\nAgain, thanks to Ailsa for the pics. I really love this scarf!

\nSpecs:
\nPattern: Lacy Kerchief Scarf<\/a> by Lisa Daehlin from Interweave Knits, Summer 2005. (Also available online from their store<\/a>)
\nYarn: Knitabulous FIftyFifty<\/a> (50\/50 Wool\/Silk, fingering weight) One skein, 400yds.
\nNeedles: 3.75mm
\nMods: The pattern is written for worsted weight, and I can’t imagine how huge it would be! It’s 180cm long in the fingering weight on 3.75mm needles! I worked the pattern as written, although I left a repeat out in the middle because I thought I’d run out of yarn. (And I would’ve!)

\nLove the yarn! I asked Ailsa to dye some pink yarn for me ages ago, and this is what she came up with. I don’t know if there was an official colour name. Maybe she should call it “Whining Donna”. In any case, love the colour! Ailsa recently used the FiftyFifty to make her Featherweight cardi<\/a>, and it also looks gorgeous for that project.
\nThe pattern is not too bad, although the lace is an 8 row repeat, and the increases\/decreases happen in 6 row repeats, which gets kind of confusing! I took it along to the Sydney Knitters Christmas get together, and it didn’t work very well with champagne. I thought I was on the home stretch, and on the train on the way home, I realised I’d made a mistake in the pattern about 40 rows back and had to rip it out. Otherwise, it was pretty straightforward and reasonably quick.
\nIt took one skein, so around 400 yards – highly recommend as a sock yarn type stashbuster!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
