Notes

Two different colors of variegated purple Rios, 1 dark & 1 light. The edges curl because they’re mostly stockinette, but I don’t mind that on this scarf, so far. The ribbed entrelac is only on the ends. I’m not enjoying knitting this scarf & don’t know why. Maybe it’s the issue of carrying the yarn up the edges. I LOVE the Malabrigo yarn, so it can’t be that.

7/19/2013: Picked this up again & am enjoying it this time. It’s fast & easy. Yarn feels good. Bought this yarn at the Malabrigo plant in Montevideo, Uruguay in 2010. Hope to finish this in 2013!@

8/26/13: Didn’t estimate well. Ran out of color B for end entrelac. Frogged end entrelac & a section of color B & am finishing up.
