I'm sure some of you could use a break from the Slovakia coverage, besides I'm dying to show off Eyeleen's Herringbone Rib scarf, cleverly wrapped around a pineapple. Who would have thought... great presentation. The scarf is drop dead gorgeous if you ask me, of course I'm biased. She did six pattern repeats, using a lighter weight yarn, details on her blog Knitting by Eye.
I'm still getting steady requests for the pattern, still available for the price of a comment. Photos of the finished product are greatly appreciated and will be added to the gallery on my sidebar.
I'll pay up! I'd love to have that pattern, it is lovely.

What beautiful colors - I've never heard of that yarn. I have yet to see a yarn that isn't wonderful in your scarf pattern.

Wow, those colors really showcase the pattern to its fullest! I'd love to have a go at it... may I have the pattern? Thanks!

Well, now I can't resist any longer. PLEASE send me your gorgeous scarf pattern! This photo is really great. I need another scarf pattern like a hole in my head, but yours is just to gorgeous. Thank you!

Interesting colorway; that looks so warm and cozy! I would love a copy of the pattern, please! It might be my next project, depending on how long it takes me to decide on a yarn! :-)
Thank you!

The scarf is lovely. I'd really like to have the pattern. My husband has asked for a scarf and I think he would appreciate this particular one.
Kind regards from Anna in Sweden

Ooh! That's pretty; she did a great job on it. I, too, would love the pattern. Pretty please....

Oh I truly enjoyed reading about your vacation (so far). Such beautiful country and wonderful stories. The two ladies who were held in a prison camp - what beauty they possess. I loved your description of feeling like a burrito (that cracked me up). Your description of the two ladies with white soft serve hair and their smiles removing the iciness was so clear I could just picture them. And the fire alarm - too funny.
Your knitting is gorgeous as are you and your family. Thanks for sharing it all. I'm off to shlopp gutt (spelling?) and I'm of German descent. *laughing*

I happened upon your blog by chance. I'm a fairly new knitter and would love to try your scarf. I'm just finishing my first pair of socks and learning on two circular needles. Have a great holiday. Karen

I should love to have a copy of your scarf pattern please! TIA

I would love to have a copy of the pattern! I had to look closely when you said "wrapped around a pineapple" but then I saw the wee little guy! Is that what happens when you plant the top of a pineapple?
Posted by: Jennifer | March 15, 2007 at 01:33 PM
I totally agree, it is drop dead gorgeous. The variation in color along with the pattern design is a total hit. I'd love the pattern if you are still sending it out. Many thanks!
Posted by: Diana | March 15, 2007 at 09:03 PM

Hi Li, I personally haven't mind the Slovakia coverage but then I like to travel, even if vicariously!
I am so impressed with Eyeleen's scarf, though, that I just had to email and get the pattern. I have some beautiful Lorna's Laces that I think will look beautiful done this way.
Happy Knitting and I hope you recover from your travel withdrawal soon.

I love your scarf and would love your pattern. :) I just finished "my so called scarf" and I was out looking for a new pattern that I would like to knit, just happen to get to you blog. Thank you for sharing. Happy Knitting.

Hi ! I discovered your blog and I'm very interessed with this pattern, because i'd like to make a ribbed scarf for my boy friend, and this one looks very beautiful. I knit very slowly, it takes me two months, most of the times, to make a scarf (veeeeery slow ^^ ), so by the way, I have to knit only patterns I found REALLY georgeous ! Thanks by advance!!
(Excuse my schoolish english, I'm french (... and blonde)!)

I love the pattern!

Hello! I've been a lurker on blogs for over a year, and this is the first time I have posted a comment. I love your scarf pattern and have some of Axelle's yarn in my stash and would love your pattern. Thanks in advance!
Posted by: Ann | April 06, 2007 at 03:08 PM
I love the scarf. It looks so soft and cushy. May I have the pattern please?
Thx.

Love your scarf.....My college age grandson would definitely wear this scarf. Am I too late for a pattern?
