UK scarf


This is my real current project... the one I'm likely to finish. It's a UK scarf with yarns purchased from ReBelle. They're 75% acrylic, 25% cotton. They're easy enough to work with. As you can see, I am not weaving in my yarn ends as I go... that's because I've been mostly working on it at school, and I'm not taking a yarn needle to school.



I like the "professional" side, but I also kind of like the reverse. It reminds me of dishtowels we used to have, with the funky lines that interrupt the other color.



I got the pattern here: http://knuckleheadmusings.blogspot.com/2007/09/team-sport-scarf.html. It is really simple! I changed the number of rows worked in garter stitch, just to make it look a little more even, and I used smaller yarn. The one over there is better =) But this one will do.

I don't have a particular recipient in mind yet- especially considering it will be warm outside (I hope) by the time it's finished.
