf

The Whirlygig Scarf

How to knit a spiral scarf

Hannah’s Crocheted Cotton Chenille Spring Ruffle Scarf

The Crocheted Flirty Corkscrew Scarf

Washington Post Spiral Scarf Pattern

Interestingly some patterns have a few stitches and knit lots and lots of rows and some patterns have lots of stitches and knit just a few rows. I can’t speak crochet so I don’t get how those pattern work, sorry.

Anyway have fun with these.

Yesterday I visited Morris & Sons in Sydney to “ooh and aah” over the lovely yarns they have there. I couldn’t resist this Noro Silk Garden Lite. (45% Silk, 45% Kid Mohair, 10 % Lamb’s Wool)

Who would have thought that something that looked like this on the outsidecould look like this on the inside?

And this is what it looks like knitted into my spiral scarf.

Thank you to everyone who gave me suggestions re the Appliqué Sampler. You’ve certainly given me a lot to think about. I’ll let you know when I decide what my next step will be.
