In the middle of last winter, I promised Nicole, my Journey-obsessed cousin who spends most of her time in Pittsburgh, I would make her a hat or mittens. Or was it both. Except I’m a horrible cousin and never actually sent her said garments. Nor did I make any way towards making them until the very end of May when we got a really great bright yellow yarn in the shop. I instantly had an idea – make her a scarf in Steelers/Pirates/Penguins colors! It knit up pretty quick during our visit to Shenandoah National Park and I finally got he ends woven in a few days ago. So, Nicole, I’m sorry I’m a lying liar who lies but you’ll soon receive a scarf in the mail for all those cold August days in the Ohio River Valley. And, I promise, you’ll get a matching hat and fingerless gloves come actual winter (they’ll match each other, not the scarf, unless you want them that way).
