Oh I almost forgot I've been searching for the mobeius scarf pattern I think it's called can't remember the name but it takes just one skein of kids silk to make and it can be worn several different ways if your familar with it. A free pattern that you may see if fine with me too. Of if someone can direct me in the right palce. When we were in Ohio I seen the scarf in the knitting garden shop but all out of patterns, just my luck! I didn't sign up for the mailing because I'm so far away so dumb me can't even email and ask for a copy.
Anyone want to swap or something, RAOK for RAOK, anything...Let me know - Anyone!
I really need to make a few gifts and I want one for myself of course....

So far I've found a number of free patterns for moebius scarves. What they all have in common is that you need to know how to do the special moebius cast on (MCO) that is explained in Cat Bordhi's books on Magical Knitting. I have book 1, Treasury of Magical Knitting.
I just used yarn that I had in my stash. Got it years ago from a local spinner/wholesaler at a parking lot sale for $3.00/lb. No idea what brand it is if it isn't theirs (Yarn Country). It's a nice dark charcoal chenille.
After looking through Cat's book, I decided to do a simple knit 2 rows, purl 2 rows pattern after casting on 200 stitches.
I think your kid silk would make a *gorgeous* moebius!
