The scarf looks great and I love the amaryllis. I left mine in Australia and haven’t replaced them yet.

Best of luck with your project. I hope it goes very well for you.
Your flowers are beautiful. I love amaryllis flowers. If you are careful with it, you should be able to keep it for quite a few years.
The scarf looks very cozy.

What a gorgeous photo. How cheerful they seem — and the image of them standing by the window watching the snow. Love it.

I just wanted to thank you for the scarf pattern. I just started it in a deep red Suri Merino. It’s working up beautifully. Thanks again.

hi,
am i missing something? it looks jumbled up, no “ribs” at all. would someone who have made this scarf offer help please : ) is the pattern correct? the pictures are beautiful..logging on your site is like going to the spa without leaving my desk! keep it up!
the scarf is beautiful. i really want to make it but yesterday i tried the pattern and it doesn’t look like your scarf at all

Carrie-
i am just starting this scarf and noticed that if you follow the pattern as it is written, you will end up with two purls at the end of row three, which means row four will not be able to start with K3, but rather would would have to start with K2. To make it into ribs, you would have to either add three stitches to the cast-on, or subtract two-just so the third row will end up with the three knits so when you do row four, the pattern will be *P3, K2*; so basically, for each row, you knit the knits and purl the purls.
does that make sense?

Thanks for your wonderful stories and lovely pictures. What cottage did you stay in when you went to Clayton,it looks so countyish and rustic?!We’d love to go there soon. And I also tried your scarf(which is gorgeous!)but following the pattern it’s not coming out right,please help! I’d like to make it for my son also. Thanks for your time…have a beautiful day!

Kathleen was correct, the pattern had an error in it. I have corrected it now (31 Oct 07). My apologies!
Best,

I am working on this scarf right now and really like it. However, it is curling on both edges. Any suggestions to fix the scarf from curling?

My bed of red amyrillas have been in my family for more than 50 years!! They originally belonged to an aunt who was born in 1905. They have been in my posession for about 23 years. I have harvested and replanted the bulbs 3 different times after purchasing new homes the last one being 14 years ago. They are thriving!!!

Hi,
I am just starting out but do not like any of the beginner patters but love yours. Would it be too difficult for a beginner to try? If not, would it be possible to get step by step instructions on how to get started. Thanks!

absolutely wonderful, i’ll be trying that patterns

Great pattern – thanks alot – only comment is the end result turned out a little thinner than I anticipated so for those who want a wider scarf, adding more stitches and getting an extra ball of yarn might be worth it. Looking forward to the reaction from the guy I will give it to. Thanks again!
