My main wish for June was to complete the red knitted scarf I started at the beginning of our holiday. Happily, I can report that it was completed before we returned home last Wednesday.
Let's recap.
I bought this lovely red sock yarn at the Heritage Trades Trail back in early April.
I started knitting it while watching Mick play bowls at Cowra, as it was nice and portable.
I continued to do a few rows most days, but definitely not every day. It was something I could work on while we were visiting friends and chatting.
I took just a couple of "in progress" shots while out and about. Just a small taste of some of the places we visited. There will be more as I get my posts written.
Rockhampton at the end of May.
This is at Moura.
And another at Carnarvon Gorge.
It was finished while having a lazy day near Warialda. Probably all places you have never heard of.
Once back home it was time to style it on my lovely old dressmaker's dummy.
A bit of fun trying the different styles. The first is how I will probably wear it most often.
Now it has been packed away with the other four I have made using this pattern. You can tell that they work well for me.

Lovely scarves. What is the pattern name please?
Great scarf, fun to see it being done in different places.

That's a cheery warm colour, a good addition to your collection. Love the idea of photographing it in different places, makes a change from a stuffed toy or something similar!
I love it and did recognise Carnarvon Gorge too.
I love it and red is such a good winter colour not to mention perfect for a white Christmas
It is a great design and you have a lovely collection in different colours. xx
Love the red..Perfect project to work on while on your travels.
When you find something that works, you go with it. Another lovely finish.
