Scarf is Done!!!

Yeah, now that it's warmer out and he doesn't need it, it's finally done. I need to wash and block it, though. It looks pretty good. Doesn't look like the picture, because that's a darker yarn, but the pattern is nice. It's VERY wide and VERY long. He wanted it long, anyway so he could wrap it around his face and neck. Hopefully, I'll get off my ass and take a picture of sometime soon, along with all the other UFOs that I have.

Holy Long Scarf!!

Thank goodness there isn't ANYONE at work this week. This scarf is taking FOREVAH! One row is at least 20 minutes. My hands are tired from holding the tiny little needles with ALL those stitches on them. It's easier to purl than it is to knit in this pattern. The slipped stitches on the knit side are harder to pick up as they're twisted. It looks REALLY cool though and I'll have to adapt that edge stitch for other scarfs. It's a nice finishing touch.
