chevron
Monday, September 24, 2007Finally finished my chevron scarf from Last Minute Knitted Gifts. I used one and a half skeins of each color. Koigu #802 and #123.
It measures 88 inches long.
When I first started this, I did not like the color combo. Now, I love it.
A look behind the scenes. We spent the day in Morgantown, West Virginia.
These are really so much fun to make. And, wear. Check out the others on flickr.

ReplyDeleteWOW! I love this scarf on you so much. It's making me think I should get one on the needles. I wished I had two hanks of med STR and then I would.
