Elm Row pattern knitted with Scout's Swag Peach Pit


Since I scored some of Scout's latest Swag colorway, I decided to knit the Elm Row pattern from Knitspot using the Peach Pit skein. I like this colorway because it's mellow, and has speckles of color in it. The yarn is soft and lightweight, perfect for a summer knit. I can't wait to wear it.



Here is what the pattern photo looks like finished:

I learned to DYE!


Wow! What a fun-filled + quality-packed weekend! I signed up a few months back for a Dye class being hosted & trained by the wonderful Scout from Scout's Swag. She is a great teacher, very informative, and very good and really trying to get you to understand the techniques & ways to make dying easier.



This was a 2 day class, Sat/Sun, and it was great fun! I died 2 skeins, one for self striping and one regular skein.



I can't wait to see if Scout continues class, if she'll develop an intermediate course?
