Persimmon

Technical info: I knitted this scarf and then added Jacquard Acid Dye in Pink. It’s a vivid dye, so it didn’t tone down the brightness of the original yellow as much as the other colors did. As usual, I threw in a small ball of extra yarn so I’d have some for any future hole repairs in a matching dye lot. (This is a hint to my sisters: hold onto that ball when you get your scarf! The way to mothproof your woolens is to have angora nearby; the moths will go after the angora first every time.)

I took the pile of scarves to my knitting group tonight. I can show off all the pictures I want here, but there’s nothing quite like having a room full of knitters swooning over the feel of the things.
