Mixing the Malabrigo Silky Merino with the black DiVe Zenith worked very well. The striping really helps to prevent any unwanted pooling in the Silky Merino, which I’d unsuccessfully tried to use solo in a different (frogged) project.

I wanted a skinny(er) scarf so I cast on 37 and it worked great with US6 needles: finished dimenions are 4.5” x 62”.

I made a matching hat, but instead of stripes, used my OpArt Mod Mosaic hat pattern with the Silky Merino and Zenith. Super comfy and actually quite warm without bulk.
