I call this the 'potato chip' scarf. I guess it reminds me of Pringles.
I made this for my neighbor who takes care of the cats when we are gone--she is so good to them and wont let me pay her so I knit for her. The color is perfect and the ruffling of the scarf will look wonderful on her. A bit feminine.
This was a learning scarf...I hadn't increased as much as this pattern called for: c/o 220, then increases to 440 then to 660. No problem. Then, the second half of the scarf is picking up 220 stitches. Not my strength so I sat at Starbucks with a lot of time and no distractions. First try, 220 dead on. It feels like I am finally understanding knitting and can do it on my own. Confidence is a good thing.
This yarn is sooooo soft and wonderful. I would work with it again...uh...already have more in the stash.
