Notes

114 ends
114” warp (STR)
10 dpi heddle

My calculations tell me this should end up 70” long by 10” wide. We’ll see… (eta: it turned out 14” longer than expected and I still had some weft yarn left but not much. I need to re-think the way I calculate things for future projects…)

3/30/10: Wow. This is turning out gorgeous so far. The CTH yarn looks incredible.

4/2/10: I love how fast weaving goes. I’m done already…although I did stay up until 2 a.m. last night working on it and it’s 2 a.m. again right now. I finished a few hours ago but decided I wanted to do all the twisty fringe tonight so I could be completely done. It took about 2 1/2 hours to do all the finishing. I LOVE this scarf. I LOVE the length. I LOVE the width. I LOVE the fringe. I LOVE the yarn. I LOVE the color. Yay me!
