Once I finish this project I plan to no longer be a knitter who does not own a scarf of her own.

I am only doing one pattern repeat across in order to make a scarf instead of a shawl. I also decided not to do the picot along the sides and added a slipped stitch edge instead. I have not decided how to finish it yet, I have live stitches at the bottom to deal with still. In retrospect, I should have added a few rows of garter stitch at the beginning (and end) to help frame the work and make it match the sides but I am not going back now. This yarn is beautiful and feels awesome but it is a pain in the butt to unravel, catching on itself so much.

I keep touching it as it grows, I think I might already be in love with this scarf.

I did twelve repeats of the pattern and then worked a slipped stitch border around it with the dk weight yarn. After doing it facing the wrong side, I learned how hard it is to de-tangle even a smooth yarn from the fuzzy yarn that is Art Fibers Tsuki.

Getting the yarn to detangle from my provisional cast-on (with smooth cotton yarn) was also impressively difficult. I guess I don’t have to worry about this yarn unravelling!

I used the dk yarn leftover from my hat to put on a border; a slip stitch all around then loops all around, which I used to block it tightly.

I do wish the scarf was a little longer, but it should serve its purpose and seems warm.
