so this is the alpaca scarf i made for my friend koren (i just gave it to her this weekend) and it's basically ribbed except that one rib is stockingnet and the other are just garter stitch. it's hard to explain but once you see it, you'll get it. i must say that alpaca is very fun to knit with and i want to make myself something with it someday.

pattern: made it up
yarn: america's alpaca in creme color
needle: us 6 (i think)

anyone know how to get the pictures to line up next to each other?

i also saw garden state on friday. it was very funny and original and poignant and totally inspiring. zach braff did an amazing job on his first film and it makes me want to go out and create something. living in la and working in entertainment, i often get disillusioned with the amount of crap that hollywood can churn out. but when i see something good, it makes me believe in it again because people are taking risks and try to do something different. natalie portman was fantastic and her character is so unique. i think the movie is opening in more cities this week or already did. so go out and see it if you haven't. the soundtrack is great, too. it comes out tomorrow in stores. i heart zach braff.
