spillyjane knits: You Handsome Scarf

You Handsome Scarf

The yarn is from Japan and was acquired in Toronto. The resulting Handsome Scarf was knit at home, here in Windsor. At present he is winging his way across the Atlantic to his future home in London (or at the very least is currently at YYZ, awaiting departure.)

Though Spring is officially underway in London, the scarf Knows -- as every scarf Knows -- that the cold will come again. He has been practising patience since he was four mere balls of yarn languishing in the Stash; what's another double handful of months to a scarf? He can wait.

He's six feet long and eight inches wide. He's good looking and he knows it.

Happy trails, you Handsome Scarf.

Unknown said...: Thank you, everyone...the pattern is actually a farrow rib (my all-time favourite basic-scarf rib.)

I will be releasing the pattern as a freebie very soon. It's a great all-purpose, highly-adapatable scarf.; April 6, 2011 at 10:22 a.m.
