Review – Movie World Carnivale

June 17, by Shellie Wilson.

movie-world-carnivale

If you’re planning a trip to Movie World on the Gold Coast then make sure you check out the Carnivale Nights. We were treated to a VIP night where we got to sample the delicious food. My favorite was the Seafood Chowder and the smoked ribs. Food prices on the night will suit everyone’s budget from a Seafood Broil up at $20 or Corn on the cob for $5.  The dancers and music were amazing and our sneak peak at the Parade floats insures a fantastic 9pm Parade also. Pick up your Carnivale tickets on the website.

WHAT TIME? Carnivale starts at 6pm and concludes at 10pm. Some rides are open until 9pm  so lots of fun to be had.

WHEN? Friday 20th , Saturday 21st of June or Saturday the 28th and Sunday 29th of June.

An Easy Scarf to Use Up All Your Scraps

If you’ve been around here long, you know that I’m in a perpetual battle with my stash. I feel like I haven’t bought yarn in years unless I needed it for a specific project. I knit fairly a lot, and crochet some, too, but it feels like my stash never gets any smaller.

It’s not just the unused balls of yarn that are a problem. In fact, maybe a bigger issue is all the odd balls and leftover bits that seem to pile up without any effort. Even though I love scrappy projects (and knit a whole sweater dress with scraps earlier this year) it still feels like a never-ending quest to use up all the little bits.

So I’m always on the lookout for good patterns that are made to use of the extra bits of yarn. If they are super easy, too, that’s so much the better.

So it is with the Lalu Scarf by Sheena Stone. This any yarn, any gauge pattern is designed to use up whatever scraps you have on hand (assuming they’re mostly the same weight or can be held double to make the same weight). 

It’s a tube scarf worked in the round, and she specifically notes that she works it outside in, so the back of the scarf is on the outside as you knit. The needle tips are on the part of the circle farthest away from you as you knit.

It also has an attached I-cord edging, which sounds really time consuming but does give the edges a nice, finished look.

The way the colors are changed as you knit you don’t really need a lot of each color. It would probably be good if you had at least enough of a color to complete one round, but you can change colors more often than every round if you need to because you’re using all your tiny bits.

Grab the free pattern on Ravelry.
