I've been working on scarves! I referenced one that I was working on in a previous blog entry. I finished that one on Tuesday and it looks so cool:
I really like this yarn, Paton's Voodoo. It has a nice balding effect. You can see my nice even stitches while retaining the fluffy-ness of a novelty yarn. The scarf is a tube over 5.5 feet long, 28 stitches per round. It took me a little over a week and 7 balls of yarn to knit. This is my nicest project to date!
... MEANWHILE, BACK AT THE LAB...
I noticed a trend in ladies' fashion; they're accessorizing with scarves a lot now, and I thought a nice long narrow scarf would be be a great summer accessory - I love the irony of wearing a scarf in summer. This knit up in just a day, as it's little more than a ribbon of my Moda Dea Wild!, six stitches wide and over 7.5 feet long.
I considered taking a photo of myself modeling it, to demonstrate how I envision it being worn, but it is way too femme, even for me. I know just the right girl to model this for me and will post a better photo when I get a chance.
