'No, Seriously, One Skein' Circle Scarf Pattern

This is the once-beautiful skein of ultra-soft yarn that resided at the bottom of a yarn stash for an undermined amount of time with no tag to indicate yardage, die lot, company name, or anything else indicative of where to go to buy more, how long ago it was made, or how much there is. The last time I was in possession of such a hopeless tangled mess it was a skein of worsted I bought at Target when I was nine. I was knitting a pillow at the time so I just shredded it and used it for stuffing. But this is nice stuff.

Materials:

1 Skein of bulky yarn

Size 11 circular needles.

Loosely CO 96 sts

Row 1: *K3, P3; repeat from * to end. Join in the round.

Repeat rows 1-6 until you run out of yarn. BO. Weave in tails.

A Fuzzy Shoe

Yesterday I made these: Flip-Flop covers. A fun way to use up novelty yarn I bought on a whim. I made them as another cover for my Switch Flops . The project started out well. They even ended up the same size as all my other covers. I was feeling pretty good about the project. When I finished knitting them it was kind of late, so I waited to find some Velcro until today. That's when I found the bump in the road. This morning I started looking for Velcro. I knew we had some in the craft closet, I even remembered putting it there. Unfortunately, all we have is the fuzzy part, which is already covering the flip-flop straps. What I needed was the scratchy part. Okay, I admit it I know nothing about Velcro. I kept on looking but all I found was more of the wrong have. The good thing about the craft closet is that it holds all the remnants of failed projects through the years. That may sound depressing, but really it's a positive thing. I stumbled, literally, across one of V...
