A work colleague recently left NZ to move with his young family back to the U.K. I felt badly that he was leaving the emerging warmth of summer here to head into a very snowy and cold winter in England. Not the best timing, but the universe offered a job in a difficult economy.
He and I shared both the same chiropractor as well as an inclination to get into the office at the crack of dawn, so we'd had quite a few early morning chats. I decided the least I could do would be to knit him a scarf as a belated farewell gift. Of course in our company color:
I'm knitting it in Manos del Uruguay's Wool Clasica in a buttery golden yellow (color Z), which is working really well. The pattern is Allison Isaac's So Called Scarf, available on ImagiKnit's website. It's pictured in Manos Silk Blend on her website. I bought the yarn from South Seas Knitting.
It's coming Mark. I won't have it finished in time for Christmas, but I'll have it posted off in time for January, the cruelest month. I've heard the latest weather reports in the U.K. and wish you all the best.
