Alpaca Lt Gray Superlong

Here is a much, much skinnier version of the latest scarf I am making. It’s ooohhh so soft, in a way that probably just does not translate well on to a flat computer screen

Dark Turquoise Superlong Scarf (fall’09)

I am in the process of ugrading the photos. (I admitely am not a photographer) but here is what I have so far of the scarf. I will be making several of them for Fall. (It is in a color that will go very well with what is slated to go into stores this Fall.

Knitting Machine

This is what my knitting machine looks like. I know it was made by Brother, and that the company does not make them anymore. They are still made by other companies, but can also be picked up “pre-owned” ;)

Paraffin wax, is also apparently needed, to wax the yarn. It keeps static from building up, and everything working as it should. However, the mini block that is usually used with it was missing. I looked online, and found that a general block of paraffin wax can be used, which was admittedly still tough to find. I also heard that the wax needs to be undyed, so skateboard/surfboard wax is not what you should use (because of the dye).

A super-nice lady at Home Depot (the second store I tried) called around to a few stores in the area to finally locate it at ACE Hardware. They held it behind the counter, and I drove out there, happy to finally be able to find it. Mission Accomplished.
