Secret Satan Scarf

Our work Secret Santa this year was 'green'. We were not allowed to buy anything to give, but had to either make something or 're' present. Even if we made something it had to be made from things we already had around the house. This made for very interesting gifts, including a gorgeous bottle of home-made limoncello, a range of home-made chutneys, a Chinese calender and some compost. I knitted this scarf from left over kid silk haze and some gorgeous hand-dyed mohair I bought from Skye on a trip with Glittr. She'll remember the shop! It's a simple home-made pattern in a kind of easy lace, with a strand of mohair and a strand of kid silk haze held together- I alternated blocks of different coloured kid silk haze, including Candy, Marmalade and Lilac. It was gratefully recieved ;)
