My So Called Indecision

I have a Big Project planned for the New Year that will require my attention. That means sitting in a sensory deprivation booth.

So I also needed an easy-peasy travel/knit group project. Big yarn on big needles type of thing. Since I seem to be off socks right now, I figured a scarf is always a good thing.

Celebrated Knitty City's third anniversary by buying some Merisoft Handpainted in colors that I love. Grays, black. pinks, browns. A new scarf to get through these gloomy, gray days would be just the thing!

Thought My So Called Scarf would be a good match of yarn and pattern.

Now I'm not so sure.



Swatched it on three different needles--10.5, 9 and 8. IF I were to make this scarf, I'll go with the 9 or 8.

IF I were to make this scarf. IF I use this stitch.

I sort of like it. . . but something about it isn't working for me. Maybe my eye just has to get used to the stitch.

I have so freakin' much to do today--but, here I sit looking for other stitch patterns. For an easy-peasy scarf. AAARGH!

To be continued.

Then there's the Big Project I'm itching to start. . .
