Notes

Blog: Leftovers

Thanks to my daughter Melissa for taking time from walking on the beach during her vacation to become my model. You look wonderful!

I made this scarf swap with stash yarn and remnants from other projects. It really turned out great - even my husband commented favorably “it’s just neat looking” and that never happens! May have to make another to keep for myself. This pattern starts out really quick but does seem to lag as your garter stitch count increases to around 200 stitches per row. I made 27 points and it is a good size but not too bulky for Texas climate. I think I will block it just to ensure that the scarf is as soft as it can be and to get the points looking sharp as possible.
