Scarf Finished


Well, I finally finished the gathered scarf. Not a lot of time for knitting lately, but this was a fun project. I made it out of Berrocco Comfort Sock Yarn on size #4 and #8 needles. I cast on 60 stitches instead of 48 and decreased to 30 for the garter stitch rows. I used the whole skein and the scarf is 5" by 57". I like to make scarves 3" or more longer, but did not want to use a new skein for 24 more rows. I am pleased with the results. Happy Knitting.

The scarf is very pretty. The color is a nice choice. I also like the collection of nurses, they remind me of my mother. I nominated you for an award for your inspiring posts.
Thanks, Gayle
