Yesterday, I finished that scarf I had mentioned in my list of WIPs... it's from the yarn that Susan gave me for Christmas - and I love it. Henry does too:
Details:
Pattern: 2006 Pattern a Day calendar, Friday March 3, Elegant Slipped Stitch Mesh Scarf
Yarn: Collenette, Tagliatelli. colorway Jamboree
Needles: Size 11
Comments - When I got this yarn, I really didn't know what I was going to do with it. This is the yarn that got me nervous that I already had too many scarves. I got over it. And I'm usually not a fan of ribbon yarn - but the way they dyed this yarn made it so much fun to work with! I swear the colors changed every 3 inches from one totally saturated color to the next. The actual pattern I used may not have been the best choice for the yarn as it doesn't really show up in the crazy yarn, but the pattern made me think of my beautiful ribbon yarn, and gave me an idea to knit it - so I just went with it. Final comment is that this pattern tells you to knit the scarf to 48 inches - to me that is pretty short for a 'real' scarf... so I knit mine to 50... Because I wanted to have enough yarn for fringe. And I did.
Still debating on adding the fringe.... I think I will eventually.
TGIF!
