Th Skinny Scarf is finally done!!! It was a simple plan: size 1 needle, (I knit loosely and continental) cast on 21, seed stitch until desired length or carpal tunnel sets in (whichever comes first), block and fringe. It should have gone far more quickly than it did, but it's always the simple projects that letcha get a bit cocky! This is certainly a beginner project but I wouldn't recommend it as a first. The yarn is really designed to be an accent yarn rather than for garments. (Classic Elite's "Commotion") It's a bit difficult to see what you're doing. Whatever, I finished it!
The second shot of the fringe 'n beads is really quite horrid, but you get the idea. All in all, I'm pleased with the results. My stylist is a petite, Asian woman who will look amazing with this style and color. Hope she likes it...
Now, the sheep can sit back with a cup of coffee (or six...or seven) and spend the rest of the afternoon watching reruns of Mythbusters. Ahhhhh!
