We've offically begun Spring Break. As usual my group has started the holiday off with a bang. Left to right we have Hunter (sick), Olivia (sick) and Jolie (sick). Not in the picture is Parker, who is also sick but still up and moving. We have a doctor appt today for the younger three as we think Olivia probably has just a quickie virus, feverish yesterday she is cool today. Time will tell. Thankfully we had no plans for the holiday other than celebrating Dad's birthday on Sunday.
Progress on the project is being made though slowly. This is a "North Star" scarf pattern from the "Arctic Lace" book. Beautiful Eskimo based patterns all made with Musk Ox fiber. I'm not using that fiber though I'd love to at some point in time. (The Musk Ox fiber comes dearly at $80 a skein, locally.)
The pattern repeat is 55 rows. What I have in this picture is about 45 rows and it measures about 6". This Cashmere yarn is very fine and delicate. Makes you think the finished project will probably float in the air if thrown up. Amazingly lightweight.
