I had a specific request for this scarf (the pattern and colours). The black yarn is incredibly soft and clung nicely to the metallic making it easy to knit. Because a slightly longer narrow scarf than the muffler version had been requested I added a few stitches to the cast on and only worked twenty instead of the twenty-five rows of the pattern. I would have preferred a fluffier effect but the fabric is wonderfully soft and drapes well.
