Something to ponder.

I was recently gifted two skeins of Tilli Tomas worsted silk, about 500 yards. I would like to do some kind of small wrap or larger scarf, preferably lacy. I really like Clapotis but I only have ~half the recommended yardage. So, I'm open to ideas. I don't know, maybe it needs to be a little bag, or a fancy pillow.

I will bring the yarn on Tuesday!

ETA: Ooooh, this might be perfect. I may just get it!

Have you looked at Cozy yet?

It calls for 784 yards, but you could make it a little narrower and it would probably work out.

I'm planning on making one with 500 or so yards of an aran merino/silk blend I'm getting in April.

Ahhhh that is really pretty also! So, in theory, I could use bigger needles and do less stitches to get a longer one right? I'm not thinking huuuuge or anything, just maybe size 9s instead of 8s.

I've always loved http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/versatility. Or http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/corset-tank-top by Annie Modesitt.

Basically these are my most favorite patterns. and i fail at links today.

Also, I want your friends. Who gives away Tilli Tomas?
