These are my two recent FOs, both woolen shorts for my toddler for summer. We use cloth nappies, and when treated with lanolin these will act as a water resistant cover for the nappies.
I've just CO a dress for my six year old, and will be starting Xmas gift knits too - my sister wants some crochet coasters and mum wants a pair of Fetching fingerless mittens, I gave a pair to my sister a few years ago.0 -

To be fair I didn't buy that yarn- mum donated it to me when I was south visiting her! It is nice colours though- Streamers from Poundstretchers.

The pattern is on the link that you have given us above. Click on the tab that says 'DETAILS' and there are instructions and photos to show you what to do. Good luck - once you start you'll find that a scarf knits up really quickly!0
