After assessing the amount of yarn I had, I determined that I did not have enough to make a scarf, which was my original plan. Spinning yarn takes a very long time, and creating enough for a large garment would be pretty difficult for a beginner. I have so much respect for the people of the past who made all of their clothes by spinning yarn and thread.
I decided to make a neck warmer, serving the same purpose as a scarf, with less excess fabric.
This is a picture of me knitting the neck warmer. I have been knitting for a few years, but for this project I used a stitch I had never tried before, and I really like how it turned out.
Obviously, the current weather does not require any such garment, but I am very excited to use my neck warmer next year in the mountains when I'm attending Appalachian!
