Strawberry Ishbel
My first knitting project out of self-spun yarn (but not my first Ishbel). I wanted to go for a well-tested pattern, and something where I didn't have to fear running out of yarn. This is a slightly modified version of the small size, with some added rows both in the stockinette and lace sections. It's pretty obvious in the finished product that the yarn has some uniformity issues, but I think it just adds character. Out of the thousands of Ishbels knitted, this one is almost certainly unique! It's too scratchy to be used as a scarf, but I'm OK with its only purpose being looking pretty.
