Notes

I have always wanted to try a bit of knitting with stainless steel yarn, so I bought some at VK Live! in NYC. A pattern for “Kusha Kusha” was free with the yarn purchase, but I liked the oblong triangular shape of Hakusa more.

The finished scarf (small shawl) is really unique and can be worn in lots of different ways. I have already started the smaller (neckerchief) version with the remaining yarn. I think that I will have enough.*

For more notes on this project see my blog post “My Scrunchable FO”.

  • 10-14-13: I did have enough yarn remaining to complete a small Hakusa.
