This is what over seven feet of soft, fluffy, ruffled alpaca looks like draped around my neck. Yes, that silly last skein of yarn came in, and I was able to finish my ooh-la-la scarf.
The project has morphed a bit since I first started. It was originally going to have a rather subtle, undulating edge, sort of like this scarf by Twinkle. Then I saw all those fake Fendis on Craftster and knew I had to go with a ruffle.
It's a whole lot of scarf, but I love it!
The Project: Give Him The Ooh-La-La, Scarf
The Yarn: Fable Handknit Pure Baby Alpaca in ethereal blue purchased from pureknits
The Needles: Crystal Palace US6 Circular with as long a cord as I could find
Started: June 25 2006
