Knit-in

Yesterday I made my first trip to the Calgary Farmers' Market.  I'll be back one day for lots of fresh veggies, meat and treats. This visit, however, was to join the knitalong in support for the Calgary branch of Inn From Cold

I knew that I was at the right place when I saw the giant ball of yarn and the sign on the table:


They are in need of mittens, toques, socks, etc.  I'll be knitting more things for them in the future, but for now I decided to make a quick scarf, my Wibble Wobble Scarf.  I found an interesting yarn in the bargain bin at Gina Brown's.  It's Adriafil Impulso Trends, an aran weight.  I may have to go back and get a couple more skeins for a scarf for myself.  I like the way it's turning out:


I had hoped to finish in time to turn it in at the knitalong.  I'll drop it off the next time I go the market as the need for warm clothes, blankets and accessories is ongoing.

I had to smile when I saw this "rhythm of the needles" sign on one of the tables!  Did you notice the misspelling?
