Autumn Henslowe

Blue Leaves Finale
I finally finished the Blue Leaves shawl/scarf. Yay! I really think I’m liking it as a wide scarf, now that I’ve worn it several times. (And no, it’s not even blocked yet.) This is definitely my new favorite. And of … Continue reading

Blue Leaves
I know, leaves don’t really come in this color – but I’m a blue girl. When I’m not wearing black or brown, that is. And this item should fit right into my wardrobe. The Thrifty Knitter’s Woodland Shawl pattern is … Continue reading
