....and preschool is over for ever. I asked my son if he is gonna miss everyone and said "NO" pointing to his head, "i have got everyone up here." Too cute, I don't think the poor boy realizes that he really will not see his preschool friends and teachers again. He probably feels like it is another weekend, and he will see his friends on Monday. Just not the case. On to his teacher's gift....she absolutely loved the Boteh scarf. She could not believed that I made it with my two hands. I found this great hat box to put the scarf into. It was not made from cardboard either, this nice hard plastic. I figured it would be different than a gift bag....boring!
And I wrapped it all pretty with some pastel colored tissue paper...
I ended up using Plymouth Sockatta sock yarn that I had in my stash. I would have preferred a solid color not a color stranded yarn....but since I had it in my stash...I am not complaining. Besides...I think it came out stunning...and I also thought it was cool how the repeated motifs are almost different colors automatically. Could not have planned that even if I tried!
Here is some close ups on the stitches...
I think it does have some nice drape for a scarf...
The Gerber daisies I got from a surprise party and the azaleas are from my yard. Hope you enjoy the PINK SPRING THEME.....

I LOVE the boteh scarf. So pretty. The colors are great!
That turned out really nice. Neat how the colours changed like that. I wonder... boteh is on my list of things to do, just not yet. so many things, so little time. and I love, love love the pink.
