Inspiration has lately been coming from the stash. And, as in the case of this garter stitch striped scarf, also from the wonderful book Humans of New York. [Somewhere near the back, in the last few pages, a woman outside Carnegie Hall, I think. I’d have to go look again. Go get the book and flip to the back, you’ll see it.] Finding that photo--in a book not about knitting or yarn or scarves--and then finding these two yellow yarns sitting fortuitously beside one another, the darker one of which is a leftover from a years-ago requested and long-gone pair of Hufflepuff socks, has triggered this project. Nice and plain, with color. Yarn! You rock.

When this is gone, the tapestry granny thingy will be finished. So close!
Also stash:
A cardigan for me, in a light-sucking brown yarn the color of Hershey bars. The sleeves are already finished, and I noticed, too late to do anything but rip them out and start over which I have decided not to do, that I had knit the stitch pattern incorrectly. Well, who cares, it’s a brown cardigan, the 2013 version of my Annual Brown Cardigan. When winter really gets here, I’ll do the next predictable thing and make a gray one. The yarn is already—wait for it—in the stash. Also, it snowed.
