Teacher's Gifts!

One thing I love most about knitting, is knitting gifts for people.  I truly enjoy it and honestly hope the recipient likes the gift.  But if not, I am ok with that too.

End of school year is always busy, so I try to plan out my teacher gift giving early so I can get things done.
This year I wanted to try making some lace scarfs for a couple of teachers.  Here is my first ever lace scarf.  Made with 100% Merino Araucania Botany Lace made in Italy and in a very stunning orange colour.

I had fun making this chevron pattern as well as blocking the scarf to show off the pattern detail.  Here is the pattern if anyone is looking for it. Pearl-barred Scalloed Scarf  and it is free!
