A dear friend gave me three hanks of Blue Sky Alpacas Melange for my birthday in October, and although I should have been cranking out the Christmas gifts right about then, I dropped everything and started this Wavy Razor Shell Scarf the very next day.
I’ve had this pattern in my queue for years, but the yarn was so dreamy to knit with that I didn’t mind taking my time on this project. I added an extra pattern repeat (CO 53 st.) to make the scarf a bit wider. It’s pretty much the perfect size in both length and width. More pics on Flickr.
This photo is also my first self portrait for the 52 Weeks project on Flickr. 52 self portraits? Eep! My reluctance to participate is the very thing that is motivating me to participate…masochistic as that may be.
Nice knitting work.
As you say, I would have difficulty completing self portraits for the 52 Weeks project. Glad others have courage though.
gorgeous scarf!! And the 52 weeks sounds like a fantastic project, good luck!!
The scarf looks great – and it’s actually a really beautiful photo too. Captured color and texture perfectly!
