Only in Southern California will you find a girl photographing herself in a tank top modeling a wool scarf! This scarf is one of my favorite knitted items because:
- The chart pattern was difficult, so it held my attention
- The yarn is yummy yummy soft, easy to work with, & didn't split
- It was a fairly quick knit, so I received instant gratification
- This is the first scarf I've ever knitted for myself
- I LOVE the color! If I were to pick a "signature" color for myself...this is about as close as it gets!

That is so pretty! I love that color too -- it's one of my favorite colors to wear!
I totally understand wanting to go to colder climates to wear knitted goods!
My uncle's getting married at the end of this month in Chicago and all I can think is that Windy City = Scarves!
Beautiful scarf and a gorgeous color. Love it!
It's beautiful! - and I love the color.
Gorgeous!
Love the color! Your scarf turned out wonderful! If I were you I'd be planning trips to colder places, too.
By the way, the gauge of Essential Tweed is pretty close to the gauge of Sock Candy, so I think that it would look great in my Tangled Up In Blue sock pattern. The rib is pretty forgiving in any case. I think that the lace would really show better than it does with a handpainted yarn.
ooooooh I LOVE this. It is really gorgeous
