Notes

I bound off using TECHknitter’s fake tubular bind-off.

Made mostly for stashbusting - I may dye it red when I’m done and donate it to the Red Scarf Project. Yarn held double.

Each rep adds about 6”. I wasn’t sure I’d have enough yarn, so I’m trading another raveler for one more skein.

The scarf is lovely and squishy and I will definitely make another someday.

8/7: Partial skein (which I think was about 40 gms) ran out a few rows into the 5th rep. I think I’m going to go ahead and break the other strand too, and start up with the two whole balls. Then I’ll have the ~10 gm partial in case of emergency.

12/5: Will I manage to finish this by the end of December, to get Nerd Wars credit? We shall see. Currently about 75% done.

6/23: I WILL finish this scarf by the end of June! I only have enough yarn for 1-2 more reps so it shouldn’t take too much more time. Technically I could end it now but I want to use up as much of the yarn as possible.

6/24: Done and blocking!
