Here is the scarf pattern I’ll be using with my alpaca yarn + some photos of my bead work - which is another passion of mine.

On a recent visit to Burlington, MA, I found Edwina’s Nitch, their local yarn store. I found some beautiful alpaca yarn and other fancy specialty yarns to add to my stash. If you’re ever in Burlington, drop by Edwina’s.
