In my last post, I wrote about working on Isabell Kraemer's "Caramel" blanket cardigan using Cascade Ecological. It has turned out to be one of my favourite pieces - cozy and comfortable, yet stylish. What I have discovered in the past year is that I love Isabell Kraemer's designs. All her patterns strike a balance been style and functionality. Although I tend to shy away from large projects, such as adult sized sweaters, I am currently working on Kraemer's Driftwood sweater, which I will write about when that sweater is complete.
To break up the monotony of knitting a sweater, I often take a break with a smaller project and when I discovered Kraemer's "Muh-Muh's" scarf pattern,
I knew it was time to put Driftwood aside for the time being. I
originally intended to make this scarf as a Mother's Day present for my
one and only. However, shortly after casting on, I realized it would be
too overwhelming for my mom who's slight in build and barely 5 feet
tall. But, it was perfect for me! 
Never having used Lion's Pride Woolspun (bulky weight) before, I must admit that I quite like it. It's soft and spongy in texture and has an interesting twist to it. There's just enough acryllic in it to keep its shape and give it a light bounce. I completed the scarf in a record five days and realized that I had to make one for my best friend Melana. I created her scarf in a blue and purple scheme and boxed it up just in time for her birthday.
And now it's back to Driftwood. I have one arm and half a torso to go. I hope to finish it and post it soon.
