Hexagon Madness

 I have been so stressed lately that I am trying much unable to focus on much of anything.  So many pretty projects lie waiting to be finished.

 So coming back to making these again, albeit in two different colorways was like seeing an old friend. And after a mad start at 2 in the morning, I was already well under way.

All the way back in May of 2011, I started making them the first time, and then finished a scarf. Easy to make, and so quick I feel so relieved which helps. Plus they make me so happy!!

Yarn: Noro Kirameki, 164 A and 156 B
Pattern: Hexagon How To by Lucy of Attic24

Noro Kirameki Scarf

A while ago,after loving virtually every pattern on Ravelry made with this tutorial, Hexagon-How To, made by Attic24 (this is seriously an amazing blog, so creative and colorful). Then several days afterward I saw this scarf on Pintrest and couldn't get it out of my mind. I put the two ideas together, coupled with a recent addition of Noro Kirameki yarn and began making a little scarf. I really shouldn't have begun another project, considering how many I have but some how this one wouldn't let me be... I just couldn't resist. :)

Anyhow, I really did need something that was portable enough that I didn't need a pattern and this one, fits smartly into my purse, and after making the second hexagon already had it memorized. As for the half hexagons, I made up my own pattern.

I really think I will add a picot border along the edges, but I am unsure of the color...

brown? black? gray? white?

Not sure yet.

It is enormously satisfying to make these little guys. They are like instant gratification, and since I have been short on time, it makes me feel like I am actually accomplishing something.

I have been doing roughly one to two a day. Little by little it is getting bigger.

:)

Hoping your life is going great.
