Notes

Holy Cow, this yarn is so delicious! It’s feels great on the hands.

I’m working with two strands together on a size 11. The stitch definition, while not ultra crisp, is still excellent. The cables stand out very nicely.

The scarf is working up fast, considering that I’ve spent only about an hour on it so far and have about 12”.

Well, it’s been such a warm winter in New York City that I put the scarf down to do some charity knitting, but my husband started to pout about it, so over the last few days I finished and blocked it. It came out great and just in time, as it turns out--it was darned cold this morning! DH called from work to tell me how warm the scarf is and how much he appreciates it.

The stitch closeup captures the color accurately.
