I had an inquiry about where to mail scarves. There is an address listed on the Red Scarf Project site, but as one of the hosts of this knitalong, I would welcome receiving scarves and sending in one batch if you would prefer. To mail to me, contact me directly and we can make arrangements.
So, I have several skeins of a nice cherry red Inca Alpaca that has been languishing and was going to be maybe a scarf, then maybe a shawl, then maybe a sweater. I am changing gears and pulling some of it out of the stash to knit one of the two patterns found here:
Scarf for Matthew and Scarf for Matt


[I'll link to these in the side bar as well.]
The pattern is two variations based on the same structure, and has options for multiple weights of yarn. Plus, I like the fact that they were designed and circulated as a symbol of acceptance. Maybe I’ll include a note with my scarf explaining the symbolism.

I think I will be using this pattern, which was recently advertised in the Gift issue of Interweave Knits. It kind of reminds me of my mom, and since she’s not here to give it to anymore, giving it to charity will make me feel good.
P.S. I did signup for a wordpress username, which I guess I will use when I post progress on the scarf?
