desert seascape




the new knitty has been up for a little bit, and while most of the patterns don't really appeal to me, this one caught my eye. adam and i may be living in the desert next year, which forces a shift from knitting montreal-appropriate items.

i'm thinking about a gorgeous blue or green silk laceweight yarn for this - knitting lace scarves are some of my favorites! the yardage is so few that nice yarn is affordable, and it always fits.

a quick etsy search turns up some glorious choices, a soy lace-weight dyed in "sea-glass" or a silk/cashmere blend in "oceanic gaia", both by dragonflyfiberdesign.

. . . . camp shipping . . . ?
