Lacy Scarf

During the summer I started a lacy scarf pattern with some yarn that I had won from Nicola when she had a give away on her blog.  This scarf went through a metamorphisis, probably twice.   The pattern I picked out needed more yarn (which I didn't figure out till I had started it), but I could not find any of the same brand in and around where I lived.

I originally started out following the pattern, a rare thing for me!  Then I unravelled it and started it again on larger needles but didn't like how it was turning out.  So, it was time for me to tweek the pattern to what I had.  I narrowed it down to two repeats of the pattern and knitted until I ran out of yarn.

 I love how it turned out as  long, thin scarf that I can double and poke the ends through the loop. Inuky makes a good model for the scarf as it is so hard to take a picture of myself wearing it.
It feels so soft and silky on my neck that I'm waiting for cooler weather to wear it more often.
