two failed attempts

I wanted to knit a scarf from my handspun
roadtrip_2ply_merino_done

so I started an Irish Hiking Scarf:
irish_homespun_ip
but decided it was too striped for cables.

So I ripped it out and started an entrelac scarf:
entrelac_homespun
but it was too wide (super wide scarf or really narrow stole). So I ripped that one out too and started a more narrow entrelac scarf. I finally have a winner (but no photo... I'll get one up soon)

Oh, great choice! Your yarn is perfect for it!

By the way... I'm giving myself fits of guilt -- I was awarded a shiny, pink "Rockin' Girl Blogger" award, and I passed several out (with the caveate that I thought so many other people deserved one). You definitely deserve a "Rockin' Girl Blogger" award, too!
