The First FO of 2010!

I'm not proud. I'll take my FOs any way I can get them. So what if this project has been on the needles for two or three or five years?



It's done!

The pattern is Nancie Wiseman's Textured Squares Scarf (Ravelry link). It's supposed to be shaped like a vee. But I made it a straight piece about two feet long. I'll get more use out of it as a neckwarmer.



The yarn is a thick/thin that I bought at Rhinebeck. No idea of its name. It makes a nice, dense fabric. I think I'll be a little rough with the scarf when I first wash it and maybe it will felt a little bit.

Stay tuned for another five years to see how that turns out!
