My latest project.

I recently finished my first try at historical knitting.

I made Princess Royal's Scarf from the 1856 issue of Godey's Magazine.

I guess I went with a "half mourning" theme... but then since I was thinking about the War Between the States.. this rather fits... who was not in some level of mourning for a lost loved one at that time.....

I plan to offer this for sale as an effort to raise money for the Children of the Confederacy.....

The pattern was easier than I thought.. and lots of fun.. I am wanting to make another to keep for me... 12 pom poms.. really made this into a lovely scarf...
